How to make this kinda o-grid?

faisal_durr · July 1, 2011, 06:23

Hello guys, I am trying to build a room model. Till now i have been using square openings but im now supposed to use circular openings and thus i have to use 0-grids now. I have been advised to use a specific sort of o-grid. The picture of which is shown below. I want to create the same sort of o-grid for my model but cant seem to create it in that manner. Can you please help me by telling me exactly how to create the following type of o-grid structure? Thanks.

This picture shows the mesh i am supposed to have for my openings...

These are the views of the blocks without the mesh enabled of the kind of 0-grid i should use.

I have tried to mimic the mesh set up and have reached upto these stages...

I dont know what im doing wrong. If i tick the "around block" in the split block>o-grid block panel i dont get the round kinda mesh around the openings. Rather the blocks around the openings are distorted in another fashion. Help me please

You mean associating the rectangular edges to the circular curves of the openings? Nope have not done that buddy.... is that what im doing wrong?

Yes you need to make the appropriate associations and I see that your model has three concentric circles so you may want to have three o grids all together to make a proper capture
