Path Deform Modifier Problem

[Eznaex]

Hello, 

So the problem I have is that I need to keep my path deform modifier on, I still need to play around with it so I cant collapse. I want to edit some of the faces but whenever I choose a selection it removes it from the path, only the selected faces are on the right position.

mmm i'm not sure if you have the flip & the follow axis in the Path Deform blend but in the path deform then you can flip the control of the branch

Sorry, I dont know what you mean?

sorry i did not see the second photo it wasn't attached when i first looked at your thread i thought you just needed to flip the branch so it fits on the tree

Thanks anyway.

Hello @Eznaex,

I made a video here with some alternate ideas for this issue.  There are many ways to solve this but I just showed 2 in this video below.  Please let me know if they don't help.  The 2nd one seemed useful based on your splines I see in your image, so I threw it in there just for the heck of it.  If you have any questions, just let me know.  There are some hard edits where I cut a bit to shorten the video.  

Best Regards,

This was a huge help! Thank you very much! I will definitely also try that second technique. Thanks again!

Hello @Eznaex,

Glad to hear it!  The WSM path deform can be tricky at first, I've had the same problem you were describing here a few times.  🙂  Have fun!

Best Regards,
