Yeah, that is precisely right. Currently it is only marginally better than curve stitcher (For example, mine is faster, doesn't twist geometery like shown in the video, and you can subdivide to make it a smother mesh, and it works with more than just 2 curves). But like you say, its the bezier connections that will make this awesome! I'm working on that right now and I should be able to get something up and running today.

Looks great!! Very good first version Chris!!
I'm wondering what will be the the missing key piece.
There is not too much to say because you mention most of the problems in "what´s missing".
Having to Make the Splines with the same amount of segments is perhaps the problem that makes it more difficult to use.Congratulations and thank you!!!

can it already connect closed lines to open ones?
-
No, not at this point. Only works with open "splines" that do not close, and they have to have the same amount of edge segments.
And unfortunately, getting it to work with closed splines will take a lot of re-programming
I probably won't get to that very soon. But in time. Its definitely do-able. I just need to re-think some things.Chris
-
Very nice Chris, you really have a handle on what is needed.....
BTW, I PM'd you about another idea for a script.
-
Thanks Andrew!
Chris
PS: Yes, I got the PM. I will have to get back to you on that, it sounds very interesting. And I might need some pictures to help wrap my head around the entire idea
-
Will send you a few pics and video's....
-
UPDATE! Script and video updated.
I've now got the bezier connections from spline to spling working. What does that mean?
Essentially the lofting actually works now. Its a huge improvement.
You still need to make all splines have the same amount of segments though. That will be the next piece I tackle, I promise!

video isn't loading.... Just get a white square...
-
It doesn't have a loading screen?
-
Sorry, its a big video. about 30mb and it takes a long time to load sometimes. So open that front page in another tab and let it load while you browse other pages.
Chris
EDIT: Or, as it turns out, I forgot to actually upload it to my server.
Try it again, thanks for the heads up! -
Oh your fast. Sorry, yeah I didn't upload it. So its uploading and should be ready now to try again.
Thanks for pointing it out!
Chris
EDIT: Still having issues....hold on.
EDIT AGAIN: OK, now its working!
-
Loading!
-
Wow Chris, this is amazing. Thank you very much for this and all of your other scripts.
-
Chris! That's fantastic!
If you find yourself in Norway I'll buy you a big pint of beer!
-
Again.....Thanks very much. This is just amazing....great update! And if your ever in Vancouver, I'll buy you a jug of beer!
