Member Przemas Posted September 20, 2013 Member Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 A couple of weeks ago we've needed a rope segment we could use to create spline tool so adding ropes would be fast. I've created a quick model in Rhino that did the trick. Humbly admit I haven't tried that inside 3d Coat so far, but it should work in it nicely . The ends match each other perfectly so there shouldn't be any issues. Thought I'd share . Hope someone will find it useful . rope_small_segment.obj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Przemas Posted September 21, 2013 Author Member Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I've just tested it inside 3d Coat - it has turned out that I need to flip the piece by 90 degree. Attached to this post you'll find corrected file. Also I plan to play with mesh settings - need to figure out which will work best (as I'm making those in nurbs I can set the density, max angle and so on). Here's how it looks so far: rope_small_segment.obj 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member castaneda Posted April 6, 2014 Advanced Member Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 I tried this rope segment and it works great. It took a little adjusting in the x,y, and z parameters but it ended up matching beautifully. Always can use a rope segment for curves.
