if you know take 2 cubes,

- constrain pose cube2 to cube 1
- bring down the blend weight
- make a cilinder child of cube1
- constraint directon cilinder to cube 2
- you have something simular.

Talking about hidden stuff...has the Easter Egg been updated with latest
people involved?

make an empty txt file and call it: ShowMeTheTeam.dsc
Import it in XSI.

Yeah, there is. A good way to find them is open a custom toolbar, right
click and 'Customize' and take a look through the commands.

I keep meaning to figure out 'Run Performance Test'...

Wow ! great thing thanks Adam.



Is this documented somewhere and does this means XSI has other goodies
like this that just need a little line to show off ??

A quick easy way to use the spring function is


Draw a single bone 2D chain



Select Effector,

SHIFT Sel Root



Run the following



ApplyOp "Spring" , ,2



Move the root to see the lag effect on the effector

To control the Spring properties

Select the end effector and open up a ppg on its Global Transform

Lots o controls



the values in the PPG are veeerrrry sensitive



I don't know why it isn't exposed.... maybe it wasn't quite finished..



But it works well, especially chaining them together.



Adam

There is a built-in spring operator in XSI since v3.0. it is well hidden
and doesn't show up in a menu, but it's there.
mmh I guess that wasn't particularly helpfull, now was it...

Hi all.

I need to make a sort of spring-like motion, like following another
object with an adjustable delay and mass, damping, restore force, etc.

Does this exists somewhere as a tool or script ?



Any idea ?



Thanks



jm
