Re: Accidental sphere in Xara 3d
Seagull, my method is a little bit different.
First of all, select “Design Options” from the right hand side of the panel, then, click “Design Picker” which will lead you to the folder of Designs. Choose a sample of Ballx1.X3D. That is it.
With regard to settings, I use 40 for “Frames per cycles” and 15 for “Frames per second”. The user defined size was set to Width: 210, Height: 200, Color: 256.
By the way, 3D6 can make two balls at the same time.

Morning Ren. That's the whole trouble. 3D6 makes two balls, no design for creating only one. So, how do you make one ball with two was the problem, and that is why I started this thread. If you follow the instructions you will find that you can make one ball out of two, now the problem for most of us is how to make two dollars out of one, sorry but my instructions won't help in reverse.:D.....frank
p.s. Your design always seem to turn slower than mine and your images seem to be cleaner and more defined but maybe this is because I haven't saved enough to be able to really confirm this, but yours always seem better than mine.

Just a quick note to find out the reason.
Seagull, it may have something to do with the display car. I am using Nvidia 6600 chipset.
The following is another piece of work, a colored ball. The settings are the same as mentioned earlier.

Re: Accidental sphere in Xara 3d
Hi Frank
No Matter what I do I can't seem to get the same roundness to the sphere as you do.
Is it possible to post the 3D6 file to the site ?

Re: Accidental sphere in Xara 3d
Hello David
I'm posting a big bunch (and I apologize for the size) of gifs so you can see what I did step by step, actually step by step by step since there are all of three, the fourth being going into design and including a jpg texture on the board. If this doesn't help, I'll post the 3d file. Remember, this was a fluke, not intelligence that accidentaly found this. Let us know how it goes......frank

Re: Accidental sphere in Xara 3d
I have no idea how I managed this. Just playing around with objects, extrusions, textures and suddenly I had a spinning earth!
Re: Accidental sphere in Xara 3d
I see you're obviously having fun with your new version of Xara3D :D
See what you've been missing! More power to your mouse!
