Hi Indy, no problem!

You'd still need to purchase an upgrade license.

The base price of v2 is going up to $295 USD, and the upgrade license for v1 to v2 will be just the difference in price between v1 and v2 ($100).

So there isn't any penalty for buying now at least (as opposed to waiting until v2 is out) - the total cost of v1 + upgrade ($195 + $100) will be the same as for a full v2 license ($295).

Hi Michael,

thanks for the clarification.

Are there any hints on how to easily find the missing faces in general?

And before I forget... any indications about when V2 will be out? ;-)

All the best,

Indy

Hi Indy,

> Are there any hints on how to easily find the missing faces in general?

I just found yours by just doing a quick inspection of your shape...

But it is possible to set up a keyboard shortcut to highlight naked (unattached) edges, which can help to show you where the disconnected holes and empty spaces are in a model.

To do that, go to Options / Shortcut keys and add in a new entry, and for the command, paste in the following (it is all one long line):

script:var gd = moi.geometryDatabase; gd.deselectAll(); var breps = gd.getObjects().getBreps(); for ( var i = 0; i < breps.length; ++i ) breps.item(i).getNakedEdges().setProperty( 'selected', true );

Then when you hit that key, the edges that are not attached to anything should highlight.> And before I forget... any indications about when V2 will be out? ;-)

No firm date set yet, but hopefully not a whole lot longer.

Michael,

Does the trial version now have naked edge detection? Maybe a simple oversight in your reply?

- Steve

Hi Steve, ooops that is correct, that previous script only works in MoI v2 (since the Sep-21-2008 beta release) and not in v1 which is what the current trial is based on.

It will be nice when I wrap up v2 and be able to put out a new trial.

Hi,

no problem.

Just placed the order for MoI. So I should be able to test it out soon ;-).

All the best,

Indy

Hi Indy, thanks very much for your order!

- Michael

Weee another one!
Welcome Indy, enjoy this flight to the Nurbs wonderland.

@Michael
Heh thanks for the little script, just a little bit too late haha
(ive done all by hand today on my wip, moving my mouse everywhere to check for nasty lines)

Thanks a lot for the warm welcome!

Currently playing around with some basic stuff and hopefully can post some more exciting soon.

All the best,

Indy
