Full Version: Cross-section profiles

Hi,

I recently stumbled across this MoI GIF, showing how cross section profiles can be made between curves by simply dragging across the selected curves.

This looks very useful. Where can I download the command / script?



Thanks in advance.

Thanks, appreciated!

Wow, didn't know that script is so old. I've been working with MoI for years without knowing of its existence.

Usually you can just directly loft the longer guide curves instead of preparing these kinds of sections though.

For example something like this:


Select them in order and then run Construct > Loft and set the "Closed" checkbox option:

Good point, Michael, thanks! It's been a while since I worked with "MoIchanics", so I need a little memory refreshment. :)
