quarel Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 (edited) hi there! I'm bothering a few days with the problem of weaving the rope! I tried to understand how the rope is woven , but this doesn't help me. I can't solve it so can't model it. I have a lot references. A few I zipped as attachment ,also with unsuccesfull printscreen of geometry.Please Can anyone help me with it, how should I proceed it? My idea is to model three woven thin ropes and then the main rope made from 8 theese woven ropes. I attached reference in Zip. Also I attached in Zip two renders from grashopper scripted proces, where the woven structure is shown.But it's slightly something different. Just for the example of no coliding volumes of structure. I thinking if it's possible to do trough L-systems? references.zip woven rope.hipnc Edited December 17, 2009 by quarel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 There was a really elegant 4-5 SOP solution posted on the forums but I can't find it anymore. Anyhow, here's one approach: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gyepes Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hey quarel, All I was going to suggest is that if the weave is tight enough you might be able to get away with using displacement, like the yellow rope for example... Certainly also depends on how close-up it will be. thanx a lot!!for advice , i solved it ...not so perfect as I wanted but equally.... still I looking for solution to make a joint on this rope.
