Weaverbird for Rhino 6

I recently installed Rhino 6 but now I can’t install weaverbird,
anyone who knows if weaverbird will get updated soon?
or is there a different way to install the plugin?
Thanks!

It works for me in rhino 6 and grasshopper 1.0. I didn’t reinstall it. What I am sure is that many of the function of weavebird are now in rhinocommon.

Does your gh in rhino 6 have weaverbird tab? I thought wb installs with r6, along with kangaroo.

I have that


Old plugin are working, so the solution could be to install an evaluation version of Rhino 5 and GH0.9 ??

in the previous version that I had, I had installed weaverbird and Kangaroo…
now when I open grasshopper, Kangaroo is still there (just like Lunchbox) but weaverbird isn’t there
and I can’t install it eather when downloading it from http://www.giuliopiacentino.com/weaverbird/

If I go to the component folder of my grasshopper I see the same components in there,
the only difference is that your symbols are showing where mine doesn’t

It is strange I did nothing special and I still have weavebird working in Rhino 6. GHA ow weavebird is here
C:\Program Files (x86)\Weaverbird\Weaverbird.Gh.CommonSdk.gha

Same. Must be that we have r5 still.

Hi all,

The easiest current way to get WB working in Rhino 6 for Windows (without Rhino 5) is:

  • get the new Package Manager to install Weaverbird for you
  • open the definition for Rhino 6, and let the Package Manager do its magic.

Thanks,

Giulio

Thank you!

Thank you Giulio. It worked well.

Hello,
I still have Rhino 5 and weaverbird is not working.
I don’t have the file: %appdata%\Grasshopper\Libraries
How can I install weaverbird?
I see last weaverbird for Rhino 5 installed at C\Programma Files (86)\ weaverbird

Thank you,

This is a folder. You can use File Explorer to find it. Just copy-paste the folder here:



However, because you already have Weaverbird installed, you may as well just run the Rhino Command: _GrasshopperDeveloperSettings in Rhino 6 and add a new line for C:\Program Files (x86)\Weaverbird (please check exact path).

Thank you, the last option worked well!

It is in Grashopper but I do’nt have a tab in Rhino 6. That isn’t possible?i

error:
Unable to load plugin. The plugin does not appear to be compatible with this version of Rhino.

Thanks
