When I combine the link and diamonds the chain is super spaced out. Can someone help?

[kode]

the chain is invisible in the render how do i fix that?

[hanzelhzl]

When joining the chain with the bezier curve I have the problem that the links do not cover the entire curve, only a part, however when you do the same the links cover the entire curve, how do I solve it, I am fighting all day with that, great video by the way.

I appreciate this tutorial. I just have one question. After fixing the distortions with the plane like you showed, when I export the chain, I get the planes and not the links. Any work around or fix? It works perfectly until I fix the distortions

[skrill]

[cashvendetta]

Love the videos can you do a slow tutorial on how to bake the chain

[bmoregta]

Hey anyway to show a video on how to export it into GTAV Thanks

[OMGRENZEL]

Love your videoss can u show us some high quality texture baking ?

[bmoregta]

Hey bro I ended up putting to many vertices how do I remove them so that I can move my chain as a whole piece instead of a million pieces because I put to many vertices thanks your video helped me out great job, I just wished you recorded the rendering process but again good job.

[feeenbaby]

[Random_facts]
