hoping to use this plugin’s alpha-shape function to simplify CAD plans into closed polyline boundaries for easy analysis, but it doesn’t seem to exist on food4rhino and the old grasshopper group page seems to be closed?

Is there other similar optiosn available?
Or any help that can point me to the right direction going from Delaunay edge to a final alpha-shape result?

Thank you!

You could never download milkbox, it is not a plug-in, it was an old grasshopper forum group that people posted scripts in.

Have you checked this?

Alpha Shape 3D

Here is an implementation of 3D alpha shape, it is using 3D DelaunayCell (standard GH component ??). https://doc.cgal.org/latest/Alpha_shapes_3/index.html https://doc.cgal.org/latest/Alpha_shapes_2/index.html I liked a lot the explanation of Alpha Shape of CGAL site “Imagine a huge mass of ice-cream making up the space R3R3 and containing the points as “hard” chocolate pieces. Using one of these sphere-formed ice-cream spoons, we carve out all parts of the ice-cream block we can reach withou…
