Essentials v8: ParentHoldLink
Added 2021-02-27 17:29:58 +0000 UTCYour most essential MacGruber tools in a convenient single VAR package. Version 8 adds a toggle to the ParentHoldLink plugin to change its behavior, making it possible for characters to pick up and put down objects, like in this video.
Changelog
- ParentHoldLink: Added option to prevent the plugin from resetting it's relative position/rotation when it is deactivated and then reactivated. This makes the atom snap into position when turned on, but it prevents unintentional drift/misalignment when doing crazy things like picking up a toy, playing with it and putting it back afterwards. You can just turn on/off the atom (or the plugin) at the right time in your animation and get what you expect.
