When I attach my object to a spline object moves back and forth..EG.
So I figured out how to attach my object to aspline without shifting orientation… Now my object is animating with a back-and-forth motion. Kind of bouncy. All I am doing is animating it’s position in from 100% to 0%???
Here is what it looks like so far. 8mg

is the camera following the same spline or another one?

You probably have to adjust the keyframe interpolation for your align tag.

The camera is attached to the same Spline.
How do i adjust Keyframe interpolation? So far I simply have the position set at 100% frame 1 and 0% frame 90… Is this what your talking about?

try changing the Intermediate Point of the spline to Uniform (you may have to increase the number as well)

WOW!!… I don’t know what that means but it worked great. Thanks alot 🙂
Any chance for some quick detail?

I don’t know the full details but all splines use intermediate points (used internally by C4D) at places in-between the points we see in the editor. You were probably using the default Adaptive intermediate points, that places points where they are needed to maintain a shape based on the angle the spline has bent since the last point. Uniform places the points …uniformly… 🙂 and Natural seems to be like a combination of the two. According to the manual Adaptive is good for tossing in a nurbs since it will generally generate fewer polys. Uniform is good for animation along the spline since the uniform points mean motion along the spline will be uniform.
