Hi PaQ - that is a fantastic result. Great Job!!

I can't believe that's your first MoI model!

It certainly looks like you have settled in to NURBS modeling very well already.

@ PaQ :Pas mal du tout ;)
You must post it in the gallery!

Nice job!

See this thread # to make the coiled cable going to the headphone jack:

http://moi3d.com/forum/messages.php?webtag=MOI&msg=1519.11 another ;)
http://moi3d.com/forum/messages.php?webtag=MOI&msg=1519.12 the plug in!!!

Thanks for the comments.

I didn't had this kind of wire in mind, but it's a good idea.
Just wondering, it seems there is no way to do this helix array around a freeform curve ? Actually it looks like
you can only do it around a circle.

It would be terrific to have a variation of the plugin to do that, but I suppose it's not so easy to do :o) ... something like a Freeform Curve Helix Array.

@Pilou: I will post in the gallery when the model is completely done ;)

Got it ... but if someone has a faster way to do it ...

Hi PaQ,

> It would be terrific to have a variation of the plugin to do

Yeah, I would like to add that capability, but at the moment there isn't enough stuff exposed to scripts to make a plugin for 1.0 to do it.

If you would like to post or send to me your path curve, I should be able to cook up a helix around it pretty quickly for you using some other software.

Nice Pair!!!

Thanks a lot Michael, well I also have some other tool to do it in fact, but I really want to stay in MoI
for this model :)

Little update

Your model looks soooo awesome. Wish i could to that. I think i can recognize some elements of the halogen lamp tutorial?^^

How did you apply the "L" on the phones? With text body attachted to the mesh?

Yes, using the text tool (arial font).
Then I have done a fillet at once over the complete letter, a boolean union with the circle.
I had to fight a little bit to filleting the lettre border and the circle ... it was hard to find a 'working' value ...

0.01 ... worked but a little bit to big
0.009 failed
0.002 failed
0.005 failed
0.006 !!! works :)

Here's the jack :)

Your so awesome!

looks really nice!!!
If you have tooo much time left. You could make a tutorial! :)

Thanks Sayd, well it's probably a little bit early to starting to create tutorial, but why not when I master nurbs a little but more ... (There are so many stuff I don't really understand myself, so I don't want to share bad infos/construction method).

Little update ... still have to fix the wire thickness.



Enough for this night :)
