Hello, Can anyone give me some suggestion for the following problem: I have an existing animation with a camera following a curved path. Is it possible to create an object before the camera that follows the same path ? (can i assign a existing camera path to a object) Thanks for any suggestion, Emmanuel

You can do that with the Camera/Tracks/Copy command. – Jack

Try this: Creat a dummy object, copy TRACKS (absolute) from the camera to the dummy, then link the object (you want in front of the camera) to the dummy. John Tissavary (La Luna cie)

Copy tracks to the other object will do it, or make the object a child of the camera, or do what many modellors do: make the camera & its target children of a dummy object that follows the path and make your new object a child of the dummy as well. Lot's of options. – Phil
