jhorikawa Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I've recently started using Houdini coming from a Grasshopper/Rhinoceros + Architectural background and quickly I realized it's such a great tool for parametric & procedural design for modeling some geometrical shapes which sometimes GH is not good at. I'm planning to post tutorials for Houdini to following Facebook page and Youtube channel as my note how to make geometries I'm interested in.

Nik Willmore Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Exact same thing here, after four solid years of trying to turn Grasshopper into my geometry engine, I learned Python and suddenly realized that I had become a generalist and that Grasshopper and its forum were limiting me when I wanted access to serious algorithms but they were all in animation software, not Rhino! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noobini Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 the voronoi frac gives you inside/outside groups so just stick in a delete, click dropdown list, pick inside ? can't be simpler than that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but I wanted to have a straight line for voronoi cell on the mesh surface. If there's any simple way to achieve it I'm happy to hear it.

Noobini Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 yeah the part where you use neighbourcount is fine, just the part where you want to delete the 'inside' of the sphere...seems overly complicated when as said, just use logic above ?

Noobini Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 here, i'm using 1 sphere...yes very simple...but it's just a proof of concept... straightvoronoi.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look at it. edit: just looked at the file, simple + awesome! I learnt new stuff thank you! Edited January 20, 2018 by jhorikawa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobini Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 (edited) it's nothing really...I know you said you're relatively new to Houdini...so it's simply coz you hadn't come across inside/outside of voronoi that comes for free...then taking advantage of it...that's all. But your experience in applying grasshopper to Houdini is great tho...like me trying to do stuff in houdini that I did with Max MCG...just cross polination...main principles still the same...keep up with the tutorials ps: I'm a non-coder so with me you'd see more nodes and less codes...
