How can i add a spring like in car suspension
Okay I’m working on a giant robot and was wondering if after to to that, could you anchor or parent the pivot point to a joint in a skeleton rig?
Hi Mike, is there a way to limit the extension of the piston rod? Ideally in a manner that allows the piston to be oriented at any angle and still maintain a max extension behaviour (i.e. not using the limit information tab under attribute editor, as this only works based on world coordinates).
Wicked Tutorial!
Could you Do an Extension of this for piston like rig with multiple averaging parts.
So like a piston if it had a bunch of collapsing sections to it.
I've tried to figure this out myself but i end up with a lot of cyclical errors.

Woah, Constraint-ception. I didn't know that was possible 🙂
Can I ask you a question?
Let's create a shape, like a cylinder, extrude it a little bit, inverse normals, enable backface culling and set colors for inner shape and an "outline" shape.
The big question is: how do i render this thing so the backface culling effect will be true in render? Is it possible to animate a character like that?
Thank you!
