JOINTS ON CURVE – OVERVIEW

The Joints On Curve tool dynamically builds joint chains along a curve path.

Quickly build rope, tail, tentacle, or other joint chains in a button-click.

THE PROBLEM

Maya does not have a tool to build and orient joints along a curve quickly.

This tool is interactive. See your changes live.

Each chain remembers it’s settings.
