hey guys,

quick question that will probably be easy to solve, anyways…


Ok so say ive created a curve that zig-zags going straight up, and then i create another curve in the same place that is straight, how would i be able to deform the striaght curve and have the other one flow along it.

ie I move the verts of the straight one to form a semi-circle, and the zig-zags on the other curve flow along?


Cheers guys, ive been digging in sops and cant find anything, im thinking maybe a attribTransfer but imnot so hot on expressions, id be really grateful if you help me out.


cheers

you could try using the creep SOP refer to the help theres a good example. Is there any reason as to why you must have another curve fit to this zig zag curve.

R

theres always a reason .

but i need the Zig-zag to conform to the other curve, almost like a control curve. Ive tried the creep sop, doesnt work.

But thanks for trying.

Im sure there is a solution.

Creep only works with a surface, but it can work for you.
Duplicate your zig-zag curve and skin them, make the distance really small, then creep your straight curve on that.

i think that might do it, shoulda thought of that.


thanks

Wire Capture + Wire Deform?

Dragos

wire might be a good solution.
but would that be a bit of a heavy solution?
