        Sure for this sort of things SU can't fight with ZB, Wings3D, Blender.. but it has a so sweet ergonomy! β˜€

        I know I know, that's why I can't stop using it. πŸ˜„

          Thomthom's HeightMap to Mesh plugin on a 64px x 64px .bmp

          Tried a 208px x 208px first but it buckled SU. πŸ˜’

            Oh yeah, great little plugin. Isn't there a plugin/algorithm to subdivide a face into these shapes? I'll look into some other techniques to achieve this. Imagine a Voronoi TOS πŸ˜„

              TIG's elegantly named Quadrilatelizer (which has a scrabble score of 968 with three triple word bonuses and bonus for all letters used) can generate a funky yet consistent results.

                Thought so! πŸ˜† Gonna give it a whirl now.

                There seems to be a grasshopper workflow I may look into as well.

                  You need the patient of a saint to wait while SU crunches numbers....not worth the effort though....

                                    Tell me how!!! Cryptic! I can do this in Wings but I don't want to. You see from the video just how easy a subdivision in Wings can be!! The only problem is how many iterations before it will import into SU! πŸ˜†
