Constarin Position not catching

Post by Frank1000 » 06 Feb 2014, 01:26

Hi,
i'm doing a constrain position with a camera to a cube that is curve-deformed (actually not deformed but used for translation). But the cam is not catching the cube. Any idea what i should check ?

Any other constraints on the camera?

k just gotit. by curve deformed objects can't be directly used to pos constraint a cam to them. cube must be all points clustered, then cam constrain object to cluster of the cube. that way it works :-)

Ah right. Sorry I thought you used a Path constraint not a deformer...
