Weeellll, I'm trying to heartline a roll on my track. Just a flat heartline roll, taken at a decent speed. I banked it out as best as I could by hand, and then took that as it's own element, put it in a new track, painted it black, and heartlined it. Speed was in m/s, and all that blah. But every time I try to heartline it, it comes out as...

Sorry, for some reason the page that uploads the pics always goes to "page cannot be displayed" as soon as it's about to upload the pic...

Anyways, anybody have any advice on how to fix this?

I think you used relative roll, also think it says not to in the readme, though I'm not 100% sure. So yeah, don't use rel roll.

If that doesn't fix the problem you can just bank the top segment to a little over 180, like 182. Also make sure your making the roll at least 4 segements, never 2.

never 2.

Hm... don't know how you'd make any banking changes with only two nodes. [;)]
But yea, rel roll off, at least five segments I'd say, and be sure that you have progressive banking instead of constant.

i always make heartlines with 6-8 segments as the tutorial states, its not absolutly required, but rolls seem to come out cleaner that way imo.

I know, just make 8 segments
(9 nodes) and give the nodes the following banking (NOTE THAT FOR ALL NODES THE RELATIVE AND CONTINUOUS ROLL MUST BE CHECKED)

0????????? 15????????? 35????????? 55????????? 75????????? 75????????? 55????????? 35????????? 15?????????

Looks as though you have too few segments defining the original banking to me.

Ah, yeah. I didn't have rel roll, and I did bank it just past 180 degrees, but only 2 segments. Trying that now...

Yay, it worked! Thanks a lot everybody.
