I'm trying to rig this character but cannot seem to get it to work.I keep getting bone heat weighting error and I've tried deleting doubles, scaling the model,and any other thing I've come across but alas, nothing works. I'm fairly new to blender so if you find a something that works please be thorough and gentle in explaining it. I'd greatly appreciate if someone could rig it and send that model back to me :)

    $\begingroup$ The suit in the file you've posted has duplicate vertices, interior faces, and non-manifold geometry, all of which would make it difficult for automatic weights to work. But it also doesn't have an armature to use in rigging the suit. Could you go back to a version where you have an armature that's not working and post it instead? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Yes your link works, I don't know why there was an error message, but as Marty says, the armature is not here $\endgroup$

Apply the scale of your armature, select the mesh, switch to Edit mode, select all and press M > Merge by Distance with a Distance of 0.001, it may remove some vertices but it will fix your problem.
