@Justice magagane at the moment we are busy with the production of the sprites project, maybe in the future

SOLVED: Changed Transform Pivot Point to Individual Origins instead of Bounding Box Centre. (Located at the top of the screen)
Hi guys, i'm having a problem with the rig in that i can't use it to rotate all three points of the pendulum as per the video at 04:34.
If I select all of the FK parts of the pendulum and rotate, they all rotate together and remain straight, instead of individually as per 04:34.
Any ideas?

*@myanimationadventure* Hi!!! that is because you have to set up your transform pivot point to individual origins and at the moment you have it at 3d cursor

Hello. New to blender. I thought that animations like these are done using physics simulations. Am I wrong? If no, why you choose to do it manually? thanks.

*@Aleksey Novykov* hi!! welcome!!! depends on the production and what you are animating, if it is a prop or hair you can do it with simulation, but if it is part of the character maybe you need to animated by hand.... Anyway this is a learning exercise to learn how drag and follow works, and that principle you can apply to other things like a leg or an arm (that is kinda like a swing) Hope this was helpful

Nice tutorial showing the thought process. If one practices with the rig and do your own version, then you learn much faster!
