Activity Forums Maxon Cinema 4D spline between two objects

  • spline between two objects

    Posted by Simon Robson on December 10, 2009 at 1:18 pm

    I’d like to create a linear spline that would span from the centre of one object to another, each end of the spline staying fixed to the centre of each object as the objects animate. The effect would be a little like a piece of elastic string tied between two bricks as the bricks move around. I would also like to apply a sweep nurbs to this spline. Is all this possible?
    Thanks,
    Simon

    If you have mograph you can use the tracer object, set to mode>connect all objects. Then you would drag your objects into the tracer’s “trace link” box.

    You can use the tracer as you would any spline, e.g., in a sweep nurbs object.
