Hey guys this is my first major character, he is Puppetmon from Digimon, been working on him for about 2 months has a school project, havent fully finished him yet will be finished in a few weeks. The modeling and textureing are pretty much finished and now I'm animating him. He is rigged and moves pretty good but my problem is his ropes, I need to get the ropes to move with his hand and feet while they arer still attrached to the boards. I have tried IK splines and other parenting technquies can't really get it right, mostly with keeping both ends of the rope constrained. Any advice would be helpful and I would appericate it.

I just saw that there was a new reply.

Well, I had the same problems so I now upload pics
to where I have my homepage. go to www.redrival.com
It's free but you have a limited amount of space.
I am having a hard time getting the pic to show up when I
put a link to it on this site. So I just make a quick .html page
in flash until I make it work the normal way.
