Here are all the bases, slopes, windows you can use with the dome generator
(either Moray Dll or Exe version)

If you need another one (Base, slope or Window) just send me the functions
(very easy to include) or the drawing (I will have to find a function able
to mimic, your drawing, so it might be not possible !!!)

BTW I'd be very happy if someone would like to host the DLL and the EXE on
his/her page so that everybody knows where to find the latest version TIA

Hi Ph Gibone, you recently wrote in moray.win:

I am already hosting it on the Moray plugin page. Or do you mean
something else? You're welcome to send me the latest versions, which I
will make available there.

That's VERY useful indeed ! Merci beaucoup.
What it needs now is a tower generator to support the dome... But perhaps it's
enough to use the same shape for the base and the sinus carre for the slope.

Hi Lutz

Of course, you host the plugin version of the dome generator, and you will
always recieve the latest version (I don't get much feedback, but I'm adding
some bases and slopes, so a new version will be available within 10 days or
so), but so far nobody hosts the EXE version for non Moray users (they are
wrong but they are :-)))

You are right, the "sinus carre" withe the same base gives you a rather good
approximation of a tower, but I think I'll add the ability to create a prism
upon a base !
Thanks for the idea

Philippe

PS I love your tree macro!

um....I can't find the sinus carre slope in my plugin...it doesn't seem to allow
it. I have everything else on the list, except that.

Right and sorry

This sinus carre is an experimental one (still trying to improve it) and
will be available (as is or better) in the next version within 10 days (with
other new slopes).
