Alias

Hello Everyone ,
I am trying to understand the file named Hexagonal pattern.dyn shown in Alias | Dynamo Computational Design webinar .


In this file there is a node called Polygon.offset shows Error – custom node defination is not loaded and the node turns red.
Could someone help in fixing this problem.

Hi @siddhardha.mjm

This error means that you do not have a Custom Package installed.
I do not know which Custom Package this is, but maybe try looking in the description of the Webinar :slight_smile:

Hello Daan,
In the webinar description nothing has been mentioned.

Hi @siddhardha.mjm
Do you have access to Alias 2021.2?
We attached some Dynamo/-Player example files that can be executed through the what is new shelf.
There is a Hex pattern. The result is quite similar to the example shown in the video.
If this does not solve your request can you make sure that all your plugins are on the latest update?

Best regards
Kai-Timo
