Geometry nodes - Align instances on curve points to secondary object normals

Hi there,

I’m trying to make an simplistic Ivy creator using geometry nodes and I am having no success.

I’ve found numerous cases of people having similar problems but not exactly mine.

I want a Geometry Nodes setup where the instances (leaves) are oriented relative to the object the curve is snapped to, facing away from it.

What I have now is the closest I got assuming the several examples I saw, but it is far from being what I need.

What I want

OBS: I’m on Blender 4.5.3

Any ideas? :slightly_frowning_face:

Thanks.

You can chain align nodes. Then use the factor to influence alignment.

e.g:

Good luck.

Thank you so much :face_holding_back_tears:!

I didn’t know you could go straight from curve to the instance on points, it was killing the orientations.
