Troubleshooting

The Capture component cannot export data and/or snapshots

This problem can be fixed by doing the following two simple steps:

1. In your Rhino's command line, type GrasshopperDeveloperSettings

2. Check the  “Memory load *.GHA assemblies using COFF byte arrays” box and then restart Rhino. You should be good to go!

Then, don't forget to restart Rhino after changing the setting. 

Further debugging tips:

1. You DO need to create a save folder if that folder does not exist beforehand!
2. Don't forget to right-click on the "Mode" parameter of Capture and select "Save Both" to save both the CSV data and snapshots!

The MOO component is not working

If your MOO component in DSE is not working properly, please make sure that you install the necessary extra dependencies that are not shipped with DSE (because of a software licensing conflict). Below is a snapshot of the MOO section in DSE's readme:

To install, download all components, and .dll files and copy them to the Grasshopper Components folder (File -> Special Folders -> Components Folder). Please make sure all files are unblocked and restart Grasshopper.

If you would like to use MOO to run multi-objective optimization, you must also download log4net.dll independently and add it to the Components folder.

The .dll file can be found here: https://logging.apache.org/log4net/download_log4net.cgi Under “Binaries”, click to download log4net-2.0.8-bin-newkey.zip Once this zip file has been downloaded and unzipped, log4net.dll can be found in …log4net-2.0.8-bin-newkey.zip\log4net-2.0.8\bin\net\2.0\release.
