[Plugin] Make Fur v.2.1.0(20140323)

tak2hata

Hi,all.
I update this to version1.4b.

Tak2hata I was wondering if you had considered including a random fur height function? I'm currently creating a random height tile/block/city generator... which is not finished yet.
See my RAND code snippet below.

if( $type == "Random + " )  
>     
>     group=entities.add_group
>     entities=group.entities 
>   
>     1.upto($vpanes) do |i|
>       x = ($vtile*i)+(i*$space)  
>       1.upto($hpanes) do |j|
> 	    y = ($htile*j)+(j*$space) 
>         
> 	o = $pt3.offset($hVec, y - $space).offset($vVec, x - $space)
>     pt1 = o.offset($hVec, -$htile)
> 	pt2 = o.offset($vVec, -$vtile)
> 	pt3 = pt1.offset($vVec, -$vtile)
> 	#entities.add_cpoint o
> 	#entities.add_cpoint pt1
> 	#entities.add_cpoint pt2
> 	#entities.add_cpoint pt3
>     face = entities.add_face o, pt1, pt3, pt2
>     face.pushpull -($tthick+rand(20))
>       end
>     end
> end #if

cheers!

Thanks tomot.
But this plugin created preset file.
If I add new parameter, compatible with the old one is difficult for me.
If you want to use random size to component instance, please use crowd(webdialog).
and change value of "size jitter" as you like.

Thanks.

Hi guys,
I lost my dwg-import option after installing the plugin. Any ideas why this happened?

Hi Thomas,

re you sure you did not upgrade from SketchUp 7.0 to 7.1 (free) lately?

Mauhaus

Hi Gaieus

Thanx for replying
Yes, I have been running 7 (7.1.6859) PRO for some time now. The dwg-import option disappeared after installing it. Maybe I didn't install it properly?

I'm sure the install was made properly, however, the dwg/dxf import has been excluded from ver. 7.1 and onwards...
You need a seperate plugin...
Please check out the DWG/DXF import plugin for SketchUp 7.1 (Free)...

That would only be the free version Kim. The pro still has the "native" import option.

As you are not supposed to be able to install the free version on top of the pro, there can indeed be some problem.

However we are going off-topic here so Thomas, after you see my post here, I will split these posts and move the new topic created this way to the SketchUp Discussions > Bug reports subforum.

However you could try to reinstall your SU but really make sure to download the Pro version (again) to install it. Also, for the Mac version there was also a maintenance release after the main release of 7.1. A couple of fixes were made there so best is to go for sure...

TX for the great plugin, I love the idea of the crowedmaker.
But under OSX it does not work, the dialog panel is empty for the crowed option.

Yep, same here. No dialog under MacOX (10.6.3)

can someone tell me how i do this on a mac?
i downloaded the file and updated my version of sketchup. the file only shows up in my downloads and i can't open it with sketchup. i also enabled my plugins menu on sketchup and the only option that shows up is a "cost" option. How do i do this?

This file is compressed by zip.
First, You should extract this file with folder.
It includes
--fur_en.rb
--fur_en(folder include icon images)
and copy created files to plugins folder.

TX Tak,
hope you find the time to look into the blanc dialog for crowds.
I love your idea to specialise the furmaker for crowds

That is due to some oddness in Geom::Transformation.scaling which I mentioned earlier.
http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=28092&p=248300#p248300

But tak2hata said later he's swapped to use .scaling(a,a,a) isntead of .scaling(a) - so that should have taken care of it. Unless there is something else that also creates this scenario.

Oli: are you using the latest version?

thomthom

what happened to Oli's post..?

You do not really need to open it just drop into the plugins folder in your SU application.

Otherwise rb files are text files and should be opened with some simple text editor (never with some word processor!).

I just tried this out on my G5(Power PC) Mac using SU 6 free version... it works like a charm! I look forward to experimenting with this! Awesome job! Thank you!!!

Just a quick test I did... rendered in Kerkythea.
