Create construction point in the end of lines
-
Is there a plugin that creates a construction point in the end of each line (line that is not connected to anything) in the model?
I am trying to create a 3D mesh (terrain). I have created lines (with Three Line Tools Plugin) that indicates the height of the terrain in each location. Now, I would like to create a construction point in the end of each line and then use Points to Mesh Plugin to create a terrain.

Hi Miikka,
Are those lines vertical?
If so, select all and simply use the "From contours" tool from the sandbox to create the terrain. -
Thank you Gaieus for offering to help me!
Actually all the lines are vertical. Anyway, I didn't really get the results that I wanted. Do you know if there is better way to create this kind of terrain mesh. My idea is to create the mesh in Sketchup, create a heightmap and then take the heightmap into UNITY 3D software. As you may see from the pictures, I am trying to create a golf course. -
Use only the vertical lines to create the topo. Hopefully they are a different group (or similar) than the existing mesh, aren't they?
Any chance to share the file itself?
-
I also tried to make the mesh from only vertical lines but I pretty much got the same results. Here is the file in case you have time to test different options.
-
The problem in your file is that you do not have the vertical pieces compőletely separately from the underlying geometry and it is extremely hard to make selections this way.
-
Thanks again for your help Gaieus! I deleted the underlying geometry and now I get pretty much the results that I was hoping to get.

Look at the assembly plugin from lss2008 ...
"Create 3d mesh from construction points"

Here an intermediate option, which is ready today: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4885828/lss_toolbar_1_1.zip
before unpacking (or, after) should be removed from the Plugins folder, all the old versions manually (they are now all in the folder will be 'lss_tools' and so when unpacking the surface is not written down)
