Array and curve modifier

[Arsh_7004 (Arshnoor Singh)]

Okay I know this is a question that has been asked way too many times already but i swear I’vePillars_Arenas.blend (804.9 KB) checked everything that’s been mentioned till now and the array and the curve modifiers just don’t seem to work.

Ive tried everything…

1. Applying rotation and scale
2. Origin point of object and curve to be in the same location
3. Every possible permutation of the settings of curve and array modifier but this just doesn’t seem to work.

I’ve attached the blend file. Any help is tremendously appreciated
Regards

Hey Arshnoor,

I presume you’re trying to get the pillars spaced evenly around the circle but not distorted - the solution is in this post, the specifics are in the 2nd comment from @moonboots:

Please help me create the sole of shoe

Hi, I want to create same-sized studs of sole. For this, I created a curve from the outline of sole, and used it for the array of studs using array and curve modifier. However, the studs in array are different in dimensions. How do I make everything of same dimension? Here is the image [shoes.PNG]

Cheers,
Dj

You assumed correctly and your solution worked brilliantly as well. Thanks a lot. I’m doing it using the plane array and instancing.

It’s sad that it sometimes acts so weird while trying to do something so simple. Anyways, Thanks a lot.
