Hello out there,

Can anyone help me out with an working example of the IKSolver CHOP? Would love to be able to put it to use inside a larger CHOP network, but I just can't get any sane results out of it, even with an ObjectChain CHOP and a simple two-bone setup…

Thanks very much!

I second this. I can't even really figure out exactly what to put in the inputs. I've read the docs, but I don't find them super clear. Like what exactly is the difference between the source and rest input? And do you need object paths or just arbitrary names?

Does anyone have any insight on this one?

Well, as it turns out (and if it ever does turn out it will right after I make a forum post) I found an example file. It can be found on the help page for the ObjectChain chop, if you scroll down to the bottom where it says examples. Note you have to open the help page inside Houdini to see it (right click on an ObjectChain chop and click on help). The example file is called SimpleIKSolver, although it is interestingly not to be found on the help page for the actual IKSolver chop ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
