Because with standard trueSpace primitive cube is not easy to create different x, y, and z cube resolution, I make an alternative trueSpace primitive plane plugin (with separate x and Y resolution).
So for example if I want to create a primitive cube with:
resolutionX = 8,
resolutionY = 2, and
resolutionZ = 5.
I just create a double side primitive plane with ResolutionX = 8 and ResolutionY=2, then sweep it 5 times for get resolutionZ = 5. :)
Below is screen capture of plane object before sweep action. |

Hey guys, maybe I'm missing something here but don't forget that you can right click any primitives to bring up lots of primitive shape and parameter controls. :) |

your missing something Mike.. try to create a plane with 6 faces x 2 faces ..couldn't be done until Johny's plugin ..[except I could on my machine because I made a plugin called quickgrid..never released] |

Thanks stan, I'm not having the best morning am I? Missing the obvious all over the place! :o
edit: very cool (hot pink) plugin, I like the included link to this discussion too. |

Good Question ;) Purple is come from trueSpace SDK sample code (makeobj code).
Thanks Mike :jumpy:
How can I missed this primitive parameters control:confused: |

Ah, so let me see if I can figure this.
Hmmm...
Being new to 3D modeling I'm wondering what I'd use it for. I downloaded it anyway. :)
heck, I have nightmares about polygons versus edges and vertices, go easy on me. :( |

Thanks for the plugin, but don't you think Caligari should have put this feature in? It's just another simple thing that's missing from a great app (and it's still missing in ts7 >.>). |

Johnny !
Mabe you can make a very useful tool !
I need a PlInn that create spheres without triangles.
The spheres in TS have triangles on the top and bottom ;(
Than i need to create interaktive the degree of it ( i mean in degrees 1° - 359° ) and this please interaktive :)
excuse my poor english. |

This is the kind of thing I love to see! A simple, well organized, COMPLETE interface to a given feature.
Great work johny, very clean and intuitive....

The spheres in TS have triangles on the top and bottom ;(To create sphere without triangle: "Create a polyCube obj(L=W=H) then add subdivision layer to it several times".
Than i need to create interaktive the degree of it ( i mean in degrees 1° - 359° ) and this please interaktive :)I'm affraid this kind of sphere still need triagles at top and buttom ;) (Because Top and Buttom centers are points) this kind of sphere can set by adjust primitive parameters and then manual delete several faces.
@Remnar, @JPSofCA : Thanks for tested it. :) |
