Is this something that could be fixed by me in C4D or is this something that needs to be fixed by the plugin?

Hello, I think this has to be fixed in the plug-in. It would be great to have your scene to check the issue.
Thank you very much.

Tell me if its not/stops working.
This happens with normal things in C4D like something cloned along a spline, sometimes needs a rail to tell it where it should be pointing.
Having something like a rail would be great in the plugin.

Hello, it seems that finally the problem is in the cinema side. In the video below we are displaying the normals that we are getting from cinema in order to orientate our spline emitter. You can see how the cinema normals are flipping.

It seems that this issue has to be addressed using another different scene setup.
Thank you for your report.
