Description

Spline Rope is a 3ds Max script that creates a rope-like spline where one end follows a selected object. Animate the object first, then apply the script to make the spline vertices follow its movement. The tool uses a simple algorithm to simulate rope motion; it does not use physics, and only the first vertex is driven directly.

Requirements
