thanks guys ! I'll send more pictures asap

hi mates !

quick screenshot of one perspective I did last night ^^

I never learned a software that fast. Thx to all of you guys, I really appreciate ! I will subscribe to premium member ^_^

I will test to export the shadows from sketchup and tweak it with photoshop

once the file is open, I can easly navigate in it. I now have to find a nice way to render

It's the 7meg file, without the edges in solid tube!

here's a link for the sketchup file : I really like the way the net is shaped

(we.tl)

everything is different

Here's what i did the past few days 2 scenario because its an interactive net that goes up and down as the tide interact.

Draw wire and EByR plugins were very helpful

This file is about 7megs.

I did use the line to cylinder it's working great but I took me several hour as I did each group of net one by one. The file is like 140meg

I did some test with kerkythea for the rendering it crashed many times, the model is too complex I'm not sure how to proceed for the next phase.

My deadline is in 10days ahah !

I'm still up ! héhé

I'm stupid ^^

Here's what I mean. See the physic is nice when one line is moved, but it moves at the end (bottom left) too... I'd like to be able to simulate where is the net goes when it drop !

ahaha I wish I could lay down in a hammac ! Mon pays c'est l'hiver !

Génial Pilou ! Tu sais s'il existe un outil similaire à l'outil ''cease d'artisan'' comme sur la photo dont je viens de poster?

This plugin makes it looks really nice !

Is there another plugin that I could use to fix some summit and use some other summit that I could move.(just like artisan works with the crease tool.) vertex tool ?

woaa this plugin is amazing ! you rock

I think I will have to go with something similar you did ( I mean more space between each squares of the mesh )

Wow it's very nice It's close to what I have in mind. I'd love the net more dense. Could you show me how you did that and I will try myself !? How did you did the rendering ? very cool !

@ Oli : I'm considering this option but the shadow produced from edges by sketchup is not that precise I think... Here is a nice tutorial of one architect I like a lot that explain very well what you just bring : Alex hogrefe : http://alexhogrefe.squarespace.com/ambient-occlusion-tutorial/

oh wow ! I feel ashamed ehehe

It's 26meg but I guess if you delete the bridge it's less than a meg.

Here's the link : http://we.tl/3Zg9yeDhRw

If you could make a video that could be perfect I have 2 scenario to do. One with the net that is lower and one upper. If you notice, there is a line at the extreme end of the bridge, it's about 2.5meter high. The net must not drop above this line. It's why I liked playing with artisan I was able to set a limit
