ok long one here. When i start in front view and add torus it always appears end on (not upright) so i rotate it but when i get to the path and curve bit my chain looks like a bag of nuts it does not follow the path Any ideas out there? please.
I made a cube, went into edit mode, then to front view. Then I added a torus, make sure you are in orthographic view because the torus will be added parallel to the camera view. Then select one of the verts of the cube, hit CRT-L to select the whole thing and delete it. Tab back out of edit mode and the torus will be aligned correctly.
amazing! i am right now getting myself familiar with blender, i am truly impressed how easy it looks like to make a chain, now let's see how good i can reproduce it...
does anyone know how i could make this animated or with physics? cuz when i try to make them rigid bodies on game mode they always fly apart

Hi there, nice tutorial. but how is it possible that the specific links of the chain do not deform, too. when moving around with the curve ?

Make sure its exact same way...
Empty or empty notice the 1 st letter is in caps.. its has to be identical.. watch out for caps letters
