[Plugin] Teapot

That's great Thom, I am sort of surprised that SU didn't include this. It is the most famous 3d object in the world. Thanks for writing it,
Chris

Very cool! Where's the button to make it dance?

Nice, couldn't you modelize bottle of wine and glass too ?

Well, This whole project has got me thinking about patch modelling in SketchUp. So maybe you will be able to create your own parametric patch objects eventually.

Be fun if you used one of the animation plugins and made one!
Make the all the 2D-face-me Googlers dance around as well. -
Cool plug!

thats great Thomthom! at last SketchUp is definitely and undeniably a fully professional modeller. no one can question that anymore now

Updated to make it work under SU6.

[quote="MALAISE"]Nice, couldn't you modelize bottle of wine and glass too ? :lol:The teacup (primitive) is quickly a wine glass, so now if you can make the Champagne bottle we can 'CHEERS' thomthom appropriately.
Great concept, well executed,
as a thought, can this be modified to be a 'make_ primitive .rb' with all the whistles and bells for all those incredibly repetitive, but slightly different components I keep making?
cheers

What bells and whistles is that?
I only used the existing dataset that was available for the teaset. But if you have bezier patch data it's easy to add more objects.

the UI, specification ability and progress report/warning.
I found a python script for hypyocoloids that I want to use in SU but have no idea of how to implement.
On seeing this, I thought having a hypyocoloids primitive would be very useful for myself and maybe one other person on the planet.
I haven't got anything on my mac that's been able to even test the py script yet.
I have scratch built one to try in SketchyPyhsics, but they need to be so accurate to work, I haven't succeeded (by using dimensioned geometry) yet.
I don't know if this [py] script uses bezier patches as I don't know what they are. I'll attach a zip so you can to have a look, maybe...
cheers
love the teaset.
-
"hypyocoloids"? I find nothing when I Google that.
-
I have other links but on my way out just now so will check back and upload later if you want them
cheers john

Are you introducing a new family of Rubies? something like "Nonsense Tools

we know Photon Mapping
Do you know "TeaPot Mapping rendering" ?
Extrude Edges by Rails + selection manager + selection memory + Weld + Component Stringer.
I've probably missed the simple way by a4chitect_SmartDrop!! let see.simon

is that a closeup of SketchUp's voxels?

That's it!
More seriously,
I'm doing actually my first renders and Teapot Tool is perfect to produce easily and quickly very nice models to render. It represents to me a very useful tool. ..many thanks.
