Is there any way that JCM or ERC can be used on a conforming figure to make a part of it bend the same way as the figure that it is conformed to?

joint parameters are tricky.

You can add new joint paremeters with a simple pose file, something I fail to understand why Poser has YET to add to it;s library, but anyway.....

I have never tested this but thought of it a few times out curiosity. Without test, my guess is the answer would be no because joint paremeters lack certain references that allow them to be animated.

Specifically certain joint data lack the proper paragraph structure to adhere ERC (jcm is erc joint controlled morphs). I suppose joint controlled joints would be JCJ. :)

This problem is likely why we have seen the emerging use of magnets to assist in bending, which also is flawed because magnets don't deform secondard parts the same as the parent during bending rotations.

I thought it was unlikely, but had to ask anyway.

Thank you.
