Record Pivot Rotation?

[onslaught]

I understand that it is important to use record pivot rotation when doing your rig, but the only problem is when I do Record pivot Rotation, it changes around the position of my character deforming it real bad. I also use the record rest position first
before I use record pivot rotation. Is there a way a to fix that problem so my bones won't deform while using record pivot rotation?. Thanks in advance.:confused:

are you re-key framing the bone after you do the record pivot rotation if not this might account for your weird deformation.

always record it on frame 0. Then go back and zero out all your rotation channels.
