Path Deform Pro

Developer: Marius Silaghi

3ds Max modifier that bends models along a path without self-intersections, pinching or stretching at curves.

What Path Deform Pro does

Path Deform Pro is a modifier for 3ds Max that improves on the standard Path Deform. Models travel along a path free of the self-intersections typical of the older modifier, and bends cause less pinching and stretching.

A volume preservation option keeps shapes solid, and extra behaviors include a slink effect with rolling and rigid deformation. Rotation and scaling along the path are controlled with a curve, and the up vector can be governed completely by another spline to look at. It suits artists animating cables, tubes, ribbons or any shapes that must travel along twisting paths.

Key features

  • Deforms along paths without self-intersections
  • Reduced pinching and stretching at bends
  • Volume preservation option
  • Slink effect, rolling and rigid deformation
  • Rotation and scale curves with spline-based up vector
