digitalaayush Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I was wondering if anybody here has followed Peter Quint's CHOPs Animation tutorial on VIMEO. http://vimeo.com/7488503 I was using this tutorial for the formation of a bridge asset over a curve. I am able to do it on a straight line pretty easily as showed by him in the tutorial. But when I try to do it on a curve, I am not getting the desired result as the orientation of the planks is not along the normal. Can anyone please help me in overcoming it. I am attaching the file below. Any kind of help will be highly appreciated.

rafaelfs Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi, Check the attached file. The polyframe SOP creates normals along the curve and the xform SOP jut changes the orientation of the copied plank by rotating 90 degrees in Y.

digitalaayush Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hey thanks mate, that was useful. I was trying to achieve the same result with the same SOP from quite some time, but was not able to figure it out somehow. I should have posted it here earlier. Any way thanks a lot mate. U made my day..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
