Hi All,

How do you make an object follow a path?

I have read through the manual and it is so vague that I can not figure it out.

I have created an open ended spline.

I have created a cube and on  it's motion tab I have selected motion path.

But what now, how do I link the path to the cube?

The manual says to control click the cube and move it over the path, but because the motion is being controlled by a path, it will not move? What gives, is this a sequence order probelm?

 

Thanks,

I too would like to get some more info on this feature.  I once got the cube to go along the path but it would get turned around alot.

Check out the movie and see if it helps. Mark

Thanx Mark! I've tried Motion Paths a few times and was always clunking along. You showed very simply how to do it a better way. Thanx! :D

Thank you Mark, your video tutorial is great. For some reason the manual is slightly confusing and inadequate on this task, so I really appreciate your clarification.
