Rail clone problem

[[TOY]Snoop]

Hi there,

It's hard to see what your starting point is before you start cloning. Maybe the object isn't placed right on the spline?
Also u should place the object at the beginning of the spline, not at the end.
Let us know if it works,

The object is placed on the spline. It is a closed path. Which is the begining and the end??

can you send a screenshot of your settings in the railclone (window) and of the closed curve selected?

[dzogchen]

Fed up with the result after numerous trys, I went to bed. Woke up in the morning, try again, it works perfectly. Wacky!:shrug: Thanks to all who try to help me.

That's nice, problem solved :)

Exactly the same scene and nothing different? You didn't reposition the object on the spline?

[dzogchen]

I didn't shift the position. Same thing as before. Wacky isn't it?

[dzogchen]

Oh wait, I think I scaled the flower down first and it works fine. I undo the scaling to see how it look bigger again and it still works fine this time. :eek:

Yeah, that's very odd. Rail clone is wacky sometimes. A successful railing has a lot to do with the placement of the cloned object on the spline.
Happy that you've gotten it straightened out though.
