Exporting geometry to Ecotect

I had made a definition where I could loft a very crude tower, link it to ecotect and then use galapagos to find the best solution. This worked out fine when I used polygons to loft the tower. When I use Circles to loft the tower somehow the meshes aren't getting imported. The file with the circles ( and doesnt work) is def env cylinder. I have also attached the original definition envir polygon.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Omar,

You need to increase the number of faces when converting your tower from brep to mesh. This kind of round structure can not be converted into Mesh with only 1 face in each (U,V) direction.

Check the attached file.

btw, I used weather data for different city. Apply the one from India you had, after you open the .gh file.

Thanks so much for clearing that up.
