create a deform chain with ICE siflex ?

Post by fabilabo » 10 Feb 2012, 17:00

Hi,

i tried the very nice plugin "mt spring" for making spring deform object.
But i wonder if it is possible to make same deformation with ice siflex ?

I tried to make a linear curve and deform it by siflex, works good but i cant use this deformed curve to enveloppe an object.
Any idea ?

i tried cluster with center on curve point but they dont follow the curve.

Object to Cluster constraint not ClusterCenter. For each point on the curve create a cluster. Then create a null for each cluster and do a Constrain > Object to Cluster.

Not sure how you'd calculate the upvector for them though.
