    one advantage of Daz Studio is that it's easy and fast to build am interesting scene, with figures and props
    compared to Blender which often leads users to build empty scenes with a few primitives
    just having a character in a scene makes it more interesting
    or having expensive things instead of cubes

    today's test scene ( the pendulum will be animated "manually" for now )

    fig. 2 more interesting with a big chain

    For your Aiko figure, is she just simply parented to the ball??

    very close, the ball and Aiko are parented to the cylinder, which swings according to a sinewave

    down the road Aiko will be parented to the ball which will be physically constrained to a series of physically constrained chain links

    test swing for the "hinge constraints" of the physics simulation

    now that the swing animation tutorial is done ( twas a special request ) we resume work on the physics simulator constraints ... hinges

    the upper rack will be a static body

    the chair with Amy will be a dynamic body

    the 4 red cylinders ( invisible at render time ) will be Hinge-constraints

    the 4 suspension rods will be dynamic

    Figure 1 i got lured away by modeling ! ... i'll finish this guitar later ... and post it on my site

    Figure 2 ... but back to physics, i'll add the handling of the basic collision shapes

    box, sphere cone cylinder pill

    later on, the composite shape

    and i'll implement the constraints : point-to-point, hinge, slider, twist-cone, 6DOF

    Might I inquire as to the settings for getting the gloss/reflection so well done?

    note that it's a Blender-Cycles render

    so in daz studio applied a random texture image to the 'reflective' channel of the surface

    when exported by mcjTeleBlender

    in Blender the material was reflective ( Glossy - Sharp )

    i turned down the strength of the glossiness so we could see the color of the guitar body

    ---

    for Daz Studio's renderer you could use a chrome shader and turn down the reflectivity strength

    Blender! okay ... well it certainly does a nice job.

    Have the shaders ... and a whole bunch from here too ... have tons of fun with them.

    so far the guitar is 37K polys ill try to bring it dowb to 32k

    it's a bit high but the guitar survives close-up examination

    ( image not by me )

    the dynamic hair in the program Miku Miku Dance is possibly based on bullet physics

    so down the road .... maybe we'll get this in Daz Studio!

    hope you get it to work - Daz will not I'm thinking .

    That would be great! And for flowing horse manes too?!

    maybe fire manes ! >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH1RL0RruAU

    well within Daz Studio for starters it would probably be d-form rigged hair

    or if the hair/mane prop/figure has animation morphs/joints built in then maybe it could be animated indirectly by the physics objects

    the first not totally failed results of including a hinge constraint in the scene

    well i mean for example the pill-shape objects reacts like a pill shaped object

    the green ball moves so it's not static

    the green ball is constrained by a hinge, the hinge is where the magenta cylinder is located

    the kinetic object seems ineffective

    the green ball doesnt roll away, so , part of the hinge works

    the yellow cone thinks it's 2 times shorter than it really is ... which is why it acts like one

    First thought was this would be neat for those "fly through doorway quick before it closes again" scenes.

    No burnie horsie!!!

    apparently the mass of the kinematic ( animated ) box was important

    when the mass was at its default value of 1 it was not impacting the objects much

    also i made the objects in the scene 10x larger, so that they are much larger than the "collision margin" that Bullet engine uses

    and i fixed the cone issues

    improved the neck and trimmings
    who knows maybe i'll complete it tomorrow !

    and lets remember that one of the Graals of guitar props is dynamic guitar straps ... which is somewhat related to physics engines
