I dont recall very well... but maybe there is a dampening attribute. Actually, i take that back, what you should do is press F1, and look at the maya help... if you go to the reference section on dynamics, it'll give you a play by play of what each attribute does. That might give you an idea of what settings you need to change to get decent results. :D

Gremlin is on a roll with the F1 replies. Though he is correct in doing so most of the time.
