Is SideFX planning to do a new rigging with Houdini series covering Kinefx? I assume the 9 hour rigging with Houdini 16.5 series is now basically obsolete as no one will want to use object level rigging. I would love to see a comprehensive beginners rigging tutorial covering kineFX. I haven't found much in my searches so far. Anyone?

This tutorial seems quite good, especially for the basics and someone starting out

If you're interested Nathan you can check my channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXGPZ5ruDfeTUDQf_xUnJ2w [www.youtube.com] I've been posting videos and some rigging tips regarding KineFx and Kinefx_tools.
KineFx_tools it's a GitHub https://github.com/kamilhepner/kinefx_tools [github.com] repo where I'm putting HDAs, scripts and example hip files, you can browse those. Can be a valuable learning resource.

Cheers
