This is the same as Dr geep is saying. Check to ensure that I've read your parts correctly. Then save it as a phi file.

objFile :Runtime:Geometries:lust:fruit:cuff.obj

1 link_mid xyz
2 link_right xyz
3 main_cuff_right xyz
4 latch_right xyz
2 link_left xyz
3 main_cuff_left xyz
4 latch_left xyz

Check the gimbal order. I do not know

#which way your model is orientated.

The first rotation MUST be the twist

#along the axis of the body part.

Do it manually, click the text button and make everything a 1, line them all up on the left side, then click your tree button and drag them to where ever you want, you can also manually do it in the text area, insert the 1, 2 or 3 etc and place by copy and paste. Sharen

I'll also point out that the wonerful woman in the post above (Sharen of SAMS3D) has a wonderful tutorial on her website that explains a lot about using phibuild (taught me most of what I know, and was clearer than many of the others I'd seen) www.sams3d.com (psst -- great freebies, too, but don't spread it around, 'cause I want them mostly for myself)

grid, I only use PHI Builder to read the body parts in an obj file. I save whatever it gives me, then open up the file in notepad and edit it myself. It's a lot faster and easier. All you need to do is insert the correct number at the beginning of each line and re-arrange them to suit. mac
