        It's a wonderful plug-in, ten minutes to whip up this.

          What a coincidence that our separate lines of work would meet like that! 😲

          You are doing things I never imagined people would do with this plugin. πŸ‘

                  Hi halim,

                  The top torus with 20 twists had these settings:

                  settings 20 twists.png

                  The bottom six tori had these settings, except they each have a different twist parameter varying from 0-5.

                  settings 0-5 twists.png

                  P.S. Welcome to the forum!

                        Error Message

                        Hi RP

                        I downloaded this plugin but it gives me an error message when I try to run it:

                        I'm using the default torus parameters...

                        Joel


                        Torus error message

                          The error is related to Fredo's AdditionalFolder plugin. Are you running this from a folder other than the default plugins folder?

                            Not at all. I've installed the plugin directly into SU's default Plugins folder. Would it help if I removed Fredo's AdditionalFolder plugin?

                              I'd try it at least. Then we can identify a clash between plugins.
