Illustrator paths not extruding
I’m trying to extrude a logo. I brought it into C4d and i can see it fine, but the extrude nurbs isn’t doing anything once the paths are inside it.
I made a spline, to see if it was something crazy and the spline extrudes, no problem. Is there some conversion I have to do before an illustrator path will work in an extrude object?

Using Cinema 4D 10.5 / Illustrator CS / OSX 10.4.11
Well, works fine here…
Please make sure that the spline is closed…I presume you have exported as “Illustrator Legacy (ai)” with the Options “Illustrator 8”…
Cheers

Thanks for looking at this. I found the issue. When i brought in the paths they were placed in a null object. Apparently you can’t place a group of paths into an extrude. Once I connected the paths into one path, all was well.
Thanks again,

you can place a bunch of splines in a null, you have to check off Hierarchical in the ExtrudeNurb object
