The name ``Whip'' refers to a whip antenna, not a whip like a
bullwhip.
This sophisticated motion plugin makes objects react like a stiff
spring, always wanting to be pointing in the same direction. The
plugin is actually a true physical simulation of the effect forces
have on a stiff rod.
The simulation can react to wind, gravity, and motion. The
restoration "springiness" and damping can be tuned.
Whip is simpler than other physics simulation packages for
LightWave, allowing Whip to work interactively in Layout itself. Its
many applications include antennas, flapping handles, diving boards,
wobbling objects, swinging ropes, car suspensions, pendulum-like
effects, (and, well, we could go on. It does a lot.)
This is just one of over 20 plugins in the James K. Polk
Plugin Collection!
