I'm making a chainsaw inside of Maya LT 2018.2. So far what I have done is create a curve that goes around the chainsaw blade for the chain. Then I used to assign to motion path to duplicate and create the chain for the blade. Then I create 101 joints total connected to the CV points of the curve. Now I am having issues with IK Handle Spline Tool. When I open the tool, I ctrl-click on the joint #1 then ctrl-click on joint #101 then finally ctrl-click on the curve. The IK handle is created successfully, however, when I go select the curve and rotate along the Z axes, the joints translate/rotate along with the curve instead of moving along the path like motion path. What did I do wrong?
