Nice job again on the tute. With regard to the SDS knife tool, I'd love 
to see 3 enhancements.


1. Default to 'selected faces'.

2. When snapping to a point on an edge of the object to be cut, often 
the adjacent face does not get cut. (the line has to cross over  the 
face to be cut). This makes it less useful. The tool should be able to 
'see' cutting edges that start right on the edge of the cut face. 
(tolerence setting?).


3. When using a cutting object with higher detail than the target 
object, the tool should add points to the resultant cut mesh 
corresponding to the cutting object. If the cutting object uses curves, 
maybe there could be a threshold angle in the context bar showing the 
density of points to be added along the curves. This would be super 
helpful in cutting roads into sds topo meshes. PLEASE!

Yo Zaug..
I am happy you tested it out, and came out on top.. with a nice model..
That football render looks coolio..
Could be a cool model for a  Death Star styled Football anim...
Have it kicked hard, from a nice green field, and out into space...landing 
on a Planet with lava grass pitch..and some Alien Robots, starting a 
game!


Looking forward for more of your scripts.. for more of these styled 
footballs..


btw, I watch the worldcup in soccer now, and seeing the pattern of the 
matchballs.. I miss a function in the SDS Knife Tool, to be able to cut a 
SDS into whatever pieces, without the SDS object changes its shape..

Hi Matthias, Frank, Arjo and Robert..

Thank you all, for all of your nice comments, feels good to read them..
Hopefully the tut will be helpful and useful.

I am really happy that the tut finally came to life..
and that you guys liked it, is a bonus.


Beg-inner,
I finally got around to actually working through this tutorial; much
learned about snapping and such; thankz. Additionally, I am now even
more inspired to write a script that makes objects like this; look at
all of the possibilities here:

Hi Brian..

Thanx, that sounds good...

Ok, good that time didn´t matter.. (I guess at times its better late then 
never.)
One problem though is that I have several tuts in my head and/or half 
planned, and some of it already in rough state in html pages..
Hopefully some of it will get finished... especially some Char Anim stuff.. 
but time (maybe long time hehe) will tell..


It will be nice to see your greebled football..!
Maybe a spacescene where some aliens plays soccer in a Greebled spacey 
environment..! =)


Looking forward to see and test your next GreebleZ version..!

Take Care

Stefan,
Nice modeling work, nice tutorial. Think nothing of the time,  that
matters not to us : ) I have read through it and seems easy to follow
will find time to test it after I get the next Real GreebleZ! released.
Can't wait to get a chance to greeble my very own football ; D

cheers,
Zaug

I am really happy that the tut finally came to life..
and that you guys liked it, is a bonus.

I haven´t yet sent it for upload on RS info site.. (I was just happy to have 
completed the tut, and shared it)
But I will send it, I too think most stuff should be collected in one 
place...!


Thanks again to Garry, Frank and Robert for helping me to test it out before 
I released it !

Hi Stefan,

As I have said before very good work on this, I found the tutorial to be 
clear, accurate and very concise in it explaination of how to create what 
is a complex object. Well done and I'm sure this will be useful for a very 
long time to come getting read down the years/

Hey Stefan,

Briljant stuff! Well done.
I know about the effort it takes to make such a tut!

Thanks for sharing :)

Very 
nice tutorial!
But 
did you send it to the Realsoft info site?
I 
think it's nice when all the tutorials stay in a public 
place.

Hi Stef :

 This is an awesome tute ! (the one that I proof-read)

  It's also an excellent example of the kind of power
that does actually lay at the heart of RS3D . Once you
do this tutorial and end up with the Soccer Ball you
will be completely amazed at how many shortcuts and
how many keyboard controls there are for releasing
this awesome modeling power .

All quite useless to the newbie or average user ,
however , prior to this elaborate tutorial .
