This is for production. Particles give a nice procedural approach, where I can easily control spacing, speed and most important: number of words. If this fails I'll fallback to deformers, but that's not iteration friendly path :) W dniu 2015-11-26 o 21:54, Marcus Ottosson pisze: What I n

What I need to do is hundreds of words orbiting around common center axis (cylindryically). Is this for learning purposes, or production? You can technically achieve that with the regular bend deformer in Maya, and if that’s not enough, you could also create a joint chain per vertex (or even appro
