change velocity using CHOPs

[mic]

hello! i have a problem: i have the point which follows the path. i did it using exporting to geometry CHOP the curve, and the channel SOP. but the method is not principal.. and i want the point to follow the path with no changing velocity on the X axis for example.. how should i do this?

Sayden is pretty close with the Point SOP but instead of setting a value, you can connect the original point to the second input of the Point SOP, turn on Add Velocity & set X Velocity to $VX2 which means use the velocity value from the second input.

Cheers!

Great.

stevenong were right, I knew that something was missing in my post.

Sorry for the little mistake.
