v0.0.11

Update for Blender 4.0 and 4.1. Supported versions are now

• Blender 3.3 (Python 3.10)
• Blender 3.6 (Python 3.10)
• Blender 4.0 (Python 3.11)
• Blender 4.1 (Python 3.11)

New:

• Simple material import, along with image textures. Note: not all UV mappings go correctly yet
• rhino3dm is bundled with the package, no dependency installation magic

Installation:

1. Download the correct version of the package. If you're using Blender 3.3 or 3.6 download the ZIP with py3_10 in the name, for newer download the py3_11 file
   • Do not extract the contents from the file. You have to make sure that your browser doesn't do that automatically (at least Safari is known to do that).
2. Open Blender
3. Go to Edit > Preferences... > Add-ons
4. Click Install...
5. Select the ZIP file to install
6. Install
7. Enable the add-on
8. Import Rhino 3D files
9. Enjoy

Note:

• I have built Linux versions of the add-on, but I can't them to run in Blender due to some exception that is still unclear. Some library conflict happening unfortunately.

import_3dm v0.0.10

• uv coordinates (single mapping channel)
• SubD support from control polygon
• fixes for layers and named views

Several bundled releases. Versions with rhino3dm compiled for Python 3.9 work with Blender 2.93 and 3.0. rhino3dm compiled for Python 3.10 work with Blender 3.1 and 3.2 (daily alpha builds) and later.

Native Apple Silicon builds are suffixed -macos-arm. Again for Blender 2.93 and Blender 3.0 take the version compiled for Python 3.9. For Blender 3.1 and Blender 3.2 and later use the version compiled for Python 3.10.

Note that this package is not yet compatible with Blender 4.0 and later.

Installation note

For unknown reason enabling the add-on right after installing into Blender fails. Instead first restart Blender after installing the add-on, then enable the add-on.

import_3dm v0.0.9

Small change made during live coding stream working on this add-on.

• Don't add duplicate NamedViews collections.

Tested with Blender 2.93.6 and Blender 3.0 (daily test build).

import_3dm v0.0.8

• Improved block instance handling
• Automatically hide instance definition layers
• Clean-up of import properties panel

For Blender 2.93 download the correct file.

Note: the MacOS ZIP archives are created for Mac Intel. These will
work only with the Blender version created for Mac Intel. They
don't work yet on Mac M1 (arm)

Note: The rhino3dm files are not signed yet, so you'll have to
manually remove the com.apple.quarantine flag from the .so
file contained within this bundle. To remove the flag:

1. install the add-on ZIP as per usual through Edit > Preferences > Add-ons
2. take note of the install location for the add-on
3. open a terminal and cd to the rhino3dm folder as indicated by the installation location
4. run sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine _rhino3dm*.so
5. enable the add-on in Blender

import_3dm v0.0.7

• point cloud object support
• PolylineCurve name fix

Windows and Mac add-ons are now separately packaged with rhino3dm bundled.

import_3dm v0.0.6

Changes: 0.0.5...0.0.6

• Support PolyCurves and Arcs
• Group import
• Basic Block support
• Layer collections are now grouped under a top collection called Layers
• Improved render material handling

There are still some issues with the automatic dependency install and update.
