Hello everyone,

I am working on a short movie where I would like to use an APEX rig for the spider (main character).

I created manually one leg, and now I am looking for a way to make it 'procedural' or to work with tags to create 7 more

the main reason that I don't use MultyIK is that I would like to control the angle of the last section of the leg and to be always on one plane

if anyone can help me I will buy him/her a beer

scene file is attached

I did check Spider from Content-Library, but it just have IK solver for complete leg, as i mention before i need to have more control over tip of the leg, that's why i stared this post

Hi, unfortunately this version of the multiik doesnt support {segments} in the name of the parent. That would make things a lot simpler.

What I have done to work around that for this example is to write a little script that will parent the ik target to a tip control.
hope this helps
