Hi Karsten,

I wish you had not included that link.
Now when I am writing you, this is the image I'll conjure.

Yes Master...... Yes Master



James

Hi Karsten
I fully share the thought of James
>>Please also know that some guys here are eternally grateful for those champions of NE, of whom you are the greatest (second only to max himself<<
You are a" carrier column " of Elephnat System
no one can question it.
But, about your feeling .......>>Sometimes I have the Feeling that some guys here are not amused that someone is writing nodes here -anyway.<<
I also notice it ...
Let's make force my Friends

Hi AL.

I'm on the side of "script developers" too!

Long life to anyone who wants to experiment, and is never going to be satisfied with "the same old things" :)

Only, I would really appreciate a greater commitment in keeping things well organized (scripts, version, and etc...)

But, apparently there's no one that agrees with me about this point.

No problem at all for me.

I will continue to play and learn from the great P. Elephant, thanks to Max, you, James, Karsteen and all other Elephant's guys :)

Ciao!

Hi Karsteen.

Just in order to definitively close this argument (for me)....

@You : "...Sometimes I have the Feeling that some guys here are not amused that someone is writing nodes here..."

I sincerely hope that you are not referring to me, because, even if I always said that my mathematics knowledge is very weak,
I wrote some utility nodes too, nothing really special although :), and some commands/script and new others will come :).

I think too that your contribution to P. Elephant is excellent.

So I really love "developing" as much as "modelling" side!

I hope that I made myself clear this time.

Have a nice day.

Ciao!

Hello Marco,

everthing is fine:-)



these are the things that drive me - but I am also driven by organisation every day in my Job.

So a nice day to all
Karsten

Everthing is fine for me too, Karsten :)

Thanks a lot for sharing this "new experiment" !

We'll see new great things.....

Nice day!

Karsten,

"Sometimes I have the Feeling that some guys here are not amused that someone is writing nodes here -anyway."

Stunned that you've been given that impression. I, like the other posters, am very grateful for all that you have contributed.

As a fairly recent participant in Project Elephant I did find it very challenging to get going and would have appreciated a tidier archive and detailed, easy to find, documentation.
However I realise that this is very much a work in progress and we have the opportunity to participate in the building phase, and I'd sooner the developers create new nodes, and improvements and extension of Node Editor (Macros are wonderful!) that spend their time on administration.

When the development phase is 'over' then, for the value of Project Elephant to be accessible to a greater range of MoI users, easily accessible archives and documentation will be essential.

Mike.

I have a sort of repository (Max / rest of the world :)

But in French !)

But you have some images! and links to the original!

Sorry i want to test all new nodes of these last weeks for archive them but no time for the moment!

Hi Friends

This is my third macro
Blend linear curve ...

input:
-curve-1
-curve-2
-factor for Blend C1
-factor for Bend C2
-start point on first curve
-start point on second curve
-bulge blend first curve
-bulge blend secon curve
-choise C1 or C2

output:
-blend Curve
-joint Curve

I think I'm a flexible enough tool to help
in classic planar drawing
Later they tried to create Blend Curve 3d macro
surely it is much more complicated to do so
to this link the files:

Good in-depth
Have a nice Weekend to all

Hi Friends,

this is the fourth Macro ;
Cubic Bezier from 4 points .
The interesting thing, I think, is that we can use it
not just isolated points, but also points that lie on curves
linear .....
in this case the output curve represents a particular fillet
between these two curves ...

input

point 1
point 2
point 3
point 4
Start Domain
End Domain
n°point for curve

output

Cubic Bezier
Points Control Polygon
Control Polygon

The download link does not work.
Even exclusion from Malwarebytes does not help.

Hello Brian,

here is Als the node file.

Have a nice day
Karsten

Hi Brain
if you refer to my last file
I checked in the site, and they made 2 Downloads,
maybe it's a problem with your Server.....
best
alberto

Thanks Karsten for putting the file in the forum ...
I still can not use Mediafire
(they are still the effects of the Earthquake in my Territory)
thanks again and have a nice evening
alberto

Thank you Karsten

A new experience:
About a half hour after trying the download, doing some Math google searches, my speaker started a noxious pulse beeping, one webpage screen went red, with some warning to call an alleged "Microsoft" telephone number, some blocked malware was after bank accounts and credit cards, etc.
(No fault of MoI, nor of MediaFire as far as I know.)
Rebooted, and all seems well.

- Brian

Hello Brian,

I saw this pop up also. Go to task manager and kill the process. I got always pop ups at mediafire, but never such crap like in the last days.

p.s.: Under linux you will get 15€ for a bet portal;-)

Hi All,

UPDATE: Revised version can be found here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=7777.649

I have attempted to recreate a form as per youtube vid:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiKG-vkTzfE
Not emulating the procedure, just the end result.



WARNING: Due to the sheer complexity of the form (number of lines/surfaces),
running the .nod file will take a long time to render to screen
(approx. 40 secs on my laptop), so be patient.
Of course, for denser meshes, it will be even longer.


Have a great weekend
James

Hi James!

Thanks a lot for this sharing!

What a complex and beautiful node ! A lot of stuff useful for practicing.

On my PC i7-7700K it takes exactly 30 secs to generate the output.

Ciao!
