It makes also some text projections on primitive volumes! ;)

So yes, if you can afford the indie version, you can simply convert the grid into a Nurbs surface, and export it as .igs.
Here's a 512*512 grid, file size (igs) is about 15Mb, almost instant loading in MoI.

Curious : seems freeCad is very slow to import iges files from ZSurf! 2 minutes ! ( for 3.38 Megas ! )
Moi it's 1 second!
Idem when the same file is saved from Moi in IGES! it was the simple Pilou text surface above!
It's the same for you?

Hi Pilou,
Yes I have heard about it !!!. Looks really great, and Dax Pandhi is a really good artist.
Out of the box it's probably a way faster solution than Houdini (especially the texturing, colors looks gorgeous !) ... but I really prefer to trade speed for flexibility these days ;)

About ZSurf Texture --> Nurbs
If you have no need to specific modify the volume and only render the volumes
just use SimLabComposer Lite! it's accept iges format! ;)
Else from my little texture above
Of course Moi3D can easily make something like this! ;) (make an array vertical lines then use Boolean Merge)
@Michael :can you integrate inside "ExplodeMove" an 1D, 2D direction for the V4 ?
For the moment here we must use distribute ... with 1D Scale ;)

Of course if you want each piece as a volume make a general box first and not just a surface like above before the Boolean Merge!

Hi PaQ,
your DistanceToPoint set-up is pretty awesome!
My first try with an imported .iges file from MoI. :-)
(I show the backside, because it looks imho cool)
Hope I can post soon some ideas, with your
file and MoI.

So many possibilities with PaQ's set-up … (where is that PayPal donate button :-))
I tried with a high grid setting (1024x1024) and used a Mandelbrot outline, which
I had created long ago with MoI.

Hi PaQ,
o.k., but you share your knowledge with pretty cool examples,
which I, as a Houdini noob, would not come up with nor find
the required resources easily. ;-) So, thanks for that!

O.k., after a second try I had to render this Mandelbrot, to better see how it would look
like as an image. Looks a bit like chocolate … :-)

I am always amazed by the funny result of all that! (only ZSurf + SimLab Composer Lite) and test with Moi for accelerate the process of Download!
From: amur (STEFAN)
Hi Pilou,
indeed amazing what can be done. I am very glad that PaQ contributed so much valuable
infos and presets to this thread, which can open for us now new possibilities!
BTW. When looking at your image i think we can prepare with ZSurf (only using black
and white images, no greyscale) and MoI cool outlines for the set-up PaQ provided to
us. I.e. meaning once we have the Zsurf surface in MoI we simply trim it at a certain
position to get a nice edge, copy and paste it to have the outline … :-)
