Sweep2 help me please!!

Hello everyone!

this is my first discussion :)

I have a problem with a 3d model, sweep2. I checked a lot in the web site and everyone solved it flipping the curves but in my case It doesn't work...

Thanks a lot for helping!

Luca

For Sweep2, the two rails need to be the same direction -- you need to find the start point of both rails that connect to the curve you want to sweep.

You need try a few times to decide which rail to flip, not flip all of them.

but how can I know the start point? is there a way to visualize the direction in GH? Thanks :)

There is a component called "end point" which will pick out the start and end point of a curve.

Other ways exist, too.

If I just loft...the result is like that... -.- I don't understand what's wrong...
is there a way to select all the points of the upper curve and connect them with the basement surface (that one is the shadow, offsetted)
thanks!!

there is something wrong in the curves...even if I connect the point, these are crossed.. :S
