Beam

I have this really old monkey file.

Now I wiuld like to use it inside grasshopper but I am just learning how to use

VB components its kind of dificult and tricky so far. I was never really good and VB.

I went to a workshoop with Marc Fornes :P but I thought it was really difficult.

well now I was wondering if I could pass this to grasshopper. and if anyone could give me a hand in how to do it

any advice???

thanks

No is not "somethin" like that it is exactly that!

now I can take a look and learn from it how you did it!

Thanks!

only one problem that I never understood

If you take a look at the image you can see a problem that never happens with the script (a orientation problem).

Actually I made a post earlier asking for help about this.

but I didn't understand (does this has to do with the vector orientation?)

here is the previous post

I talked to Davide del Giudice from http://www.co-de-it.com/wordpress/info

before and we were emailing each other. and he helped me to create a beam system for grasshopper. but it has the same problem!

it seems like something really simple but no one as this definition public out there.

could you help me post this and I get in charge of posting in it on the internet.

thanks!

The base frames for these beams are created from an origin point and a normal vector. That is simply not enough information to fully define a plane, and therefore Rhino pulls a plane orientation out of thin air. If you want your beams aligned with some base vector or surface normal, then that logic needs to be added to the script.

but if I do the same thing only with the script the whole thing doesn't have errors.
