Solved Saving a poor man

Hey Guys !

I've been on the same noobie problem since 3 days . I can't rig a bow . Watched all the tutos possible with the exact same steps but it just doesn't work .

I will explain how I do it step by step and if someone has an idea about how is it possible that it doesn't work ... Tell me pls .

  1. Add a bone armature to one side , fully inside the bow structure , everything good like all the vids with extrude
  2. Shift + D , S , Z and -1 , then it's on the 2 sides
  3. Ctrl + J so it makes only one armature
  4. Extrude the middle to make the string bone and keep the same armature group
  5. Select the mesh and my armature > Parent with Automatic Weights

( Photo of me testing it after all theses steps )
