Macro: Automatic walls, ceiling and floor creation

Hey FlyingArchitects!

Working with Rhino on my daily basis I was just getting bored with repeating all basic commands… This is for sure pretty common for many of you, but for the others, I’d like to publish this little and simple string of commands to create exterior walls, floor and ceiling slabs automatically using just inner outline of the wall.

Add this to Your Aliases in Rhino Options:
'_PlanarSrf _SelNone _SelSrf _ExtrudeSrf 200 _SelNone _SelSrf _Delete _SelPolysrf _Copy 0,0,0 0,0,3370 _Enter _SelNone _SelCrv _Offset 500 _Pause _Enter _SelCrv _PlanarSrf _SelNone _SelSrf _ExtrudeSrf 3770 _SelSrf _Delete _Zoom Extents

The switch

Recently, we have decided to limit our support for the store with 3D assets and instead fully focus on what we love to do – creating striking architectural visualizations.

We are excited about this transformation and believe that it will enable us to better showcase and present our capabilities, to show the customers what we really do and provide even greater value to them.

Terrain sculpting tools in UE4 provide a very smooth experience and with addition of alpha brushes you can get pretty realistic detail. However sculpting large-scale believable terrains is a time consuming process and you need a keen eye for how the terrain is formed in the real world.
