Description

I modified the ARingClone mcg to have a twist with it and end up with a rope maker. Basically, you create 1 really tall cylinder, apply Vu_mcgRope modifier to it and define how many strands of rope and the amount of twist. Apply a PathDeform to your rope to shape it with a spline.

That's it. Any questions...I'm just trying my hands on MCG for the first time. It's free, of course. Vu. vusta@hotmail.com

Thanks!

Great to see first MCG contributions here!
I can't test it right now, at least I'll need to download the trial first.
Hope to give my feedback soon!
