Hi Stephen, thanks for the reply. I have looked at that and it works fine with particles but on an object the same thing can't apply. Here's where I have got to with my understanding, which is probably flawed. Forces in particles are added using the simulate particles node, which is like get

Not sure how helpful this is but it shows how to drive the kinematics of a 'Follower' null with a spring constraint acting on its ICE Kinematics. It requires a simulated tree. I don't think there's any way of producing the same effect without simulation. With only a modeling stack you only

Hi I'm fairly new to Softimage having recently jumped ship from 3dsMax. I've made a few compounds, but this one I'm trying has really got me stumped. I'm trying to create a spring constraint using ICE, but rather than using particles, I want to add the compound to a null, this null will then be
