I have a sphere and added particles to it. With the sphere and then the curve selected. In the physics tab i selected the force type as curve guide. Why are the particles not following the path? It still dropping down. Whats going wrong? Any suggestion or help. Thanks

Thanks for replying. I did but the problem is its not moving in the curve path. Looks as it if its moving in z axis.

I moved this thread to Particles and Physics Simulations as this seems to be a support related topic.

Thanks. That was awesome. Can u tell me what setting you have used it. I have seen with curve its just force applied. And not the curve guide. Why and what else setting you have done.
