The Comet Muscle System, or "cMuscleSystem" is a plug-in suite
for Maya that provides a high-quality and affordable
alternative to standard Maya skin deformation as well as other
powerful features. Muscle deformation and skin deformation are
provided including both true sticky and sliding effects, skin
jiggle, and relax/wrinkle type effects.

The entire plug-in suite contains three deformers, five helper
nodes and seven new API MEL commands. Combined, these tools
create one of the most powerful high end muscle solutions
commercially available. In addition, the entire toolset is
flexible enough to be used for other setup and rigging purposes
such as creating spline based rigs, generic jiggle effects or
point caching. Many features can be used independently on any
object, even if you are not doing muscle deformation.

The entire muscle system can be applied above existing Maya
skinClusters for limited functionality. In addition, the plug
-in provides an automated way to easily convert or replace
existing Maya skinCluster deformed objects to the Comet Muscle
System. This gives you a quick and easy way to utilize existing
work, adding the full power of the cMuscleSystem toolset.
