@@ParametricHouse hey what about meshmachine in rhino 7?

[@zahrasalehi5846]

Thank you for sharing this tutorial. for those who want to practice it with new versions of Rhino, you can use "Trimesh" and after that "Triangulate", instead of "Mesh Machine"

[@freis4532]

Where would you connect the triangulate to on the Trimesh?

[@gonzalofalla6658]

Best tutorial by far, thank you

Top lesson! Great channel! Thank you!

The new version of kangaroo hasn't got mesh machine component. Which is the new sobstitute? Great tutorial. Yout lessons are very clear. I can understand you even if i'im a italian who doesn't know english very well

[@juantonello6589]

have you been able to find meshmachine in rhino 7? i have been trying to but i cannot find it. its driving me nuts.

Thank you for providing us a very good material for learning, keep doing it please!

Thank you, I will :)

Very good explanation, I learn a lot from this video, thanks

[@iremsemiz9396]

Loved it. You are great!!!

Was thinking this was same architectural nonsense where terrible boundaries are left to the engineer to resolve. I was wrong. This is decent. Bravo

Hi, I can not download the cocoon plugin. It seems the website has stopped working (This domain is pending renewal or has expired. Please contact the domain provider with questions.). Any alternative dl links? Or can anyone upload it somewhere? Thank you very much in advance!!

I have an error.. My refine isn't giving me the final output. Instead when i gave all the parameters to the refine in cocoon, it's giving me a red error! Could you help me resolve this please!

[@tommasovidali3556]

I have the same error. When I connect all the input to the refine mesh, the command gets red!

Same here. Need help!!!!!

thanks for your effort

[@euginaduan6234]

Great Channel!!!

[@Redmanuka]

really cool tutorial , cheers :)

[@alperenkalkan4170]

the thing is, you couldn' create window panels by using wb's dual graph, you just extract curves. How can we get meshes?

[@boblee5331]

is there a similar command in Kangaroo2 for 'MeshMachine' command? thanks!

[@sean1782]

hi, when I finish this mesh and bake, but i can not explode or trim this mold

[@handjiiski]

When I try to increse the interations for MeshMashine it gives me an error: 1. Solution exception:Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index

[@hehe-ou1vb]

thanks

[@rickstahh]

Hi, I can't find MeshMachine in Kangaroo2

[@user-fu3fh5tz3k]

Search 'Meshmachine Kangaroo' on google, You can download it.

[@iyellalot]

its showing, 'system cannot find the file specified'

[@feikejansen9921]

Amazing video! Is it also possible to make the mesh out of rectangular' windows' ? Which tool should I use for that?

[@ellegold1039]

I cant see the Mesh in Rhino? Wireframe Mode is active? Thx for any help---

[@giovannidamato5825]

Fantastic!!

[@yauheniyakarpenka4371]

Firstly thanks a lot for the tutorial, it´s amazing:) The only problem I had that when I turn boolean toogle to ´false´ it shows MESH MACHINE tool in red and turns a model off. Could you help please? (I´m using Rhino 7 + Kangaroo Physics plugin)

[@hokagenam]

I cant find the meshmachine option with the kangaroo i am using, neither is the mesh showing up on the mass. How can I resolve this? Please help with the correct kangaroo version. Thank you (rsvp).

[@EveryThing-ux8vk]

thank you for usefull toturail

[@jakuboszczyk1403]

Any idea why while running the refine component from cocoon the warning appears - "solution exception: parameter #5 cannot be marshaled/unmanaged type combination (arrays can only be marshaled as LPArray, ByValArray or SafeArray)" ? I set all the values as in the video. Btw, great tutorial!

[@ParametricHouse]

The refine component is tricky and it often gives error. Try changing your base mesh size (decrease it)

[@jakuboszczyk1403]

Didn't work, the same problem happens with the MeshMachine tool.

[@seanpretorius718]

Hi guys. The mesh machine plugin seems to be missing from Kangaroo! Which version of Kangaroo are you running?

[@ParametricHouse]

Hi Sean, you should install the Kangaroo Physics plugin (not kangaroo 2)

[@seanpretorius718]

Hi and thanks a lot for the tutorials, they are very simple to study. I got a problem with the meshmachine component, because in Kangaroo 2.42 is not present. Which component I could put instead of? Sorry for my bad english...

[@niteshbharatwaj3885]

Great Tutorial, it gave me a good start to metaball like structures. I got a similar output on following the tutorial successfully. But, is there a way to create surfaces with other than triangulation???

[@niteshbharatwaj3885]

to be more precise - a mesh with hex pattern.

[@ParametricHouse]

You can use the Dual graph to produce hexagons on a triangular mesh

[@dikshamalani4238]

CAN WE SET EQUAL ANGLE IN MESH MACHINE , BECAUSE I WANT TO CREATE EQUILATERAL TRIANGLES IN TH EMESH WITH SAME ANGLES AND LENGTH. CAN U GUIDE ME FOR THIS?

[@matiputiurki]

How can I make the same thing with voronoi mesh ?

[@ParametricHouse]

Use the dual graph in weaverbird

[@bartbliek469]

Bit late to the party but would it be possible to do this with custom geomtery? It seems like you can only imput points with different radii, but what if I want to control and position elipsoids for example?

great!

hello i was wondering why can't i bake the model at weaverbird's mesh thicken, it said it is an invalid object, what could possibly be the issue? Thanksss

[@ParametricHouse]

Yes it happens a lot a simple fix is to use Pufferfish mesh offset instead.

[@amircrysis]

Hello again my dear tutor I just wondered is there any possible way to turn this to surface for paneling stuff in lunchbox? I'm really confused

Hi Amir, unfortunately no. This is a mesh surface while Lunchbox is for Nurbs

great Tutorial, thanks a lot!! definitely planning on watching more of your videos quick question though: the refine tool gives an error and shows this message: 1. Solution exception:Could not load file or assembly 'Plankton, Version=0.3.4.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. any idea how i might fix it?

never mind, it works fine now somehow. the problem had something to do with the plug-in installation. apparently i did not install it properly.

hello so i made a wrist spint using this video but the finnished product is not okay, is there any way to make the edges of the mesh thicker. The thicknes of the triangles is okay but some edges are really thin.

It really depends on your project but you can also install mesh+ plugin and see if it helps

The base of cocoon is smooth but you have to use kangaroo's meshmachine to triangulate it.
