How do we add a finger to the Biped THOR?  We tried using the instructions in the Array Video, with the elephant trunk, using the Thor right wrist.  But couldn't add the extra finger. All the fingers move to form a fist except Thor's ring finger.

Thanks for your help.

I recently gave my students the handout for Alice Pong to recreate the game. The Alice Pong game is currently written for Alice 2. Has anyone updated this handout with instructions for Alice 3?

Unfortunately, at this time it is not possible too form a fist including Thor?s ring finer? Our bipeds are based on the Sims skeletons, and the Sims did not have a getRingFinger function? At some point we will sub-class the bipeds to include the ring finger?

I am sorry,

I found it on the Duke University site, but it is written for Alice 2 not Alice 3 so the instructions are confusing.
