Hello List,
I got a funky problem. I need to make a ropey-type thing that can swing around
(like the tail in XSI), and then be able to wrap around an object like Indiana
Jones' whip where it can sorta coil itself around a character. I'm thinking of
blending between a dynamic sim and then switching to a hand-animated rig where
I can blend between the two. I'm trying things like blending constraints and
sacrificing pigeons, but they're not working out too well. I think I'm getting
farther with the pigeons. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
--Lu
