Particles along a path with path deform

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

Im trying to use a particle system that uses my instanced geometry of a 3D arros to move along a path, but also deform along the shape of the path as it moves.

 

How can I do this?

 

TIA

 

Dean

Its been a couple daye since I've posted the original question. Does anyone have any ideas? Was I clear in my original posting? I'm getting a little desperate at this point.

 

Thanks,


Dean

Hello Pyro777.

 

Do you have a sample file that you can share for internal testing?

 

Thank you.

Hi, apologies if this is kinda too late.

 

Here's a sample (assuming I understood the effect that you want):

Galagast,

 

Thats awesome! I need to look at mesher and figure out what its doing. Do you know of a way to stop the arrows from stretching in length as they go around the corners, or is that just a byproduct of mesher?
