lol, granted, but you are now one of those people and so is everyone else. Looks like solo got his wish!

I wish that Spanish would be as easy for me as math is.

Granted, it flies out the window and you never see it again.

I wish I could consistently beat my friend Spenser at ping pong.

That satisfies only half of the problem. The slope of e^x and the area under the curve of e^x are equal, but the arc length of e^x is different.

Try solving this problem: Find a function F(x) such that the slope of F(x), the area under the curve of F(x) and the arc length of F(x) are all identical.

If you can solve it without using differential equations, you are a genius
If you can solve it with using differential equations, you are a very hardworking math nerd

Granted but it thrusts you off your chair and breaks your back. Have a nice stay in the hospital!

I wish that I had wished the 400th wish instead of the 401th.

Wow... oh the memories... It's been nearly a year and a half since I was active here, back when I was a home schooled 15 year old. Just looking through this forum I realize how much I have grown since then! Now I'm a 17 year old college student with a full load headed for a career in structural engineering. And I'm glad to be back! You guys are so welcoming!

lol, yes, I'm back. Hopefully to stay for a while.

Dude, these are awesome! Could you refresh my memory on how you make these?

Hey guys, it's been a long time since I last visited here. I'm now at college with a 3.94 GPA and many involvements. This quarter though I will have an open hour each morning during which I will, among other things, toy around in Sketchup some. It appears that my plug in has been successfully replaced by Fredo, but mitcorb mentioned that it would be nice to have a simpler lofting tool as well. I'd like to know whether it world be worth the effort to fix up skin.rb. And if it is, I'd appreciate some details on what problems people are having with it, along with some sample cases.

Hmmm, it doesn't do that on my computer. Let's see if this fixes it.

Version 2.5

Pilou, thank you for the test case. I used it in debugging this version. Hopefully this fixes the problems you guys have been having. The test case still takes my computer several minutes to sort through those 61000 entities and to delete 9000 edges, I don't get how your computer could do it in three seconds .

Version 2.4

Voder, prepping the edges creates the effect that the edges are connected, not just the vertices.

Skin.rb was originally designed to only "skin", or connect, the sides, but it became evident that it sometimes should "prep", or prepare the sides for skinning by splitting the edges. I came up with two methods for skinning the sides and two methods for preparing the sides. I used to have a button for each method, but now I have one skin button and the settings dialog sets what methods skin.rb uses. I hope that you can figure it out. If someone can explain it better than me, please do.

Hello, friends, long time no see. Lament no longer over the fact that this script is not in development. I've recently gotten back to working on this script and have a new version for you all.

The loooong awaited upgrade

Wow, Dubai is mostly on a reef at only 5 meters! A tsunami would devastate that place!

Wow, I have been gone for quite a while and half expected this topic to be very idle, but apparently I am mistaken. I don't know what to say but that I will see if I can get back to working on this soon, hopefully it won't have to wait until summer break. I'm stunned at how long it has been since I released the last version, which is still lacking many planned features.

Well, to date this is my best.

Wow, very well done. The only problem I found was that I cant see how those blinds are suspended in mid air. The strings must be hiding.

No, that's not a very efficient way of doing things at all. Get process explorer, it's a replacement for task manager with Way more functionality. The easiest way to spot spikes in cpu usage is to turn on the cpu history column in process explorer.

Yeah, I was thinking almost the same thing just for more joystick control. Making it so that you can rename the controller as "joyLX.reverse" or "joyThrottle*2" shouldn't be too hard, would it?.
