hi all,
need some help from any c4d heads on here if possible...is it possible to animate and swap spline objects along a timeline within the same object?
i want to create an animation which (for want of a better phrase) is like a piece of string that changes position and shape creating words and objects as it changes.
i know you can animate the spline itself - dragging the points around - but for more complex shapes and stuff is it possible to just replace and existing spline with another one?
are there any good points of reference online or tutorials that cover this? or even better, some source files? i have c4d r13 & 14 if that makes any difference...
anyone?

you want to swap but you want it to animate to the other spline right? not just change at once..
I'd start trying with the MoSpline, it has an option that you can set it up to be the shape of another spline, so maybe keyframing it?
not sure if it would do the trick

cheers feel - i'll give that a whirl ;-)

use a connect object to keyframe when you want to swap the spline.
play this animation:

hey, nice trick you got there, using connect to swap the use of a spline.
thanks for the file!
