Mayur Nath (Dec 22 2019 at 06:50):Hi! I'm participating in Google Code-In, my favorite tasks are modelling tasks (one task that I'm interested in is modelling a rotating yin yang in 3D).
Vikramaditya Singh (Dec 22 2019 at 16:21):Hello there. This is Vikramaditya from India. Hope to learn a lot and make some meaningful connections with you all.
Vikramaditya Singh (Dec 22 2019 at 16:37):I am really excited about the 3D designing part here. Open-source seems interesting to experiment with.
Sean (Dec 24 2019 at 07:29):welcome @Hrishikesh Sharjith @Mayur Nath and @Vikramaditya Singh ! Can you tell me what has been the most challenging task so far and which has been the most fun/interesting?
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 11:45):@Sean i am new to 3d designing learning to use brl-cad from online documentation but they aren't very easy to understand ,
the tasks are very interesting as well as challenging at the same time, currently working on "Model a ball and jacks" :)
i have some questions
1>how i can group the objects in brl-cad so that i can move them all together instead of one by one ?
2>what are regions ?
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 13:02):@Karan S Bisht I'm working on the same task currently.
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 13:27):@Thusal Ranawaka this is your first gci?
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 13:54):@Karan S Bisht Yes.
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:15):@Thusal Ranawaka me too :P
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 14:15):@Karan S Bisht How much tasks have you done currently?
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:16):@Thusal Ranawaka i dont know much but i have done more of product testing tasks around 8 and you
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:17):@Thusal Ranawaka and you
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:17):@Thusal Ranawaka do you know how to group object in archer
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 14:18):@Karan S Bisht Don't use archer use mged.
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 14:18):I have done 10 tasks.
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:18):@Thusal Ranawaka how to acces mged
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:19):wow
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:20):@Thusal Ranawaka i downloaded brl-cad but i got archer
Thusal Ranawaka (Dec 25 2019 at 14:34):@Karan S Bisht When you download BRL-CAD you will get archer and mged both.
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:35):@Thusal Ranawaka ok i am tring to install it again is mged is easier
Karan S Bisht (Dec 25 2019 at 14:36):@Thusal Ranawaka on avrage how much time it takes to make a modal in mged

Alex Liu (Dec 29 2019 at 07:53):Hello Everyone!
I am new to BRL-CAD (from GCI) and I'm very excited to learn more about 3-D Modelling and design. For people who are experienced at this, do you have any tips which would help a beginner like me? Thanks!
Sean (Dec 29 2019 at 07:54):welcome @Alex Liu ! biggest tip would be to talk with others as much as possible here on zulip and/or anywhere else, but to communicate
Sean (Dec 29 2019 at 07:54):open source is all about community, so no need to be shy. just patient :)
Alex Liu (Dec 29 2019 at 07:57):@Sean Cool! Thanks and I'll remember to ask around :)
Sean (Jan 01 2020 at 07:34):@Karan S Bisht if you've not done the tutorial tasks yet, you should definitely start there before taking on the modeling tasks.
Faye M (Jan 10 2020 at 06:10):Hey everyone! I'm participating in the GCI and I'm very interested in completing the task titled 'Model a chess scene using matrices (task #1 of 2)'!
Sean (Jan 11 2020 at 05:07):Hi @Faye M and welcome! Please let us know what you think of the chess tutorial.
Mikki Jhuria (Jan 11 2020 at 07:19):BRL-CAD main repository has between a: 0-7000, b: 7001-70000, or c: 70001-100000 commits, Can somebody please help me with this I checked their github page but was unable to figure out the no. of commits.
Sean (Jan 11 2020 at 15:02):@Mikki Jhuria the main repository is not on github. look on the sourceforge project site
