Hi Psygorn,

re:
> I have a question; is it possible to control the pointiness of a generated mesh using the sweep command?

Well if you use the "Pointy ends" option in Sweep it will transition from a profile curve to a point at the tip. You can get some control over how long the pointy part will be by putting in additional profile curves.

If you want to control the "side profile" of the point you might be better off generating a straight pointy object using Revolve and then apply it to the curved path using Transform > Deform > Flow rather than using the Sweep command.

If you need more help I may need some kind of sketch or example of what you're trying to do.
