Grasshopper 0.7.0001 (or rather, Grasshopper 1.0 WIP April-30 2010 as I've been instructed to call it) is now available for download from this location:
This version is a major change from 0.6.X and it is very likely that there will be numerous serious problems with 0.7 for at least a few weeks to come. I'm maintaining the 0.6.00059 download in case anyone needs to fall back onto a working version in a hurry.
Do not use this version on important work and do not overwrite files made with previous versions.
This new version is based on the RhinoCommon SDK which is still in its infancy and not anywhere near as tested and proven as the 'old' DotNET SDK. There's not that much new stuff in this release, it mainly represents a platform switch.
Here's a list of things that definitely won't work in 0.7:
- It won't work in Rhino5
- Sweep1
- Sweep2
- Pipe
- Any custom components developed for 0.6.X
Here's a list of things that probably won't work:
- Slider Animations
- VB and C# scripts written in 0.6.X (I've tried to maintain legacy support, but I probably missed a few cases)
Here's a list of stuff we don't know won't work:
- Yeah... wouldn't that be nice... I suppose this is where you come in.
Note that a lot of components have been shuffled in a desperate attempt to bring some order and simplicity to the over-crowded toolbars. Many of them are now only available via the drop-down panels. Others have been merged into new master components (Addition for example now works on Colours, Numbers, Integers, Vector, Points and Complex Numbers).
Have fun testing and don't claim I didn't warn you,
David
