Yep BurrMan, that's what it's supposed to look like according to the website.

Hi Michael T.

So last night I did about this much:



Which allows me to loft it. I'm looking at different settings to get a good loft, without loosing detail, though not trying to create the irregularities of the point conversion.

That looks great so far BurrMan!

@Bur : have you any problem to import files from Moi in Powershape? Have you add some plugins inside?
Because
3dm fail
Iges partial fail
Sat Fail

Message error speak about an Exange pluging ?
This one is not included in the program?

Hi Frenchy,
The file imports OK to Powershape.



"Exchange" is the translator program Powershape-e uses. It is a seperate download. It will show up on the welcome menu in Powershape and is free to download and use. It is also their system for creating "Vouchers" that will be used if you want to pay for your model "Translation out" of Powershape...

Be sure to download and install both programs to use it properley (Latest versions).

Go to "View/toolbars/explorer" and clcik on the browser tab in the explorer window.

Note: You dont have to open and use exchange, it just needs to be installed. Then Powershape will use it when doing imports of different formats.

Thx for the infos !

@ BUR: Works fine !
It's funny to load something more of 100 megas for a translator ;) But That works fine now for 3dm format! ;)
It's cool for see if something is wrong on a volume / surface !

Hi Frenchy,
Yes, it has extensive analysis/repair tools. The program is heavy though.. I doubt it would run on a normal desktop.

@ Bur: Works on Latop (3 years) :)
(i test also 1234D and Co Create (all works in free version and against PowerShape you can "export" files different than native one ;)
Both have funny ergonomy!

Oh thats good news.. I guess I loaded it on an old P4 with 1 gig of ram and it didnt run too well. But that is REALLY old.

For some reason when I updated this model I had no trouble at all adding a fillet to the blade/hub joint. This is what I originally wanted but it would never work in Rhino or MoI. In MoI, I could at least transition from the hub to blade as previously posted. Here it is a much better blend between the two. I believe it was a 1mm G1 Fillet, if not, it was something close to that. I followed the same process as always. The input data is slightly different though, not sure if that had anything to do with it.

Michael G,

The updated import file script you provided is not the same one on the website. Is it ok if I provide this script on my website, for PROP_DESIGN users.

Thanks,

Anthony
