Maya 2025 ML Deformer tutorial...? Maybe? Idk.

Описание: Since I couldn't find any tutorial about ML Deformers in Maya 2025, I decided to make my own. I don't really know what I'm doing, so feel free to roast me in the comments. This channels is not monetized, so if you want to share the video or not, doesn't really matter.
