For a project, Im making a cable stayed bridge
I was plannning on making the cable using sohere sweep
When I tried rendering it, it gave me a parsing error
saying "out of memory. cannot aallocate -260 bytes"
i thought i used the sphere sweep too many times
but when i took out the other sphere sweeps i used
it gave me the same error

sphere_sweep{cubic_spline 2
<20,3,-.5>,.5, <.5,16,-.5>,.5 }

thats whats giving me the error
did i write it incorrectly?

thanks again :)

You need at least four control points for a cubic spline.
