Re: Vertex MapLife Direction Settings
welcome to our comunity and thanks for choosing our plugins
Each polygon has got 4 vertices a,b,c,d
the loop direction means the direction that vertexmap follows during the expansion
In the attachment a picture that explain this behaviour
Remember that the expansion of course depends on your polygon topology
Feel free to write me if you need more information or help
Best regards

Re: Vertex MapLife Direction Settings
Also may be could not so easy to draw the topology in cinema 4d because you don't have any visual helper to understand the index of vertex.
If you need something more specific you can use the other tag vertex map animator tag.
split your path in many vertex map sequences and apply a vertex map animator tag.
Animating the interpolation property of the tag you can obtain probably what you are looking for, more vertex map you use more realistic your result will be
Note:
put the vertexmap in the correct order
In the attachment you will find an example
hope this help
Matteo
