hi all,

A 3d ribbion/spline path would really be useful :) were you draw a path in ventuz and attach objects to path also if you could use the paths to create ribbon effects animating texture :)
this would be very useful thanks

For our v4 plugins you need to copy a .dll on your usb stick.

This has been one of the top items on our wishlist for quite a while... We absolutely agree that it is a much needed thing.

The main issue is actually not the mechanics, but coming up with a usable UI for it. But rest assured, we are looking at it, and will come up with a solution at some point, though it may still be a while.
