  noob question about sweep nurbs

  Posted by Guy Slator on June 20, 2019 at 12:50 pm

  Hi,
  I’m just wanting to use 2 splines and a sweep to create some geometry between two sections. How do I get the geometry to sit between the 2 splines, at the moment (as pictured) they are not attached.

  I see, you really are using only two splines in a Sweep (without using a Rail Spline) the functionality is

  Sweep
  – spline (spline that gets swept)
  – spline (along this spline)

  Because your splines are not at the origin point it looks offset from the ‘along this’ spline. What you want (I think) is not a Sweep but a Loft. If you put two splines in a Loft it will make geometry to join the two.
