I'm using a procedural shader (Cycles) on a model that I've rigged for animation.

When I pose the bones, the texture seems to be projected based on the world space and doesn't move with the deformation.

I saw someone fix this in a YT video a while ago, but now I can't find it.

If you UV-unwrap your model and use the UV coordinates as "Vector" input for your procedurals, you should be fine independent of deformation. You will probably need to readjust the scale of some of the procedural textures after using a different set of input coordinates, though. enter image description here
