Hey guys,

I am having a problem with animating this particle flow. I need the arrows to move along the path not the PF source. I get the feeling I should delete the key frames and add a wind force modifier. to push it along. I have been messing around with the nodes in the particle view but no dice. I also am having trouble getting the arrows to rotate along the spling instead of being the static “horizontal” position. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had a similar problem, since the Force Operator doesn’t support the Path Follow Space Warp for some reason, see this thread:-

There is a workaround in the Help, but it didn’t work for me, maybe ‘cos my spline was animated.
