Grasshopper 4D Noise

Download

This component creates Perlin and Simplex noise. In the Grasshopper scripting on RhinoCommon here at McNeel Europe we teach to program a component that does this, in C# and Vb.Net. Grasshopper contains a 1D Perlin noise function (similar to sines summations), but this functionality cannot be directly extended to more dimensions.

This component creates Perlin and Simplex noise. In the Grasshopper scripting on RhinoCommon here at McNeel Europe we teach to program a component that does this, in C# and Vb.Net. Grasshopper contains a 1D Perlin noise function (similar to sines summations), but this functionality cannot be directly extended to more dimensions.

This add-on forms smooth 4D Perlin noise and Simlex noise, two very well-known smooth noise functions investigated by Ken Perlin. Inputs are:   – a point pt: the location to sample – a number (double) t: the “location” in time – a scale (number): a multiplier to change the scale of the values passed by pt and t   To install this component:   – download the assembly to your desktop – right click the file and choose “Unblock” (might not be necessary, but please do it) – from the Grasshopper interface, choose File -> Special folders -> Components Folder. – move PerlinSimplexNoise.gha to that folder (ends with “\Libraries”) – restart Rhino. You’ll find the components in the Math tab!   If you want to know more, I suggest to check Simplex noise demystified.
