Lock To World Tool Stops Feet Sliding

We're recommending this new animation script "Lock to World", available for download at Gumroad.  The Lock to World tool does the same job as the Anchor Transform Tool - which no longer works in newer versions of Maya since the upgrade to Python 3. 

Sliding feet can be a problem when animating a character walk or a walk cycle.  Fortunately for Maya animators, the Lock to World tool created by Jesse Ong Pho offers a simple solution. 

Rather than manually tweaking your animation to stop the feet sliding, this script lets you anchor a transform for any given time range in your animation.

What is Lock to World?
Lock to World is an easy to use tool that helps plant feet firmly on the ground when animating walks or runs. So, no more sliding feet.
