Not sure how well-known this plugin is, but I thought I'd spread the word since I use it often.

Here's the link. (http://www.itoosoft.com/english/menu.php?id=glue)

Itoo, the makers of the Forest Pack plugin, also have another useful (and FREE) plugin called "Glue". What glue does is simple: "This plugin aligns the pivot point of an objects selection over the surface of another object. For example, it's useful in placing trees over a mountain. Also conforms a spline to follow the surface."

It's great for creating a road that follows topography.

Ditto! It's one of those "must have" plug-ins in the DV arsenal...
