path deformer ?? R13

[Alan Lacey]

I haven’t used c4d much recently but now have a job that previously I’d have used path deformer for. I understand that with R13 this can now be done with R13’s spline wrap deformer but don’t understand how it works.

It’s a medical piece and what I’m trying to achieve is a stitch being inserted and tied. So I’m after a length of thread (sweep nurbs) following and moving along a spline path.

If someone could give me some pointers I’d be really grateful.

Thanks

Okay, found it in the manual now thanks. It’s all down to how you prepare the warping object and its orientation.
