I have and algorithm that generates seashell geometry in Python. I’d like to rewrite it in three.js and generate many different types of shells on the web. I’ve searched this forum and Stackoverflow and am still not sure. Can Three.js create a complex mesh from a generative point array? I’ve looked…

Another option is to take a look at this topic: Addon. Produces almost infinite many time-varying geometries with functions And contact @hofk :slight_smile:

The addon Addon to create special / extended geometries also shows how to create different more complex geometries. If you have the formulas/algorithm, it’s just a little work to get the result. :slightly_smiling_face: see GitHub hofk (Klaus Hoffmeister) · GitHub from THREEp: examples THREEp [00…

Hello! I’ll give Addon a try and post back as soon as I have a question or something to show. Thanks!

Hello, I am a javascript newbie and I cannot figure out how to start translating my python seashell code into three.js I looked at these amazing examples, but they all seem to be manipulations/squeezing of sphere geometry: https://hofk.de/main/threejs/sandboxthreep/examplesTHREEp%20r90.html My a…

[image] BridgeNess: … seem to be manipulations/squeezing of sphere geometry You’re right, the addon THREEp is based on spherical coordinates. The addon THREEf on cylindrical coordinates. Any geometry can be created. The addons THREEg and THREEi use very different variants. Just look at thi…

Hi! Not the exact port of your python code, just a simple concept of what and how you can do in Three.js: [Shell] P.S. This is not the ultimate solution, but that was the pure fun to get know about how to build a logarithmic spiral :blush:

Oh, this is cool! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I did not know about Codepen.io before this. I was looking for a way to debug javascript as I am new to working with it.
