But this monster is gonna be half-sliced when it's attacked. so I made a new rig with bones from spine to upper( down from pelvis is biped) with a half-cutted model. And here is a…
Hello, I've been banging my head against the wall for like 5 hours now and still can't figure out a way to make a ball roll with wire parameters. I can do it in 2 separate axis' but the problem shows itself when they are combined. I used all my math knowledge as well but no luck. I have to use it for the wheel of my robot…
