Mabey there its a way to make a Soccer ball, Here is my version in hexagon 2

Here is a Fast video of How I maded the ball using some of the spteps from a wings 3d tutorial, The thing is that Hexagon don`t have Inflate Feature

if you know a better way to do the ball more rounded in hexagon please give my the answer

Simply great !
I didn't get all tools you used, but do you think we can make it the same (almost) way with hexagon 1 ?

Anyway to have this on some form of easy download?

justa_newbie · 20th June 2006, 19:34

mayito7777...it's a .swf file that will be located in your
Temporary Internet Files directory once you've viewed the page.

It's 6.42mb and is called test.swf ;)

good luck.

There's also a tut in the 3dxtract collection, it's a Hex 1 tutorial,
all of the 3dxtract issues are available on this site.
It's in the July-August issue of 2005, starts on page 58.

mayito7777 · 22nd June 2006, 22:35

Thanks for that info.

When I chamfer the points, I get triangles instead of pentagons...

bwtr · 25th June 2007, 11:15

Chamfer points(vertices)?

Thomas · 25th June 2007, 12:23

Just to post the result in Amapi 8. The pattern selection, temporary selection and the inflate tool helps a lot!

Mox: can I use your tutorial to create the same for Amapi 8?

ericsnapple · 25th June 2007, 13:09

oops... wrong primitive. A soccer ball! How useful. (no sarcasm)

outa · 17th September 2007, 04:11

Thanks.

Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Using Hex 2.1, when I get to the smoothing portion the main faces turn to circles - using the same tool (from the surfaces modeling tab) and the same range (2).

jismi · 24th May 2008, 15:30

bummer, seems like this tutorial is no longer available.

Just found this as I was trying to figure out how to make a soccerball with hexagon..
Found few for 3ds though..
