DS.....
Is there a way to make the hand and arm to follow a body part??????

Foot/leg......head.......1 breast......  I have tried several things, but being a DS virgin, I have NO clue ;-))

Also, say I parented a piercing to a body part (breast) how do I get that thing to follow along in an animation???? 

Thanks in advance.

A parented prop should stay in the same relation to the part it was parented to as you pose. It won't take account of morphs, though, and it does have to be parented to the body part rather than just the figure.

I'm not sure what you mean by your first question - what are you wanting to achieve?

K, let me reform my data for ya.....been a long week already ;-)

1: I have a "Nipple piercing" on a V4 character, when I moph the body part, the piercing does not follow the nipple......but I see y in your response.

2.  I also wanted her hand to follow the morfed motion (breastUp) of lifting the breast, but I take it thats not possible either (due to the same morf issue)

  1. If I wanted to have say, her right hand grasping her left wrist, and I want to move the left arm....is there a way to make the right arm/hand follow or do I need to manually reposition it?  Does that make a little more sense?

Oh, and since I got ya.......am I correct in reading that there is no IK possibilities in DS?

Thanks ;-)

No, DS doesn't have IK - the nearest it gets is the Active Pose tool, but that isn't the same. It's a fairly frequently requested feature, I know from the forums.

And no, you can't parent one body part to another on the same figure. Sorry not to have better news.
