 Ciao Simon,

 In truth the spring operator already exsist from XSI 3.5...
 You can apply it in this way...

 '********************************** Begin Script
 Set oColl = CreateObject("xsi.collection")

 PickObject "Effector",, oEff

 PickObject "Root",, oRoot

 oColl.Add oEff

 oColl.Add oRoot

 Set oP = ApplyOp( "Spring" , oColl )(0)

 InspectObj oP

 '********************************** End Script

 Limitation:

 If you set SpringScale to 0 you will lost Spring
 The springravity follow the -Y axis of chain root

 Bye bye

   Hello all,

   

   I've been using the new tails in xsi 4 for a while now and think they are
fantastic! Lots of possibilities there for animation.

   However I was wondering if there is anyway to apply them to a chain of
bones? I know you can create them from a curve (I guess it just does a chain
from curve first). So is there any way to skip this first stage and get a "pick
bones" ?

   

   Regards,


   Si.
