      Could someone please tell me where can I find this "win32ole.so" file that I need to put into the ruby folder?

    • Reduction Ruby

      Hope this is not a silly question? If I remember correctly? there is a way to pick a single triangular area, or many at one time and increase the triangulation in the mapping/terrain something tutorial...Is there a ruby or way to do the opposite. I thought it might be usefull to take a large imported File (IE a person) And Group seperatly the legs, torso, arms and head and Run each area thru the "Reduce Triangulation". once or twice (Depending on detail required for that area) to get the most reduced polygon count that still looks decent for use in sketchup? This might also work well for cars, etc?

    • RE: Texture On Wrong Side of Object

      Hi Susan,
      I guess me earlier sent reply got lost in space! I do not need to "fix" the model. It is still oriented correctly as when it was fixed last time. The problem is that the exterior faces of the inner sphere aquired a transparent texture some how? By just applying a texture with 100% opasity fixes everything.
      Thanks for looking it over.

    • RE: Texture On Wrong Side of Object

      Thanks Susan,
      But that is a bit over my head...I'll have to try and figure out how to do this. I wish I could post it, but zipped, it is still about 3 MB in size. I tried sampling the image, reverse all faces and then reapply the image to the other side...but the images do not exactly align up with the original locations.
      Thanks for the help.

    • Texture On Wrong Side of Object

      Hi All,
      A while back, someone helped me with this problem...but I forget how to solve it. I made a "special" sky dome. But it was made "backwards". I have the image on the wrong side. If I reverse all faces the clouds cast shadows as planned. But the picture image is now on the opposite side of the surface that I wanted to be. Could someone explain how to do this again!
      Thanks,
      Matte

      Hi Gang,
      Here is a desk set we made a while back for an office in Hawaii. It's basic, but has four units grouped togather.
