But I don't know, if average is the right word for that? Max has to decide about it!

p.s.: for 2 values it degenerates to a linear interpolation:-)

Hi Max and Friends .
I am trying to redo the exercise (twist), (simple in Grasshopper ) but can not find the same Node
Polygon pts-
Node that I can use at the time, has three called input
center, radius, sides,
and not two , as the one used in the video......
Where am I doing wrong ????
Thanks for your help

Hello Al,

I think that Max hasn't released the node, typically he post also the exampe.nod file for new features -so we have to wait:-)

Have a nice day

Thanks Karsten ,
I thought so, but I was not sure

Hi guys
I was busy few days, so I didn't wrote anything since tuesday.
Here is small announce for the new version:
PolygonPts node (done)
TransformPts node (done: twist, rotate; to do: explode)
Interpolation node (to do)
ConvertPts node improvements
pushFrame rad/deg bug fixed (again) :)) I accidentally wrote Math.pi instead of Math.PI in the last version.

I don't know when I will release the new version. Maybe this Sunday.

Good to know! Thanks a lot!

Sweet sounds to my ears.......
do not forget (tutor) exercises for beginners like me-
Great

I am testing it and it's great! Thanks.
Question for newbies: how do I extrude some shapes randomly? I can generate a random number but of course the number is used for every extrusion.
M.

maybe you have to set Long rather than Short
in the field math

PathPoints:-) only integration of the startframe evaluation is missing at the moment!

Have a nice day

Hello James,

I had make some tests with the average-mode and found two bugs. If you want, you should correct this two lines:
r.push((e[1]-e[0])); //error corrected was r.push(2*(e[1]-e[0])); !!!
r.push((e[i]-e[i-1])-((r[i-1]*h[i-1])/u[i-1])); // error corrected was r.push((e[i]-e[i-1])-(r[i-1]*h[i-1]/u[i-1]));!!!
in basicFunctions.js -splineMap-function.

Have a nice day
Karsten

Thanks Karsten,

It fixed an anomaly in interpolation with > 3 values in radii input series
as well as crashing bug if U,V or W input centre value < the number
of values values in radii input series.

I can't wait until Max has finalised the foundations of node editor,
to see what you build upon it.

Keep up the great work
James

Hello James,
thanks for the reply. If you want to test another node, please test this one. But first you have to correct pushFrame in litegraph.js as described here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=7713.436
PathArray in Points2.js generates an aligned pointarray along a curve. ShowFrame shows now all Frames in a pointarray - I think useful for test.

Have a nice day
Karsten

The new version is not ready yet. But today I wrote interpolation node for using with numarrays. At the moment it supports the following interpolation methods:
Linear, Cosine, Cubic, CatmullRom, Hermite, FritschCarlson

What a supense! ;)

Hello Max,
good news and very interesting - I've never heard before about FritschCarlson. (Something I have to Google now:-)
And, Is this a new node or are there new modes like short and long?

Have a nice evening
Karsten

wastzzz
it's not like I write, I tried to change the sequence ,
and set long but no result....
can someone explain how to use
this random function ....

James , Karsten .....
much good results,with our script, but
you can enter the script into original nodeditor folder for them
try , without damaging the original files ???
thank you
al

_Sorry for my bad english

With a bit of logic , I think I found the solution, but can not understand how the input values are interpolated-
I enclose two pictures;
-Input data ( before picture)
- transformed data (after picture)
Can you me better understand the operation?
