Moving a 3D figure along a Bezier curve

[aero66]

Is there a way to keep a 3D Figure parallel to the global Z-axis when moving along a spiral curve created as a Bezier curve? My figure rotates as it moves along the curve.

In your model, you should create a Movement "Follow Path".

- Select the character
- Select the path
- Make sure that
- Reverse direction is checked (because your curve in going top to down)
- Object rotation is unchecked (to keep the guy upright)
