gone with the wind topic: since this is utterly Academic the main issue here is to oversimplify LBS (in real life: a collection of columns/beams/slabs/X members + tube frame rigid members (shafts/elevators/cats/dogs)). Reason is that if we use the real "solids" (turned into meshes) as the "node" pool for the hinges required ... only HAL 9000 could solve it in "real-time" (for instance an E5 Xeon 1630 v3 takes ... several minutes). And this is ... er ... challenging I must say. This is a typical case where "simplifying" means "stupidity" almost instantly.

where's my collection of "bend-a-truss-that-looks-like-a-tower" K1 demo defs? Is in this workstation or in another? (blame Alzheimer).
Spam off.
More soon.…
rotate back to zero degree (start position) then don't rotate, then rotate to -80 degree, then back to zero degree (start position) and stay there.
I hope the you can help me.
Thank you.

I experimented with many different texture effects. In the end I decided i liked the idea of the outer surface being eroded smooth. With the articulate texture protected within folds.

ase to give the same result using a graph mapper with a parabola as in the attached file
Unfortunately it never gave the same result ..... is it a mistake in the book ?!…
Chris,
Again the number of curves which SubCrv gives me is different from the actual curve on the surface! for example it gives me 80 curves in which there are 20 curves!
