This thing is really getting out of hand dammit
I guess No more posts. Case closed. Apofiozo yellow balls o home.
Please post a tutorial on how you did it!
especially the ball: it’s months I’m trying to model one, yours is so perfect!!!
Looks like people is asking for this!
So
Open blender, press TAB to go to EditMode, delete all vertices (AKEY) (XKEY)
Add a new vertex random, by clicking CTRL-LMB
press NKEY and give to the vertex coordinates x=0,y=0,z=1
deselect all (AKEY) and add a new vertex (CTRL-LMB again)
and give them the coordinates on the first line of
the following table. Repeat this process untill you end the
table row.

Add a last vertex and place it in x=0, y=0, z=-1;
now you must select vertices and create faces, beware, most willl be quadrilateral, but some need to be triangular!
Do this by selecting 3 or 4 neighbouring vertices and pressing FKEY
Next tutorial will explain how to make it yellow.

S68, After several hours using numerical input, I got a shpere, now how do I make Howard Cosell?
<edit> never mind, I found add>>Howard Cosell.
Hmmm his new thread is a fantastic example of post modernism.
that is if you have studied post modernism LOL (i had an exam on it today LOL)
Alltaken
i HATE this thread. i also HATE the cube thread. it was funny at first. its just not anymore.
ok, you are god.
(you shouldn´t have smoothed it, to make it extra newbie!)
So
Open blender, press TAB to go to EditMode, delete all vertices (AKEY) (XKEY)
Add a new vertex random, by clicking CTRL-LMB
press NKEY and give to the vertex coordinates x=0,y=0,z=1
That would be awesome material for the Docboard, don’t you think ?
Personally I don’t like the sphere image. Looks like a newbie image. Can’t understand why people gets so excited about it.
It’s nothing compared to the yellow cube, THAT was breathtaking.
However I rather like crude, violent, exciting but also minimalistic geometry like dots. Problem I had rendering dots, is assigning a material to them and flipping normals, so I expect anxiously your yellow-material tutorial.
Cheers.
malefico.
PS: After re-reading your tute I don’t see the use of the ToSphere button !
Throw me a fr**kin’ bone here.
:o
Honestly…
Who renders spheres?
Stick with cubes, L13
No… really
I don’t think I could take another render like the last one.
I was new to Blender once…
Spend some time in the IRC chat room.
PS
Homework assignment for next Elysiun post.
I’d like to see a UV sphere with metaball dupliverts next time round.
PPS
And don’t forget to texture it with a nice funkadelic texture.
PPPS
…deep breath…sigh
I’ve just begun to use linux… how can I make sphere in linux Blender?
Thats sooo GAWD!..how do I make a sphere? how do I save a pic of it? :o
um… you must press the add>SKELETOR!>DEMENTED4EVER>sphere>ARE YOU SURE???>OK> HOW SURE ARE YOU???>OK
for me its add>sphere>wanna crash>no>windows has performed an illegal operation>ok>blue screen of death>reboot>safemode>reboot>start blender>repeat steps
none of this junk can compete with my avatar… sorry, but its completely amateur when compared… normally im modest, but in this case, the difference is too overwhelming to let go… granted its still the second best sweetest peice of blender art though!!!
i think too this pic is a cheap fake of blengines avatar!
Well,
the community is not less respectable because it is humorous, but i guess humor is disappearing in our modern society
well…
i have an amazing sense of humor.
i can laugh at alm0st anything.
this is just not one of them.
its gotten out of hand.
it is now RETARDED
Yep RETARDED it is.
Skeletor: by writing in this thread you show everyone that you are at least AS retarded as everyone else here…if you think it’s stupid let it go…and it will stop…
