Flow Path Object Influence

[Papriqua]

I am animating an object along a motion path, using Flow Path Object Influence to make the Object bend with the shape.

However, the Object has some Hard Surface parts that should not be bending with the rest of the Object (think USB cable where the cable bends but the "USB head" does not deform.)

Is there a way to change which parts are being influenced by the path?

Thank you!!

HI

Try to Increase the subdivisions of the influence object, then test.

Hi Kanivey,

I tried to increase the subdivisions but it didn't really do anything for my problem, sadly. 

I'm trying to have a specific part of the object not deform with the path but stay straight
