"i just downloaded a trial version of modo 601, was wondering whether you would have any advice on how to achieve the results? kind regards"

"Hi,  Are you talking in terms of kangeroo? ive tried clothides in cinema 4d and 3dsmax to no effect. Im going for an incheon tri bowl effect. thanks for your reply"

"Ive been thinking about t-splines and think its the only way but of course i went down the route of mac a while back to grasshopper has never really happened for me. As for feeling the flow, ive been trying :) The effect im looking for is similar to…"

"Hi, Just looking at this post above, im having trouble with a project of my own and was wondering how you had achieved the result in the image you posted? I have three surfaces a distance apart and want to link them together with a continuous…"

"Hi, I'm doing an architectural project for school and trying to create tensile structures. Could you help in sharing a demo file for something like what you did here? A kangaroo file with mixed elements such as struts, tension cables and a…"

"I have just tried it out and, yeah, it is possible.   But it happens that there is an archord point that does nothing, one of the two nearer points at right as you open the file.   Can it be fixed?  "

"Hello Daniel,   Is it possible to put the points in the middle of the mesh like in your vimeo and not just on the edges of the mesh?   Thank you!"

"heelo I have downloaded weaverbird and meshtools (mesh edit and geco for GH - are those the correct plugins?) but I still seem to be missing something - the MWP box? (see pic) when I open the Catenary2.ghx in catenary2.3dm, i get this error…"

"Daniel,   the scissor linkage is nice to play around with. The addition of rigid line elements would be a bonus. I see in the settings component that there is a 'friction' function. can it be applied to a pivot hinge, around a single…"

"Here's an example of a pantograph linkage in kangaroo.   It is done by splitting the lines at their hinge point then adding bending stiffness to keep the line straight.   I am looking though at the possibility of adding rigid line…"

"Ah...   It works ;-) and looks awesome   Our research group Transformable Structures is involved in rigid origamy, but also deployable scissor structures. Can hinges between two beam elements be modeled as well, with appropriate…"

"As well as toggling the boolean you need to also start the timer by double clicking it.   I have done some stuff with Kangaroo+Galapagos - I'll try and find something to post soon"

"Thanks for replying so quickly. The missing plugins... that makes sense. I'm on it   Niels   p.s.: do you have any definitions which make use of galapagos?"

"Hi Niels,   As your Rhino and Grasshopper are up to date I suspect the issue may lie with some of the additional plugins. Several of the demos posted make use of components from UTO's mesh tools or Giulio's Weaverbird to do things…"

"Daniel,   I marvel at the examples videos I see about Kangaroo, yet do not manage to get an example working. All example files I try to open are missing objects (I think this is due to the non-backward compatibility?).   Currently I am…"

"Im trying to download this version so that i can run rabbit 0.2 but both the exe file and zip file dont seem to work. Is there any where else i can get this version of GH from?   cheers"
