only this things is missing

Oh, okay! This is due to the fact these components have changed in the latest version of Grasshopper that ships with Rhino 6. This is a known inconvenience concerning backwards compatibility of GH 1.0 (or later) files.

The only thing you can do is look at the screenshot of my definition above, which has a quite big resolution, identify all the A-B (Subtraction) and AxB (Multiplication) components, and replace them with the Rhino 5/Grasshopper 0.9 versions.

McNeel could at least have provided a method to save in an older GH format in order to prevent these backwards compatibility issues. I guess this is a good method to get people to upgrade their license.

It is possible to get the old component using some special character like #+. I search and I will update.

Have you found anything on the matter, Laurent? I have an updated, even better version of the above script, but I’m hesitant to upload it, since @gursel-87 won’t be able to use it anyway without the obsolete component fix.

@DavidRutten, is there a way to substitute the A-B (Subtraction) and AxB (Multiplication) components in a GH file, with their obsolete counterparts from Rhino 5! The goal is to make a file saved from the latest Grasshopper compatible with Grasshopper 0.9?

I didn’t find the discussion but if you use in gh the double click then #+ it shows me old component

'Brep Closest Point' GUID mismatch

There is no central list I’m afraid, and this same problem of course also happens on files written on Rhino6 on Windows, or whenever a file was saved using a plugin which is not available. This is very annoying and there’s no solution for the time being. You can always try and replace a new component with an obsolete one whenever someone tells you your file doesn’t open. You can access obsolete components by typing a # into the double-click-pop-up first: [obsoleteaccess] ps. if you were to c…

Rhino BETA - GH 1.0 Aliases tied to old components

in the Rhino 6 Beta version of GH, the Aliases for math components - * / + etc - are tied to the old versions of components: [image]

Hey @gursel-87,

Here’s the latest version of the script that should work with your version of Grasshopper! I’ve substituted the concerned components with their older counterparts.

What’s new:

• the RandomDivision Python component has been optimised and doesn’t care about specific curve domains - from 0 to curve length - anymore
• it also doesn’t matter anymore, whether your lower base curves have the same direction or not
• the foundation and roof sections are now defined by the individual arcs (not the base curves) to prevent intersections with the arc geometry due to curvature issues
• the tunnel that connects all arcs in base curve direction has been fully integrated
• the GH file should be compatible with Rhino 5 now
