Grasshopper integration
Hi folks!
In a recent thread, I mentioned the possibility of using Grasshopper as a Slate editor for V-Ray materials. Is this integration something ChaosGroup looks for? Or is it something too peculiar to Rhino that it is not worth the effort? (it seems SketchUp and Rhino V-ray plugins are developed together...)
I insist in this topic because Grasshopper adds great flexibility to my Rhino modelling, allowing me to create my own alternatives to 3dsMax plugins like RailClone or Scatter for SketchUp. It would be great to have this flexibility when applying materials to multiple objects, or creating materials with multiple maps and layers.
One example of how Grasshopper integration is becoming essential, is Graphisoft's Archicad. The latest version of it comes with native integration with .3dm files, and a "Live Connection" component for communicating with Rhino and Grasshopper.
I am really curious about the opinion of you guys!
