ajws Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 hello, I've got a pretty complex effect i'm trying to realise involving objects running though/down and winding round curves. Houdini is my solution (as opposed to maya) but i'm a little new to many of the standard houdini processes. How can i set up a motion path similar to that in maya? I have my object, I have my curve and i'd like the curve to run down the object with a start frame and an end frame. This must be pretty basic so I appoligise in advance. thanks., A.

Its quite easy. On each objectnodes there is a option for both having a Path Object and a Look At. Hope it helps Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it helps Erik ah right thats cool thanks. Is there a way to do this in SOP level instad up at Object level? In eventually planning to have hundreds of curves with hundreds of objects running down them. A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
