Hello Everybody.

I’m new to Maya and I need little help.

I’m trying to model a cable. I do it with cylinder and EP Curve. I want to set an object motion and Object Flow Path.

I fallow also tutorial but still getting weird result.

My cylinder doesnt fallow the curve along. See attached img.

I set my motion object to normal...also the axis are set so the cylinder moves along curve on time slider good. But when I set Flow Path (latice) the object fallows the curve just with other end.

I dont know what to set next..Please help.

Thank you!.

how many subdivisions (height) do you have on the cylinder?

a colleague has just shown me a far simpler way do doing this.

simply select the face you want to extrude out, shift-select the curve and use edit mesh -> extrude (polygons menu)!

you can then increase the divisions on the polyExtrudeFace node on the object :)
