GrassENGINE4 version 2.0

Hi All,

Version 2.0 of the GrassENGINE4 is available for download from the BE courses drive:

S:\Courses\CODE1240\Resources\UE4 PROJECT

Have another look at the readme ... you now need to press T every time you'd like to update the mesh.

This version is much more robust that the last, but I did find it was a little sensitive to setting up the port in the grasshopper script. With some perseverance you'll be fine. Once I had the port set in the grasshopper script matching with the port that UE4 is looking for I couldn't get it to crash unless I went over the poly limit; which is 8000.

I initially thought 8000 as a poly limit was a problem, but upon reflection I think its a reasonable "real world" number of components for a project this size. Interested to hear you comments below if you have an opinion on this.

Regards

Russell

Terminal Line Article

Hi All,

Finally the A+U journal with the Terminal Line article arrived from Japan.

I've scanned and uploaded it to the CODE1240 courses drive under resources/texts/TerminalLine_PrestonScottCohen.pdf

UPDATE: I've also uploaded it to the CODE1240 Moodle page under resources.

Please take a look, it will flesh out this concept more fully for you ... and aid you with Phase 02.

Regards

Russell
