Realy nice tool, thanks !

Comment by Romana Suitner on December 16, 2010 at 3:41am: nice!

Comment by Tudor Cosmatu on December 15, 2010 at 9:58am: i have checked the 3 files as well. They are in the specified folders, but still it gives me the same error. thanks in advance!

Comment by Sebastien Perrault on December 15, 2010 at 3:00am: Both files are in the folder, I tried on several computers running XP, with GH 0.8.0004 or GH 0.8.0003, but I still have the same message from the analysis component. I don't understand !

Comment by Karamba3D on December 15, 2010 at 2:16am: Did you install Karamba with Administrator rights? After installing Karamba there should be three new files on your computer: 'karamba.dll' and 'libiomp5md.dll' in the 'Grasshopper'-folder and 'Karamba.gha' in the 'Components'-folder of Grasshopper. You should check whether that's the case.

I did now some preliminary tests with Karamba and GH 0.8.004 on a XP-machine and did not encounter any problems.

Comment by Sebastien Perrault on December 14, 2010 at 8:22am: Running the example files (with GH 0.8.0003) I get the same error :

'fem.karambaPINVOKE'

??

Comment by Karamba3D on December 14, 2010 at 6:06am: please try again with gh 0.8.0003 !

we did not check with 0.8.0004 yet

Comment by Tudor Cosmatu on December 14, 2010 at 4:18am: looks really neat!

i m having some problems though, the model component (even when running the example files keeps throwing back an error):

Solution exception: The type initializer for 'fem.karambaPINVOKE' threw an exception

I'm running Gh 0.8.0004

Thank you in advance for any suggestions

Comment by Karamba3D on December 14, 2010 at 2:08am: after installation examples are typically in the folder:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Rhinoceros 4.0\Plug-ins\Grasshopper\Karamba\Examples
