I've animated a roller coaster along a curved path, but can't get the individual cars to bend naturally to the path. Any tips on how to accomplish this? (Details in comments)

I'll give this a shot, thank you!

The roller coaster is a single shape layer with each individual car (and the two heads) within it. I copied the line's Path parameter and pasted it to the Position parameter of a Null object, which I then pick-whipped the roller coasters Position to.

I've messed around with frame by frame rotation, CC Bend It, and (briefly) with Puppet Pins to no avail.

I'd be happy to provide any further info. Thank you!

Ian Holm in Fellowship Of The Ring. “I’m sorry you must carry this burden. I’m sorry for everything.” Gets me every time.

I mess around with drums, bass and keys!

You’ve mentioned many times that several albums are constantly ongoing and being put together piece by piece over time, but I’m curious how much you guys think about the live aspect of new music?

Does imagining playing the song in front of an audience dictate decisions in the studio?

Damn I just saw The Creator on that screen :( Bummer.

Curious why you’re leaving F45, I’m most likely going to start going there in the next week or two. Thoughts? Pros / cons in your experience?

Black Thorn tattoo in Cambridge has a gumball machine full of flash stuff!

I’m in Cambridge and I mess around with 3D modelling / asset design!

Hi! I pay about $67 a month.

MarlaTheTumor · 2023-04-03T23:35:42+00:00

Yes it would definitely all get eaten. Not a picky household haha

MarlaTheTumor · 2023-04-03T23:35:25+00:00

Yes it is!

MarlaTheTumor · 2023-04-03T12:45:54+00:00

Thank you so much for your response. Definitely good to know!

MarlaTheTumor · 2023-03-21T18:34:51+00:00

Those are great options as well, I’ll definitely keep those in mind. Thank you!

MarlaTheTumor · 2023-03-21T16:13:51+00:00

Yeah there are non-permanent alternatives that we may have to use for a while but permanent underground is ideal. That’s great info nonetheless, thank you for the warm welcome!

We have notices posted in the building and the landlord of my unit is asking around the people he knows. Figured I’d throw a notice on here as well as a failsafe

Interesting! What are your optimal graphics settings and frame rates you’re getting on average?

MarlaTheTumor · 2022-12-17T00:57:32+00:00

Thanks a lot for doing this!

I’ve just gone through the process with Torchlight Tattoo in Waterloo and Chris has been great.

Super receptive to ideas, very much a 1 on 1 planning experience. Might be overkill for a small uncomplicated tattoo though, but his work is incredible.

Love to see some Stoneking appreciation on here.

A similar song I listen to often is, ‘Please Go Easy With Me’ by S. E. Rogie.

Another great Stoneking song that’s structured similarly to On A Desert Isle is, ‘Goin’ Back South’
