Need a very simple DTS object.

by Brian Richardson · in Jobs · 02/08/2005 (9:00 am) · 4 replies

I'm writing a little resource about the 3space skeleton system and how to use it to make more dynamic objects. For the example I'm building a very simple spring object. You'll be able to apply forces to the spring points and it'll react like a spring would.

I need a little bit of help actually creating the object though. This should take an experenced modeler like ten minutes. I gave it a shot in blender and my cylinder looks funny. ;)

Ideally the object would be a cylinder with four nodes called "spring0", "spring1", "spring2", and "spring3". Spring 0 should be at the bottom of the cylinder. Each node should be rigged with the quarter of the cylinder that it's closest to. So spring0 will control the bottom of the cylinder and spring3 will control the top.

There's no payment offered, but you'll get a thanks in my resource/article.

Thanks!

10 minutes is overstating it a bit. ;) Too bad I'm at the office with no access to my tools. :(
