[Plugin][$] TopoShaper - v2.7a - 01 Apr 24
-
Error in SU make, I installed toposhaper in SU make this morning, and got this error. I used the same terrain in SU8 no error using the same procedure. Just wanted to let someone know.
-
I will publish a fix for this error.
However, I am interested in seeing your model, as it may be related to defects in the contours.

I just tried again this morning and it worked, but somehow things were different, not sure what is going on. The model was simply a geolocation grab, from within SketchUp.

As requested in the documentation, here is the error report I get when trying to edit a generated terrain.
On Mac (french) and PC (english) same error.

I found the error. Will go into the next release.
If you wish to skip this error, select a contour anywhere in the model, then deselect it and select your Terrain Group.Fredo

NEW RELEASE: TopoShaper v1.1b - 02 Mar 14
This minor release fixes a bug preventing to reload generated terrains, as signaled by Mariocha
I also published a few sample contours model so that you can exercise TopoShaper
See main post of this thread for Download of TopoShaper.

Chinese text dislocation selection panel，Does not affect use. Thank you

Hi Guys,
I wanted to see if anyone might be able to help me figure out what's causing errors in this model. The odd thing is that it doesn't seem to throw out any actual errors, the model just gets to a certain point in the script and stops. No errors, but using any tool, trying to get out of the script or going to revert causes either Windows Runtime Errors or BugSplat.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm helping out someone in the office who set up the model, so I have somewhat limited knowledge of her workflow, especially with a bit of a language barrier.
Thanks,
Matt

What OS and SketchUp version? Did you submit the BugSplats? Did you enter any information we can use to find it?
-
Windows 7 64-bit, running 13.0.4812. The first time the Runtime Error happened, the screen just flickered in a out and then it disappeared. A BugSplat or two timed out on hitting Send, but I'm going to fiddle with it more as I have a little while free now to try to get more info out of it. Appreciate the help gents.
EDIT: Just successfully submitted a BugSplat. Description here: "Attempting to use Fredo6's TopoShaper Plugin with a contour file, strange errors happen. The plugin gets halfway through calculating the 2d Map, then just sort of stops. No errors are generated, but activating other tools does nothing. Right clicking on the group generated by TopoShaper causes a stall, followed by BugSplat."

Matt,
A few point:
- The model is extremely heavy (24,000+ edges). It deserves some clean up.
2)In particular the second lonely contour from the right of the model is really messy with a lot of tiny edges and edge overlaps. This is the faulty contour
-
In Cleansing mode, make sure you reject the suspicious junctions (the long ones) which do not make sense. TopoShaper does not always propose good junctions!
-
With these cleanup steps, you can obtain a first shape of the terrain.
-
hmm... that bugsplat report didn't tell us anything more than it happened deep into Ruby code. Somewhere in the context menu handler when it create new Command objects. Trail stops with little info there...
Are you able to reproduce this crash in SU2014? There's a lot of crash fixes from SU2013 to SU2014. -
@Fredo: Thanks Fredo, I appreciate the time you took to investigate. I'll pass on the info of cleaning up the file, though I've come to find that usually falls on deaf ears around here. I'd think the benefits of working cleanly and efficiently would be self evident, but oh well! I don't have to work with it!
@tt_su: Thanks ThomThom, I'll try to reproduce the error in SU2014. We're working on getting the whole office upgraded, so once we get that, I'll let you know what I find. Just out of curiosity, where does the BugSplat info get stored on a Windows 7 System? I've tried to look just out of curiosity more than anything, but can't ever seem to find it (I also haven't looked that hard).
-
You won't be able to get any sensible of the temp files it dump. I'm not sure if they remain for any longer than for the files to be submitted. To get real value out of them you really need to be using the BugSplat backend.

Haha so it's quite beyond me at the moment...thanks! -
thank you so much for this amazing plugin.. life saver i must say..
-
one small thing... i think the info about the grid spacing should be mirrored to correspond with the division number above and the arrows.
But once again: fantastic plugin!!! Very helpful! Thanks!

Hi,
I have a problem with this file (originating from a DWG import).This represents a drying pond.
The terrain generated extended outside the top-most contour (each contour is on its own layer).
I also tried to manually remove the "apron" but was unsuccessful.
-
Toposhaper is really great but not enough powerfull or precise for big landscape datas !
I had to find another solution for those big projects
http://rendering.ru/ru_en/splineland.html
This is the only valuable and reliable solution I found.
Fredo, if you could do something like that for future Toposhaper updates... just a dream...
