Why not ask? I'm always curious to know what people are doing with
IRIS Performer. How else can we know how to prioritize the many new
features that we're planning.
:I'm building a modeler and have implemented kinematics. The only
:problem is that my inverse kinematics is giving me problems.
Is this modeler something that will be made public?
:Does anyone know where I could go to get some source or something
:to give me a clue as to where I went wrong?
Here are a few references that you might consult. You've probably
already read these, but if you have missed any, you'll want to see
how others approached the problem. As Isaac Newton said, "If I
have seen further than others, it is because I have stood on the
shoulders of giants."
[If you went to the SIGGRAPH course #14 that several of us in the
IRIS Performer group spoke at, you'll recognize the quote -- sorry
for the repitition.]
