I'm not sure what the IDE for Grasshopper is but since Rhino is in process of being 'ported' to OS X is there any chance of Grasshopper becoming available on OS X? Reading between the lines maybe…Continue

"You can receive MIDI messages through OSC, but AFAIK its not native and you have to go through several steps. Receiving the messages natively is what I'm working on so you can just plugin your MIDI controller and go. gHowl can work on a Mac,…"

"In theory, its certainly possible, however its likely going to have to "bake" the light in question. The other thing is that it will likely only work on native Rhino lights, so if your using another render engine it may not be possible to…"

Lighting controls?

I'm wondering if Grasshopper can talk to the lighting in a scene. I would like to make a rough model of a hall interior and the set various lights such as up lights pointing at the ceiling and ceiling mounted lights bouncing onto the walls. Then I'd like to use some control method to look at the lighting and show crossfades and so on. 8 channels of light, 40 or more actual lamp positions. I even have a Berhinger 2000 (Midi controller) with faders and dials if anybody has done…See More

I'm not sure what the IDE for Grasshopper is but since Rhino is in process of being 'ported' to OS X is there any chance of Grasshopper becoming available on OS X? Reading between the lines maybe it's developed in C# ?Can't help mentioning Quartz Composer (a Visual Programming application bought by Apple and then developed extensively since as part of Developer Tool suite for developing run-time compiled image processing compositions). Comparing QC and Grasshopper is really interesting in terms…See More
