This looks great. Do you have any documentation showing how to use it though? I downloaded the files and tried to animate, but I think I'm missing something because it doesn't seem to work the way it's supposed to.

Thanks,

To be more specific, one of the rings is broken. The one called rCube_shp_SBox_MASTER, which is supposed to rotate the front face doesn't seem to work.

Thanks,

October 15, 2009, 10:35 am Goran Doesnt function under Max2010? score 4/5
Hey mate, great tutorial!!

But when i load that scene into Max2010 and start to animate
the cube, the rig seems to be broke.

When i press the button stick objects, it seems that some
minicubes are transfering to another point.

Does i need to load the scripts before i start the scene?

Looking forward for your answer mate.


best regards

Goran
