[Plugin] Terrain Reshaper

c'est pas grave, Didier
not a problem
http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/McNeel/PanelingCommands.htmlI used it to do this: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3104/2672948946_b41ed61d61_b.jpg
oh, you beat me, Ilya

OK, I'm less stupid now than this morning

Marvelous plugin, THANKS A LOT!
-
...thanks Didier,very useful!
-
Didier, you're the MAN! thumps chest twice with thumb side of fist
The smoothing can be done with Matt666's smoothing plugin, should work like a charm...
-
Man u are the reason Sketchup is half as cool as it is for me! Keep it up!
-
Mille grazie !
-
Thanks Didier. Great plugin

hi Didier,
I just wanted to clean up a terrain. I used the options
-create group: yes
-delete original: yes
-merge faces: no
-size 600mmwhen it was finished it looked like this
the original terrain had not been deleted. but the new terrain was incomplete where the old mesh was visible (see image above). no idea, why it didnt work. just thought I would tell, in case you have a clue.

@Plot-paris:
Could you PM me the SKP file ? I'm curious to know what bug's still there

And if Ruby was my cup of tea, that will the The Four Musketeers!

And if Ruby was my cup of tea, that will the "club des cinq"
Can you show us or share the starting idea, I would like to see before you apply model with contours.(perhaps I've got an idea using your technic to model terrain).
After a few tests using different methods, I let you guess
who's who.

good morning REGIS,
the initial idea was discussed in this thread.
for the who is who test - could you give us some multiple choice answers?
-
Didier, amazingly useful tool! Thanks so much! Thank you plot-paris and everyone else from this topic for this most excellent idea
-
Didier, don't know if it's possible to do, but it would be helpful (me thinks) if the the script somehow retained the information collected at the "Parsing terrain.." stage, in case one wants to reshape the terrain again with, say, differently sized triangles.

Hey,
I've imported 6-7 GE terrain meshes, exploded them, put them all in a group, and then tried to run didier's plugin.
It didn't come out as expected.
The problem is, i think, that i didn't really merge the different meshes before runnig the script, and that all 6 or 7 of them reacted as independent meshes.
Does anybody have a quick and easy solution for stitching together different meshes imported from GE?Thank you,
Félix

Hi Felix, I think that the problem is just that you need to select all the terrains you want to reshape and turn them into a single group. Then just select the 1 group and run the plugin. It will not accept a selection of loose geometry. Only a single group.
Hope that helps,
Chris

Didier:
Suggestion/Request
When dealing with a large terrain surface, the Parsing, Triangulation, and Merging functions of the script can take quite a while.
I was wondering if at the end of each function (before the user goes to the next) if an elapsed time could be shown. At the completion of the script, then a final dialog would be displayed showing the elapsed time of each function.
This way, if you had to convert a series of similar terrains, you wouldn't have to wait around at your computer ... just go do something else and come back according the to elapsed times of the first reshaping session.

effing fantastic plugin. i could have done with this a few weeks back, works great
-
sometimes, when you have got a terrain with a lot of detail in places and very little information in others, the terrain reshaper has to be set according to the highest level of detail. that results in models with unnecessarily large numbers of vertexes.
therefore the idea for an improved plugin - the Dynamic Terrain Reshaper! you define a maximum vertex size and a minimum vertex size. then the plugin calculates the whole terrain with the large vertices and subdivides, where neccessary, until it reaches the minimum vertex size limit.
was that comprehensible?
