Hi guys,
80% of my animation is done and now I'm stuck on this for days. I have this pillar that will be put in this upright position via hydraulics and sliding joints.
What you see is a final position. It will be aslope about 30°to the left and then put to 90°.
I connected my hierarchy, applied HD IK solver and set all the joints, right angles, those that slide to slide, etc. All correct. But still I'm unsure how to apply HD solver, which part is my end, or which is my start. I want to rotate the pink part so all other parts - hydraulics, and joints slide and rotate accordingly. So I tried to start from both ends, but neither work. Right now I can't click and rotate the object marked pink. Also most of the time my rails move too...I tried setting the terminator but I'm doing something wrong there too.
I know it's complex but if someone is really good with IK maybe they can explain basics what to do.
thank you!
