Maya - Stretchy Joints

[@AliawooYT]

My God, THANK YOU! My instructor for my rigging class has a rather severe language barrier, this has possibly just saved my assignment

[@samratjorjis7818]

OMG never thought I could actually understand scripting this easily. thanks sir

hello! fantastic tutorial but i have a bug once i get into the connection edittor, when i connect the scales of the joints it make the knee shake when i move the leg, i don't know how to fix the issue and i'm starting to loose my mind!

I figured it out if anyone else has this problem, parent the second locator to the hand ctrl not to the IK

All this seems horribly convoluted and needlessly complex. Just for one simple stretchy leg.

Hi, as you are aware, there are many ways of making the same thing in Maya. This video is part of a course material that I teach where several things are covered at the same time. In this course we are teaching process, not shortcuts. That said, if you have a reference to a different video where you feel the process is better, placing a link to it along with your comment would be great help to other viewers. Cheers

@@iguanazo12 Sorry, I wasn't trying to say anything bad about your method of doing it. By all means, you have done well explaining it. I was just frustrated that in 2022, rigging is still extremely complicated process.

@@Kinkoyaburi hahaha! No worries, and i agree with you.
