Hi All,

Here's a simple example of the use of "flip" node.

By flipping alternate facets surface normals, flowed geometry will flip according.

NB: construct2.js needs to be replaced at
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Moi\nodeeditor\nodes\extensions\construct2.js

& interface.js at
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Moi\nodeeditor\nodes\interface.js

Hi All,

Here's something I'm working on at the moment.
It is like a fisheye lens filter for spheroidal distorting of geometry.

Have a great weekend
James




UPDATED:
Also emulating Pinch filter for geometry.


UPDATED: FishEye.nod file attached.
Nodes in green can be adjusted, but be warned that highest magnification may cause long periods of lockup (spinning wheel) with focal point at the edges; best to stay towards the middle. With mid range magnification, there are no such issues. LENS TYPE switches from FishEye to pinch modes.

UPDATED: Also added switch for 2D or 3D bulging.

Or useful for car's tires design! ;)

Very cool
Can you post the nod file....?
Have a nice day,James...

Wonderful!!

Thanks Pilou, Al & Marco,

I have now posted FishEye.nod to my previous post:

UPDATED:with 2D/3D switch

Have a great weekend
James

James you're becoming a "true master" of this kind of "mathematical art"!

Congrats!

In this period of my life honestly this is not a CG topic that's so much interesting to me, but I want to tell you that your contribution to this particular area of Moi, the NodeEditor, is really amazing!
I think it's (almost) on the same level of what Max did with all his amazing scripts.

Thanks for your passion!

I can sign Marco's words!

Respect!

Mik

Hi Marco,

I have been buoyed by your kind words, although I don't
believe I am deserving of comparison with Max on any level.
Nevertheless, I'm greatly appreciative of your encouragement.

Thank you (& Mik)
James

You're welcome James! I think that you deserve due recognition :)

Ciao!
