Rope rig (Spline IK) global scale issue

#1

I’m having an issue with my rope rig which has a spline IK, would rotate and translate fine by global control which is parented to the spline IK GRP but would not scale correctly as seen in photo n. 2

I have tested all groups and only the Skeleton grp scales right with mesh on it’s own.

The rest of the groups don’t scale in parallel to each other.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix?

Many thanks!

Hi buddy, try something similar but didn’t get any way out yet as of now. Any update on this?

Looks like you need to connect the scale to the joints too. The group containing the joints, not the joints themselves (because the segment scale compensate). That might help, but I am not sure about that. the idea is that you need to scale the clusters- you did that. Then you need to scale the joint gorups too. But is essential to leave out the ik curve, not to scale or move it in any way.
