Turn curve into a path? I have a curve wrapping around my model and a few orbs I wish to animate around it. How do I convert the curve into a path so I can easily animate it?



I figured out how to move it along but now the ball won't stay inside of the curve and it just flys around it and it's not sold inside the curve?
In blender, I know of no difference between curves and paths.
I believe that a few things could be happening.

1) Make sure that the orbs are children of the curve

2) See that Data > Path Animation is checked

3) You might also want the Frames value under Data > Path Animation to be equal to the length of your animation.

If all of these are done, and it is still not working, please upload your .blend file.
