Knowing this a while back could have saved me so much time. I manually tried to align ropes (rope bridge) and it was a 3 Dimensional chaos. Great tutorial. Ill be using this from now on with dangly stuff

It's a little secret, because it's surfaceDeform that works

[marcelievsky]

Amazing! I'm wondering how I could do that wih bones 🤔🤔

[axisd]

Hmm. Mesh Deform doesn't seem to work. But this same workflow works with Surface Deform. Not sure what the difference is between the two.
