Model side paths - flat? About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011.

Model side paths - flat? // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by JPSofCA // Jun 1, 2007, 6:46am JPSofCA Total Posts: 300 I was trying to do something with paths on model side, and they were coming out as flattened surfaces...I turned off the bridge to see if that would help and I did get a path to come out in its 3D form but the when I created new scene to start anew, all my paths came out flat again. :( Have paths just become unpredictable now, or is there a surefire setting to get them to work everytime?

You could also use the Macro Sweep with Paths. This tool allows the user to apply a macro created by a sweep and/or tip procedure. Used in conjunction with the Path Library, the Macro tool also allows objects to be swept along paths created for spline polygons or animation paths. You might think of this tool as a path extrusion function. However, its macro capabilities are quite powerful. You can use it to quickly and easily set up a macro after a sweep, save it to a path library, and then apply it again to a new sweep target. Right-click on the Macro tool to open the Macro property panel.

You gotta have an object first! :rolleyes: Thanks again.

Yes...could it be coincidence! :D I hope they do too...these and boolean ops...and the snail shell....I mean, the lathe tool. Oh, and one more thing...a path from the library can not be further modified as far as segments, right?
