Tbh, this man is a crazy tech guy, he just knows everything.....🤣🤣🤣 I hope to see more grasshopper tutorial related to architecture.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@DesignGoBrr]

Hehe, thanks for the kind words - but I know a very small portion of a few niche areas - faaar from "everything" :D

[@ignaciochiarella694]

It´s the first time I´ve watched and followed a grasshopper tutorial from start to finish and understood what was being done! I enjoyed every bit of it. Thank you!!

[@DesignGoBrr]

Very glad to hear that! :)

[@AbishaiC]

1:03:30 woah cool rocket! The tutorial itself was long enough, he must've downloaded it from somewhere 1:03:32 me waiting for the free cg model website he got it from 1:03:40 DON'T TELL ME YOU MODELLED IT YOURSELF 1:04:00 proceeds to have mind blown Gedi Jedi!

[@DesignGoBrr]

Hehe made my day!

[@byronlambo-hills1950]

Your videos really help me to learn Rhino fast. Thank you so much

[@DesignGoBrr]

Happy to hear that!

[@timmorphine]

Wooo, nice tutorial, kangaroo is my weak side of GH, thanks for making it clearer, liked

[@DesignGoBrr]

Kangaroo is a great tool! I'll be making quite a few more tutorials with it ;)

[@amitthakur01]

Thank you for your effort for sharing this knowledge.

[@DesignGoBrr]

It's honestly my pleasure

[@hzx4994]

The tutorial is really great! It helps me a lot!

[@DesignGoBrr]

Glad to hear that!

[@lobbyboy8490]

Another great video! Thank you, sir! This one reminds me of the strandbeest, do you think grasshopper can simulate it? if so, that would be really cool

[@DesignGoBrr]

Strandbeest should not be simulated but rather mathematically calculated as it's all a rigid system. I'm actually running a course right now that works with it. Check out my "kinetic architecture" tutorials for unreal engine + grasshopper :)

[@annalena4361]

First of all many thanks for this fantastic tutorial. I am working on a project at a university in Germany and I tried to transfer these parameters to a new origami structure in Grasshopper. The Origami folding is very similar and the parameters in Grasshopper make it very easy to fold. However, the Mesh can't be folded completely and breaks off at about 70%. Do you know what the problem could be?

[@DesignGoBrr]

Yup, meshes sometimes break when folding - usually it's the topology that is at fault - what you want to have is as uniform polygon layout as possible (that is why in the tutorial I divide up every polygon with an X). Also - sometimes you might push the slider too fast - that might cause the simulation to overshoot/overstress. If neither one of these suggestions help - try out a plugin Crane , I believe Junichiro Horikawa did a youtube tutorial on it about a month ago.

[@juanjofernandez9174]

As always, great. Congratulations on this super interesting tutorial.

[@DesignGoBrr]

Glad you liked it!

[@benmonahan6989]

Does anyone know what program/software he used to render the satellite as a video at the start?

[@DesignGoBrr]

Vray for Rhino :)

[@chandrasekaran2429]

Thanks it's very nice video 😍thankyou 👌

[@DesignGoBrr]

Most welcome 😊

[@sharan8465]

Hey, I tried whatever you said but my weaverbird's not computing the mesh completely.....what do I do?😢

[@sharan8465]

Please reply

[@Meeeees]

I also have this question 😢

[@박제현-o9n]

Which program did you use for animating them?

[@DesignGoBrr]

Hi, I used Vray for Rhino to render this out. I have a tutorial on my channel on how to use vray with grasshopper

[@divya-kk2jz]

Why do we have to convert points into parameters? 🤔

[@budaiestanaruemanuel836]

Can the grasshopper animation be exported as FBX?

[@DesignGoBrr]

Hi there, there was a forum thread some time ago about this issue: discourse.mcneel.com/t/gh-animation-to-fbx/83750 check it out! I am not sure if it's stable, but there seems to be a way... kind of...

[@arise1mz]

Thank you for this! you are amazing, keep up the good work.

[@DesignGoBrr]

Thank you! Will do!

[@hakankosebas2085]

is it possible to make it in blender geometry nodes

[@DesignGoBrr]

Absolutely!

[@hakankosebas2085]

@@DesignGoBrr but geometry nodes doesn't have solvers like kangroo or crane, how can we achieve it?

[@DesignGoBrr]

@@hakankosebas2085 Ah you want to simulate it... then no.. You could make something like this trough math though - it's all rotations. The problem is - once you change the pattern, the math would need to change. So I guess... then it's a "no" - you should use sim engines for stuff like this

[@hakankosebas2085]

How can we make it in real life i mean physical
