More details of this license terms
11. For some Items, a component of the Item will be sourced by the author from elsewhere and different license terms may apply to the component, such as someone else's license or an open source or creative commons license. If so, the component will be identified by the author in the Item's description page or in the Item's downloaded files. The other license will apply to that component instead of this license. This license will apply to the rest of the Item.
For example: A script might contain images licensed under a Creative Commons CCBY license. The CCBY license applies to those specific images. This license applies to the rest of the theme.
12. For some items, a GNU General Public License (GPL) or another open source license applies. The open source license applies in the following ways:
(a) Some Items, even if entirely created by the author, may be partially subject to the open source license: a ësplit license' applies. This means that the open source license applies to an extent that's determined by the open source license terms and the nature of the Item, and this license applies to the rest of the Item.
Split and other open source licensing is relevant for themes and plug-ins for WordPress and other open source platforms. Where split licensing applies, this is noted in the Item's download files: for more information, see this Knowledge Base article
(b) For some Items, the author may have chosen to apply a GPL license to the entire Item. This means that the relevant GPL license will apply to the entire Item instead of this license.
Where an Item is entirely under a GPL license, it will be identified as a GPL item and the license noted in the download files.
13. You can only use the Item for lawful purposes. Also, if an Item contains an image of a person, even if the Item is model-released you can't use it in a way that creates a fake identity, implies personal endorsement of a product by the person, or in a way that is defamatory, obscene or demeaning, or in connection with sensitive subjects.
14. This license applies in conjunction with the Membership Terms for your use of the Highend3d Marketplace. If there is an inconsistency between this license and the Membership Terms, this license will apply to the extent necessary to resolve the inconsistency.
15. This license can be terminated if you breach it. If that happens, you must stop making copies of or distributing the End Product until you remove the Item from it.
16. The author of the Item retains ownership of the Item but grants you the license on these terms. This license is between the author of the Item and you. Highend3d.com / Highend Network / Lumis Network, is not a party to this license or the one giving you the license.
17. Purchaser understands and agrees that certain digital items may contain third party copyrighted or trademarked material that may require additional licensing, permissions, releases, or rights clearance for any non-editorial use. Purchaser and their legal advisors should consider this and obtain such rights, if necessary, before purchasing, downloading or using any Content.
I definitely like the "snake curve" functionality for creating a curve that is conformal to a surface. I would love to have the ability to conform a spiral curve to a surface (aka: loxodrome)
Right now I'm working on new expression-based curve generator and this feature will be included in the next release, but to avoid waiting I can create temporary widget. It might take about 1-2 days.
I definitely would appreciate the opportunity to test out this functionality (as a widget or otherwise). It would save me a TON of time in my latest project.
Please check new version. Video tutorial is provided by link below. Pay attention that quad matrix might go wrong in case of triangles. If you use nurbs, they can be converted into quads. Other try triangle -> quads maya converter.
Great work on the loxodrome curve creator widget! I like that you have both a cylindrical as well as a spherical generation capability.
One suggestion: though I'm not sure if my terminology is correct, it appears as if your script uses the specified points associated with the selected object's LOCAL axis. For example, if I make a loxodrome out of a banana using the Y-axis:
...I get the following curve:
Howver, if I wanted the curve to follow the GLOBAL Y-axis (not the object's LOCAL Y-axis), the upper and lower few loops of the curve would be more parallel to the global Y-axis.
Also, a bug in the cylindrical spript sometimes causes an error. For example, on the banana object:
# Traceback (most recent call last): # File "C:/Users/Andrey/Documents/maya/scripts\PinToCurve\Loxodrome.py", line 59, in createCurve # File "/Applications/Autodesk/maya2017/Maya.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pymel/internal/factories.py", line 2552, in __getattribute__ # return super(newcls, self).__getattribute__(name) # AttributeError: 'Vector' object has no attribute '__getattr__'
Please, check new version. Using __getattr__ has been removed. Error must've been fixed. I've also added using curve-axis mode.
How to use: you'll need 2 curves: axis curve and vector-up curve. Second one is just moved aside copy without intersection nor wrapping around the first curve. Selection sequence: mesh, curve, vector-up curve.
I'm very confused with the latest settings in 1.6.1.1:
"Along Curve" dropdown menu item: I think this is the new capability you mentioned in your last post, but I can't figure out what this does and how to get this to do anything. I'm not sure what the "vector-up" curve you reference is. Do you have a use-case or example where the steps are shown?
"Custom Radius": selecting the "Custom Radius" checkbox merely reverses the direction of the resultant curve (same as "Reverse Direction").
"Force Project": doesn't seem to do anything different in the test cases I've run. What is it intended for?
Also, still can't figure out how create spirals incremented along the global Y-axis, not the local one.
Script already used global axis. In fact in this case local and global ones match. You want axis come along banana and bend where banana does. This way you have to create curve bent thorough banana. It should be hidden in banana body (like joints when you do rig) in viewport. First curve will be our axis.
Then copy and move second one for a little along any axis. It can be outside body and just prevents from unnecessarily rotate. Afterwards select mesh, curve inside and it's copy (in this order) and use along curve projection.
Custom radius and force project are no need right now. But force project makes assure every point will be projected on mesh. Video will be in several hours.
You might also watch tutorial for 1.4 where I use vector-up curve.

Awesome work so far!
