redirecting a spline

Hi Everyone.

 

I'm building a roller coaster and I have a problem.

I'm using path deform to create the track, no problems there. The problem happens when I try to bank the track in the opposite direction in one portion of it.  I try to rotate the vertex in the path itself to compensate but it doesn't really do the job and is very arbitrary... anyone have any suggestions? 

Mike

If you use the compound object option Loft instead of path deform you can get great control of the twist and teeter with the deformation controls.

Hi @Anonymous ;

 

Can you try to apply Normalize Spline modifier before Path Deform?

 

Kind regards;
