Dodecahedron

Big name for a small thing .... a little fun practice. Used SubD for the objects. A little render fun in Twilight.

Nice shot Charles, also loved your recent twisted things work.
I played with dodecahedron in 2016 and again in the past few days being back to my translucent stuff.
Here are my goes.

[tuna1957]

Thanks elmer. Those are some pretty cool twisted up models you have going on. Looked up TopMod, cool bit of software but doesn't run on a Mac it seems.
Pilou, HornOxx thanks gents . Couldn't decide if to post here or in the SubD section and ended up here

[elmer]

Can't find where and when I downloaded it, will have a deeper look tomorrow morning.

Did a quick look at their site and only saw a windows version. Will have to have another look.

[pilou]

I am affraid that is only Windows version of TopMod!

[elmer]

Well, how do you explain my having a Mac version running perfectly well?

I just found the .dmg: TopMod2.223

BUT

TopMod2.223.dmg.zip => The file is too big, maximum allowed size is 5 MiB.

What can I do?

Very cool if that run also on MAC!

You can use wetransfer... till 2 Gigas in free but file(s) living only during a week!
(send to you and post the url here!

PS I have a TopMod 2.5 ! (but it's writed for Windows so suspense!

As seems it's the same google site I suppose there is a little glitch somewhere!

my TopMod is this one

[elmer]

I have downloaded TopMod mac OS without any problems from this page:

[pilou]

...and what is the number of the TopMod version writed inside the prog? (About...)

[elmer]

The one written on the page, 2.223 which is the one that I work with.....and I think the one Tuna need to test.

[pilou]

So the Windows version 2.444 is the nearest of 2.5!
But maybe from 2007 they have made some new prototypes ?
