Photoshop :: 3D Sphere In Extended CS6

Jul 10, 2012

Here is a still from what will be a trade show video. The problem is that the longitudinal lines are a bit wobbly, especially near the poles, for instance in the top right quadrant, between the orange and yellow earplugs. [URL]..........
 
I created a new 3D object with the preset sphere from a layer that is a grid of my client's products.  As the sphere rotates, the black edges of the grid straighten out as they come around to the front, and then get wobbly again as they approach the edge of the sphere. At first, I made the black part of the grid from a bitmap mask (which had caused a problem in an earlier 3D file) but no, same problem when I made the grid from a vector mask.
 
Pretty sure it is not a hardware issue as I have gone thru all the optimization steps for using the Mercury Graphics Engine on my quad-core iMac 27" with a supported video card, and the latest version of OSX.

Photoshop :: Extended CS5 To Extended CS6 Cloud Install - How To Migrate Plugins

Aug 30, 2012

Currently I am running PhotoShop extended CS5, 64bit. in which i have my fovorite plugins (Topaz, Nik and OneOne) running perfectly.
 
I have upgraded to Adobe Creative Cloud and installed PhotoShop extended CS6 using Adobe Application Manager as recommended. It didn't ask me if I wanted to upgrade or do a new install for PhotoShop. So now I CS6 running with no Plug-ins. I need my plugins! LOL.
 
I tried pointing to additional plugins in the CS6 preference to the CS5 plugin folder. Upon Launch it gave me a whole slew of error messages saying something cant load or launch C+ runtime error or what not. It does open up, but it only gives access to Nik and Topaz. OnOne doesn't show up under filters or extensions.
 
So, what are my options?
 
Just copy the plugins from CS5 to CS6?
 
I dont't want to reinstall all the plugins to CS6 if I don't have to as I've auto updated them over time to current versions online, so only have installation files for my original purchases.

Photoshop :: Sphere Reflection?

Jul 10, 2003

I'm trying to make a marble ball that looks wet, thus a reflection. I can pretty much get the ball (albeit not extremely realistic) and some what of a reflection idea going on after looking at some reflection tuts, but the reflection just doesn't seem to wrap right or something, it just seems...unnatural.

I believe I found this in CS2, but now I can not find it in CS3. Wasn't there a sphere tool that allowed you to wrap a bitmap image on a spherical or cylindrical curve, like a soda can or sports helmet?

Photoshop :: How Do You Wrap Text On A Sphere?

Nov 14, 2008

I want to put text on a Christmas ornament. How can I make it look like it's actually printed on the 3-d sphere? I've tried warp text, but that doesn't look right either. Is there a way to do it? Is there some sort of text path tool and then I can apply warp?

I'm using CS2.

Photoshop :: Creating 3D Sphere With (mesh Preset) In CS6 Is Jagged?

May 29, 2012

I'm attempting to create a sphere by using the "mesh preset" under the "new mesh from layer" menu item. When I do this, the sphere appears jagged or faceted -- even after rendering. If, however, I make the same sphere using "depth map to", it is smooth. I do not have this issue in CS5.

Photoshop :: Creating Bevel With Custom Specular (sphere Map) Art Text 2 Cool Feature?

Oct 12, 2011

I've been a faithful photoshop user for quite some time now, but today I got wickedly impressed by this tiny software that features this awesome specular highlighting technique that photoshop does not do by default.This software is called "Art Text 2"H! I had prepared some image links but cause I'm so new I can't put them.[URL]...

As you can see, the bevel reflection is created using the specular information of the "sphere map". Furthermore the program allows you to change the sphere map highlights interactively, and even choose your own image sphere maps. This is just amazing, isn't it? Creating realistic metal text or things is just super easy with this. I think everyone of us has had problems doing realistic metal effects on photoshop, am I wrong?

In Photoshop you have the "bevel and emboss" style feature, and it works pretty well, but it isn't made for say: reflecting a window on the beveled text.Sphere maps are commonly used in gaming to simulate realistic reflection of 3d objects, and I can think of a million ways of using this technique on 2d. way of simulating this sphere map reflection on layers on Photoshop?

3ds Max :: Deforming A Sphere Without Reactor

Sep 23, 2011

We no longer have Reactor Softbody, so if I wanted a sphere to be dropped on to a table how do I get it to squash and deform as it hits the table (other than doing it manually with a FFD etc)

MassFX would do the basics of that but I can't see how it could deform the mesh?

3ds Max :: Symmetry Modifier On Sphere?

Dec 22, 2012

What is the proper way to apply the symmetry modifier to a sphere ? I created this custom android bot. After I create a sphere with hemisphere I create the eye and split the sphere in two then zero it out on the grid. Then I apply the modifier. When I do that it does not project the other half of the sphere even when it's on flip and x axis. The mirror part is kind of on the back side of the sphere. What happens is I have to rotate the mirror part to line it up and up the thresh hold a lot to get the back side to connect.

3ds Max :: Sphere Looks Broken In Viewport

Nov 18, 2011

I am getting a weird shading artifact in my viewports when I create primitives with curved surfaces, such as a sphere or a torus. It doesn't show up when making boxes.Here is a picture showing what I mean.

All I have done is clicked and dragged to create a sphere primitive. I have then moved it to different positions on the viewport to show how the artifact changes when its position is changed.

This happens in all viewports, in both "Shaded" and "Realistic" settings.

Illustrator :: How To Make 3D Cut Sphere

Nov 19, 2013

So I'm a novice at making 3D objects in Illustrator. I'm attempting to make a cut sphere in Illustrator. I'm not sure if what I want to achieve is best done through pen tool and gradients or 3D revolve. Here are some screenshots of my attemps thus far:
 
This one is with the pen tool:
 
This is as far as I got with the 3D Revolve:

I'm trying to have a sphere within a sphere, with the outer sphere being cut revealing some of the inner sphere. The outer sphere will have a lower opacity.

Illustrator :: Creating A 3D Sphere In AI

Feb 13, 2013

I'm having a challeng with creating the look I want using 3D Revolve. The sphere is part of a logo, and needs to essentially match the color of part of the logo, but I also want it to have a smooth 3D quality. To start, here's the color I want to be predominant in the sphere: Here's what I've come up with thus far:This is as close as I've been able to get to the original color, but there's no gradation between the shades. Here are the 3D Revolve settings:
 
Surface: Plastic Shading
Light Intensity: 50%
Ambient Light: 70%
Highlight Intensity: 95%
Highlight Size: 95%
Blend Steps: 256
Shading Color: Black
 
And here's another experiment: This has the blend from dark to light I'm looking for, but the base color has become much more purple, and doesn't really match the original. Here are the settings for this version:
 
Surface: Plastic Shading
Light Intensity: 40%
Ambient Light: 0%
Highlight Intensity: 100%
Highlight Size: 100%
Blend Steps: 50
Shading Color: None
 
I've played around with diffuse shading, but haven't even come as close as these two samples. So basically, what I'm looking for is the base color of the first sample (maybe a little lighter), with the blend from dark to light of the second.

AutoCAD .NET :: Finding A Sphere In Database

Mar 27, 2013

As part of the automation requirements we are working on (through the .NET interface), we would like to find out whether a given drawing contains a sphere and if it does we would like to know its properties. We are doing something like this, to loop through the database and am able to get all Solid3d type of objects.

What I would like to know, if a given solid3d object is a sphere or otherwise. The code snippet is pasted here for reference:

bool bContainsSphere = false;            
foreach (ObjectId Id in Ids)
{
  DBObject oObject = ts.GetObject(Id, OpenMode.ForRead);                  
  if (oObject.GetType().Name == "Solid3d")

3ds Max :: Bend Modifier / Plane To Sphere

Aug 8, 2013

I'd like to use the bend modifier to transform a square plane into a sphere with a diameter equal to the side length of the original plane (to reproduce the approach for UV mapping a sphere described here).
 
I've been able to bend a vertical, square plane into something very close to a sphere using two bend modifiers (the first bending the x axis by 180 degrees with a direction of 0 degrees and the second bending the y axis by 360 degrees with a direction of 90 degrees). It's necessary to move the center of the second bend modifier to obtain a sphere.
 
However, there are two problems with the result: the diameter of the sphere is not equal to the side length of the initial plane and it's difficult to position the center of the second bend modifier such that the sphere doesn't have holes at its poles.
 
The first problem occurs because (as far as I can tell) the bend modifier assigns its gizmo an initial scaling such that the object to which the bend modifier is being applyed is bent but not stretched. This is reasonable default behaviour and applying an FFD 2x2x2 modifier after the first bend modifier allows the (now bent) plane to be scaled such that the height of the sphere that ultimately results equals the side length of the initial plane. However, when the second bend modifier is applied, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to precisely position its center such that the sphere's width equals its height (the next step would be to weld the vertices at the two poles). This is also the cause of the second problem since positioning the bend modifier's center correctly would also remove the holes at the poles.I've attached a max file (in a zip file) for reference (also see the left-to-right sequence in the image below):

- Plane001 is the initial square plane
- Plane002 is after the first bend modifier has been applied
- Plane003 is after adjustments have been made with the FFD modifier
- Plane004 is after the second bend modifier has been applied
- Plane005 is after the center of the second bend modifier has been adjusted.
