    hi everyone,

    I fairly new to c4d, so maybe this question is kinda dumb.
    I want to achieve the following: an animated swirling 3d road on the surface of a sphere. Kind of a mini-planet with only one road. I’ve got the animated part of the road covered using sweep nurbs. But I can’t seem to match the road around the sphere.
    Any tips or advice?!
    Thanx!

    Use the Wrap deformer, but nor on the ExtrudeNURBS. Apply it to the original Spline. Set the Spline type to “subdivided” to get proper results.
