hi tig,
thanks for a quick answer and amazing tut.
i didn´t think a large amount of circles can cause any "nausea" to this excellent problem
nevermind, next time i have to be careful with that.
have a nice weekend, and hope like the tiger !

hi guys,
i´ve a slightly different question, but it´s about the "holes" too ( i don´t want to make another new useless thread )
it´actually talking about perforated plates.
i´m newly owner of 1001bit pro plugin, but found it can do just square holes.
when i make them an old fashioned way like here, sketchup collapses many times
do you know why, because my laptop works like a charm?
your valuable tips are very appreciated.
cheers!

hi driven,
thanks for your tip, it´s a cool plugin !
it looks great , but videos doesn´t work.
i contacted kirill2008, hope to get some good news soon
cheers !

hi,
i wonder how many techniques are available, when i need to wrap face around non-flat surface/faceeg. a mug?

i usually import dxf file,then make face (make faces 1.4) and try to stick to the surface of an object.

i know just projection or intersect faces techniques ( design is often much larger/longer than sample below )

is there any other faster way to eg around an object( even non flat and bumpy surface ) please?

thanks for your valuable tips !

just a couple of thoughts here.

there is another harder question, how to put graphic to a outer ball, then to project to inner ball.

good job, well done !

hope to be a good source of wisdom like you someday

hi,

a prety fast help, thanks, the tut is great !

i´m very thankful, i´ve spent many valuable moments here with you guys

so, when i return to previous topic, the best think is to change resolution of size of the model, then reduce it in PS.

wonderful !

hi,
you´re right. to export bigger model, then resize in PS, but when i need transparent backgroung?
do you thing PS fix everything?
thanks!
note: just making a texture of bulding (another project) photos were made from many places around.
when i need to make panorama pic to wrap the model, i´ve to fix/strech photos for nice result.
do you think PS is the best, or is there any other tools/programs, which can fix distortions too.
your valuable tips are very appreciated

hi,
the plugin works like a charm, but my model is a bit "hairy"

round one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVYYdWYRqrg
flat surface http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEg6tHWNXb4&feature=relmfu

i need to move a bit replace my texture at the entrance of the building / see picture

i wonder if there is an option how to save model in PNG without background or have to edit in other corelraw/photohop program

wow, that´s an incredible job!
lightup is such a powerful tool .
