Metaball 02

"In your definition, how did you stop the metaball component from making circles at each point along the divided curves? I am getting an overlap of metaball circles where I just want the final outlines at each cross section. I am not quite sure how…"

"Gwyll, above is a voxellogic program called acropora and it seems to yield interesting results. I am very interested in pwrapper and pflow. I have yet to experiment with them, but they seem to encompass a more mathematical or at least logical means…"

"There are a bunch of ways to isosurface particles or geometry, the best ways I have found are using either 3ds max with a plugin called PWrapper, or using Meshlab, or some voxellogic software, or (really a strech) an old dos program that comes up if…"

"Metaballs are good, but good luck processing that amount of geometry and "skinning" it. I suggest weaverbird, specifically the frame component accompanied by thicken and catmull. I have done similar things before, the processing is not…"

"Gwyll, I definitely agree that this may have been generated with a marching cubes or metaball. Does anyone know a good metaball 3D script or definition anywhere? In your definition below, how are you generating the points? or are you placing them…"

Bone Structure

"This is fantastic. Are you connecting the points of the point cloud with a proximity 3d component and then some how creating mesh around.. polylines? Did you then smooth the mesh in gh or another software? It looks very clean. Awesome work!"

orange peel mutation 2.1

"Hey man this might be close to what I am trying to achieve through my post about the web or bone structure. Did you use an algorithm or just a simple function to populate the initial geometry before you punched the holes and smoothed? I would love…"

"I have tried that definition with the latest version of grasshopper, and it does not work. Weaverbird is capable of doing the same thing though so I can probably figure out the smoothing. I just need to figure out how to populate the geometry either…"
