Multiple splines following same path
Hi folks,
I want to create 5 winding splines that run adjacent to one another. For example, the splines should be like a winding road, or river. The outside bends should be wider than the inside. The lines should remain equidistant throughout. Using the ‘Create Outlines’ function in C4D does not create a satisfactory result, and brings the lines closer together on longer stretches. Here’s an image to illustrate – https://jf.cx/bends.jpg – C4D, when using the Create outlines function creates a result like the bottom set of lines, compressing the distance between the lines in one of the dimensions. The 2 sets of lines above are exactly like what I want – how can I achieve this directly in C4D?
Thankyou!

Where there’s a will there’s a way! A little hard to explain in words so I did a quick video tut:

Frikkin awesome, you rock! I’ve only been learning C4D for about a week, so no way I could’ve figured that out on my own.
Thankyou!
