Hi, I was under the impression that the KFbxMesh::GetControlPoints() array was indexed by the KFbxCluster::GetControlPointIndices() of every cluster. For example, cluster->GetControlPointIndices()(i) would be the index into the mesh->GetControlPoints() array for the cluster->GetControlPointWeights()(i) weight. Am I wrong?

edit: replaced index brackets with parenthases

You are right.
The control points indexes in cluster are indexes of control points of mesh.

Thanks, then something else must be the problem…
Is the node pointer returned by KFbxCluster::GetLink() the same pointer throughout the program? For example, If I extracted the skeleton data earlier in the program, and then used GetLink() to find the matching bone, would that work?

Sure it will work.
That’s what GetLink() is supposed to do. :)

If you notice anything abnormal, please let us know.
