I have a hair figure (with bones), and the bone names are something like “J_Sec_Hair1_02”, “J_Sec_Hair2_02”, “J_Sec_Hair3_02”, and so on.
Currently, these bones don’t have weights, and I want to assign weights to all of them.
My process is as follows:
Select “J_Sec_Hair1_02” (bone).
Go to Geometry Selection > Select By > Face Groups > “J_Sec_Hair1_02” (Face Groups).
Then, go to Weight Editing > Fill Selected.
This process successfully assigns a weight to the “J_Sec_Hair1_02” bone.
The issue is there are many bones, and I want to repeat this process for each one until all bones have weights.
I need a script that automatically detects all bones under the currently selected figure and performs the above steps, assigning weights to each bone based on its corresponding face group.
This is chatgpt’s version log error and the script

This is a script that could save my life. I have no understanding of Daz script (or JavaScript), and since ChatGPT couldn’t fulfill my request (it keeps making errors), I have no choice but to shamelessly come here to seek help.
