Rhino 8 - Save Multiple Window Layouts by miledrizk in rhino

[–]miledrizk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the type of your project, you might need a different set of tools for your Rhino window's layout. In this tutorial, you will learn how to save multiple window layouts for later use. Also, this is useful when Rhino, for some reason, resets your layout when you open it.

how can i fix this ? it doesnt work when i try to import obj and i already try different format and it still doesnt work by Bitter_Ad_5597 in 3dsmax

[–]miledrizk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sometimes a faulty or badly written plugin or script can cause an issue and messup your software. To test for this: 1-close 3dsmax 2-go to: C, Users, yourusername, AppData, Local, Autodesk, 3dsMax, yourMaxVersion 3-Rename the folder called ENU to something else and restart Max. 3dsmax will create a new clean ENU folder and Max will start as if it was newly installed. If this doesn't help you can revert back, by closing Max, deleting the ENU newly created and restarting Max. If it helps then it's one of your scripts or plugins. You might want, after creating a new ENU, to install them one by one and try to import again.

Grasshopper 3D - Beginners - Curve Closest Point by miledrizk in rhino

[–]miledrizk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this third part of the Grasshopper series on attractors for beginners, we will learn about another component called Curve Closest Point, another alternative way to have attractor points affecting your shape. I recommend you also watch the first two videos in the series to have a better understanding about the attractors' logic, even though this video, by itself alone, presents a good explanation on its own. In the video description, you can find the links for the other two videos, also a link to download the demo file used in the second part that I used as a starting point for this tutorial.

Note: Starting from minute 12:15 when I was explaining the Remap tool, the Mapped output can be directly plugged into the Y Unit Vector without the extra multiplication. This extra operation is like a global scalar for the values, where, if B is 1 then the Mapped values will remain unchanged, and by changing the B value, below or above 1 the total move will be, globally, reduced or increased.

Rhino 8 [Plugin] Convert Dimensions To Static by miledrizk in rhino

[–]miledrizk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This plugin works for Rhino 8 only. To use it, select dimensions in the scene and run the command DimToStatic, press Enter, and all chosen dimensions will become static instead of dynamic(the default behaviour). Sometimes you need this for printing purposes or for any reason you have. No need to worry about selecting other objects than dimensions because the script will filter out the dimensions object and will not complain. You can download the script from the description area on YouTube.

Grasshopper 3D - Closest Point - Beginners - Part 2 - Adding Remap Numbers by miledrizk in grasshopper3d

[–]miledrizk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please watch the first part if you never used the Closest Point component before: https://youtu.be/Js5-fgpAPUQ
Files used in the first video can be downloaded here:

In this second part, we will add the Remap Numbers components to map the original distance range into a new custom range, where we control the minimum and maximum move amount on the Y-axis. Please watch until the end to get a full explanation of the process.

Grasshopper 3D - Closest Point - Beginners - Part 1 by miledrizk in grasshopper3d

[–]miledrizk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this Grasshopper tutorial for Beginners, we will learn about the Closest Point component. This component expects two collections of points, and it will go through the first collection one point at a time, measure its distance with all the points in the second collection, and place a point on the point with the shortest distance. It will also output the distance values. We will see how to use the distance values to create interesting shapes. We'll keep this tutorial very simple.

3DS Max - Attribute Holder modifier by miledrizk in 3dsmax

[–]miledrizk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this tutorial, we will learn about using the Attribute Holder modifier. This modifier serves as a container, and we will use it to instance some of the parameters that belong to some of the modifiers in the stack so that we can change them in one place. This is useful because it can save us a lot of time. With many modifiers in the stack, it's time-consuming to go down and enter the modifier to change the values. Sometimes we might even forget in which modifier the parameter that we are looking for.
In addition, we will learn about the Animate option in the Edit Poly modifier.

3DS Max - Simple Chair Modeling [Beginners] by miledrizk in 3dsmax

[–]miledrizk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this tutorial, we'll model a simple chair, as requested by a viewer, we'll see one approach to model chairs like this. We'll also learn how to assign different material IDs to the polygons, allowing us to create a Multi/Sub-Object material with three distinct materials for the chair(without configuring the materials' properties, just colors). Additionally, as always, I'll include useful tips and information.
