[Plugin][WIP][OpenSource] Bezier Surface
-
Hi Thomthom and guys, can anyone move a point with a fixed measurement?
Each time I try to move say 2m to the side, the measurement box assumes I want 2 subdivisions and the SU bugsplats. Is it only me and maybe a plugin clash or does it happen to more users?
I think subdivision is really important to be able to input quickly, but distance is even more. What would you feel about introducing subdivisions as "2s" while "2" would be used for units?
(Thomthom - I submited the bugsplats.)
What a wonderful plugin this is! Such an intuitive way of modeling surfaces!
Thanks,
João

Yes for me using the Gizmo defaults to subdivisions and will bug splat if you try 2.
However, the Move tool works properly with measurements, including 2m. -
I think this will become the skinning plugin of choice for bodywork and such very quickly.
For example: You know how fiddly it can be to set up the sections to make a nice curviloft helicopter, or a smooth hood for you car etc etc
This Huey skin took no time at all, it's all done by eye, a little more effort or a framework to work to and you would have lovely clean skins.

Another brilliant plugin ThomThom!!! Great!!!

Another situation where surface is brilliant.
The ten minute custom shaped bathtub.
The bath itself and it's edge are a solid skin, theoretically printable.

Shame also that we can't scale to 0.
Those are the only things that make this imperfect, otherwise the tool is GORGEOUS to work with!

I assume you are asking me.
No I don't have the original as you need to explode it to work on it.
It would have looked very similar to this before I trimmed the rim and gave it a follow me profile. It's only a few moves to create it, move the center down, scale a few points lift a bit here and there.....

thank you very much for sharing this very fun tool.
a consultation:
as add tripatch tool is used? -

Which platform and what OS? Did you mention Bezier Surface in the BugSplats?

That sounds like a good idea. Filing feature request.

I'm not entirely sure I understand the steps for this. Can you elaborate?
-
If you type 2 enter, in other words try to set the subdivisions to 2, it will bug splatt.
-
Other suggestion, it would be very interesting if you could adjust the control points to a external geometry of the bezier surface, like the inference in SU, so you can adjust quickly your bezier surface to a predefined shape.

Where are the instructions?
