auto-generated physics rig with controls linked by extra balljoints

Pyppet running on Blender 2.49.
Jointed physics test1.

The foot controll (Blender Empty constraint) is selected and gamepad set to drive its movements. The hip is then selected and attached to the foot by a ball-joint. This joint affects the physics rig with adjustable pull. Now moving the child pulls the parent.

Next the head is attached to the hip control with another ball-joint. Now moving the foot control pulls the entire spine.


=================================
Normal rig of an Armature constrainted to group of Empty objects. All of the Empties are parented under a root, or parented to another in the tree. This is created beforehand in Blender.

A physics-driven-rig is generated and attached to the standard rig.

For this demo: a single dual analog gamepad is used, controlling one object at a time.
