Pipes at Render-time


#1

I don’t usually post too much here but seeing how I use Rhino almost daily thought maybe I should. I personally really like McNeel and Assoc…great company with very open policy - wonderful, wonderful modeler!

In the labs there is a new plugin called curvepiping:

Rhino’s ability to generate curves is very robust and with this little plugin there are many creative things which can be done.

Here’s a quick doodle using the plugin on/with trimmed poly-faces…rendered using Brazil4Rhino. By the way, that’s another very cool plugin getting close to being wrapped up for release.

Thanks for the heads up, I haven’t seen this plugin before. Personally I don’t like using plug-ins. Like to keep my Rhino streamline :smiley:

My work around would be a nice little script. Exceptionally useful that little script… see attached :slight_smile:

Props to the man David Rutten
