Hey there, thank you for the tutorial!
A question: it constantly does not work when i've tried it, and I dont know whats wrong :(
I've tried centering to pivot, reseting xform as well but the object still does not follow the line path, what may I have done wrong?

[@Stereopixol]

It's strange. Cause I don't think that this modifier has any bugs as such.

[@RH3D]

Thanks 👍

[@AlejandroGarcia-vw8dy]

I have a question. Once the model is finished, when I want to move the Deformed Path, the model is altered and distorted. I tried to convert it to Edit Poly but it doesn't work ...

[@Stereopixol]

Did you convert it to editable poly or apply an edit poly modifier? Which version you are using?

[@AlejandroGarcia-vw8dy]

I could already solve it. Thanks for the reply hehehe

Great tutorial man! i have one question though, it's about animation with these techniques.
You're currently using a static way of deformation, you set it up in a certain way and if you want it animated you use the animator to create a motion to a secondary pose. however i'm looking for a way to have my path deform real-time.
kind of like the inversed kinematics work. do you have any suggestion or advise for me to do so?

[@Stereopixol]

+Richard Algra You can animate the properties of the pathdeform, like offsetting and others. you have to use "autokey" for animating the values as they are spinners. Anyway thanks for your support.

[@Drorkenon]

Thanks man!

[@Retro_Mage]

So, what is the point of using the Object Space Modifier for Path Deform?

[@raihandesignandconstruction]

How to export this kind of shape? Tried all the ways but is not working

[@Stereopixol]

First convert to editable poly by right click on the object. Then export it as ".Obj" format. Can try dxf also.

[@vetor1982]

@@Stereopixol When i convert to editable poly the modifier Path deform WSM stays above the stacks

[@Stereopixol]

Hi , sorry about that. When using WSM you have to right click on the modifier and use "collapse to" .... OR ... You can just take a snapshot from tools menu.
