mk, the scene is essentially where a gear is spinning, and hooked up to it is a linear pump which moves in and out. a similar set up has a pump expanding to push a beam along a hinge (creating a pneumatics system)
so, how does one do this? i know i should be looking in f1 and i probably will anyways, but time, alas, is limited (really should be done tonight, need to start rendering tomm) and i don't know where to look. i THINK i need to be in position controllers, perhaps look at constraint? i remember doing one tut for max 5 which involved a slider, which would be ince.. honestly, i think i have all the pieces i need i just can't really remember what to do, its been a while since i did that tut. so how would one set up soething like this?
tks.
