Hi all, I’m trying to convert a bunch (809) of closed meshes into a single mesh, and the way I’ve discovered that might be possible is by using Cocoon. However, I get this error when I try to use the cocoon component: Solution exception:Unable to cast object of type ‘Grasshopper.Kernel.Types.GH_M…

It asks for charges. A mesh is a mesh, not a charge. Charges are in cocoon. Have you looked at the example files? See charges in image below. [Charge%20Objects]

Yep I just noticed that in a picture on grasshopper3D , and I’ve changed my file accordingly. Only just got Cocoon, so charge is a new term for me. It looks like I’ve got too many curves for Cocoon to handle all at once anyway. So now I’ve got to figure out how to feed it the curves bit by bit?

It looks like I’ve got too many curves for Cocoon to handle all at once anyway. Marching cubes is a notoriously slow algorithm and is only as fast as your computer and processor. Unfortunately, you can’t really break it up unless you plan to manually stitch the parts together afterwards.

It stopped computing, and the error has gone, but it looks like cocoon isn’t doing anything now - no green preview…

What does the output say, again screenshots always help.

Well means something went wrong if no mesh was made. Post your file with the cocoon component not running (Execute to False)
