The only way to integrate skinning and IK in 3DSr4 is to build an underlying IK
skeleton, underneath a set of cross-sections that are skinned by the Skin IPAS
process. This is very different from the SI enveloping method that you
referenced.
There's a section in the new "3D Studio Special Effects" book from New Riders
about how to develop the skin and underlying skeleton. The IK docs cover how to
apply IK to the skeleton.
