Thanks for your knowledge! I want to do this with planes aligning to a bezier curve. Do you know how to align it so that the first vertex or edge of the first plane matches exactly with the first vertex of the bezier curve?

It certainly looks easy. However, I've spent two days, going over every part of your instructions, over and over. My settings look the same as yours, but I always end up with one mesh at the bottom of the Bezier curve. 😀 Cheers

Thanks (:

I'm going crazy with this topic. Like I've watched this video a hundred times (I'm following a book's instructions and they didn't work so I came here to find a good tutorial). It seems so, so easy but for some reason my object just changes all its measurements and location when I set the curve parameters. For more context, I've changed the cursor's location to the bottom point of my curve and the curve's origin to the 3D cursor. Could you help me, please?

Great tutorial . Is it possible to apply now some physics?

Hi jayanam, I am a beginner in 3d modeling and blender as well, I recently starting watching your videos, they are very helpful, I have request, could you please make such tutorial videos on topics which talks about the concepts like 3d modeling like topology, edge flow, overlapping and intersecting faces, etc it would be really helpful.

Hello. When we have a curve in edit mode in blender, there are red hendals, you know, vertex points. I couldn't find where we can see their location, that is, the coordinate on the screen, when in edit mode, or can you suggest a source that explains it?

so helpfull, to make rivets. one remark, if u modify the object, scale it after or you`re in confusion.

Thanks for the video. Helpful as always. Is there a way to alternate 2 or more different objects on a curve?

@JayAnAm

Hm, I can think of two ways: 1. Add both meshes you would like to alternate to one object and use this. 2. Make array and curve modifiers for both objects but the same curve and play around with the offset.

@@JayAnAm I like the second one. It has more freedom for changes. Could be an idea for an addon where you put your objects in a list and the addon place the objects alternating on a curve. But I am not a Blender/Python programmer. Or you can add this function to your addon. ;)

Great video! Tried to apply it to my simple task and I failed miserably. I wish to add a road to a map. So, I have the map as a reference, I think I add a curve on the map. I add a plane on which I add an image of the road...then...voodoo magic occurs. Would you know how to go about this simple task?

Hey Jay so this great and I got it to work, however the only way I could move it to another location without distorting it was to apply all of the modifiers. I don't think that's the best workflow. Any tips on repositioning the curve/array without further distortion or having to apply all of the modifiers, or is this just the way it is currently? Seems to rely heavily on object origins and/or cursor location to work (It was okay repositioning it from side to side but got distorted when I moved it up and down...) Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Hi and sorry for late reply, too many comments... Simple answer: Origin of curve and object has to be the same. I use to keep origin to the center and just move the points of the curve in edit mode.

So I'm trying to use the curve scale (altS). Problem is, the scale makes the meshs stretched instead of scaling the whole mesh. Does anyone knows how to deal with this

finally

THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I want to create an array of Streetlights or bridge supports. However when using this method the axis doesn't conform to the z axis, it just keeps getting deformed. Is there a way to create an array without any deformation, so that all instances align with one axis?

@Random4Logic

One way to do what you want is to: - create the curve you want the objects to follow - convert to mesh (or just directly create a mesh by i.e. copying the verts from another object) - make sure that your mesh has one vertex for every object you want - Take your Streetlight / bridge support pillar or what ever and make it a child of the created mesh - at the mesh setting go to object properties -> instancing and select -> vertices - disable "viewport" and "render" to hide the child object in your render (the viewport one is still visible but you can also just hide it with "h") - Done you now have pillars following i.e. an bridge arc

if someone had PROBLEMS a couple of the causes could be 1-Aplly all the transforms u can doit with control+A and "aplly all transforms" 2-Change the origins (u can doit by using R-click and set origin to 3d cursor, u should put the cursor where u want the origin point , u can do it by control +l L-click and "set cursor where u want ) (u can also see a tutorial about cursor and ) (i expect to have explained good) And lucky with ur projects !

can they collide with mesh?

And keep it at the center???? How do I get rid of the offset if I started out differently?

you could correct the title to Bezier curve array modifier tut, curves implies it explains the other curve types as well. I know it's in the description but in the video title would be clearer

Modifier works weird if you convert mesh object to curves and then try to apply array with curve modifier to it. It works much better with bezier or path curves, as shown by tutorial

I want a short object to move on the curve I drew. I will animate the object with the move tool. I will connect the curve to the joint, but when I change the direction of the joint, the object is deformed when I move the object.. How can I solve this problem?

sir how to add this bevel tool on the left side. i can not see this. i have only items, tools, view. please help me. i just start learning blender.

help! when i add the curve modifier it scale the obj out

I have a curve.1 around a curve.0 (array & curve) and I want my cubes to follow that curve.1 However, the object only follows the "original" curve.1, ignoring the array and curve modifiers of curve.1. What would be the solution? Converting curve.1 to mesh, (which appilies the modifiers), checking that all the vertices are indeed connected, and then converting back to curve, works. But I wish the curve.1 would still have those modifiers so I can influence its shape with the curve.0

its not working in my blender 2.9

how do i avoid a position-offset between curve and the following object? it fits the shape, but not the position. Found it: leave your object at 0,0,0 or set the curve origin to the wanted starting point!

Great tutorial. Everything worked as yours did except the Fit Curve, I had to select Fixed Count to get my object to move along the curve, otherwise it was just 2 cylinders. Not sure if it's a bug with the latest update or if it's something I wasn't doing right.

I figured out why the objects of the array are not fit to the length of the curve. The objects must be scaled to 1 (100%) in object mode. If you want toe scale the object you must scale it in the edit mode. Then the array fits to the length of the curve.

What is the definition of "wrong"? The questions is: What is the Up, Front and Right vector of your object and what is the deform axis of the curve modifier? If you can answer these questions you come to the conclusion that the modifier is not frustrating at all :-)
