I want to animate a character using nunchucks... how would I set up the nunchucks? is there a dynamics set I need to use so that the nunchucks swing and move correctly? or is this going to be a piece-by-piece keyframe nightmare?

A chain melscript might work... but nunchucks need to be able to swing from both handles... so a join chain would have to work both ways.
