Thank you for creating and sharing these resources. I was surprised to see that there is no 'erik setup' graph available. all of them bring in the pre-rigged FBX, when one wants to inspect the from-scratch setup with the un-rigged model to see how that all is best-done in with KineFX.
agree, however the core methods with the furdude will work. There can be some issues due to updates, but you could try deleting the control handles and probably will get the joint handles working.
(I’d prefer to see an update to that tutorial if suitable)
