stranger2156 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 Two styles of 3D ball (for one and for two photos / pictures). Only rotation is present in styles. All other movements shown in the demo are configured locally by you. P.S. Style created from Patrick's YouTube tutorial. The link to the lesson is indicated in the description of the demo video.

Rosemary A Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 Thank you Paul. These look like fun. Rosemary Quote
nelson Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 Thanks for your generosity Paul! I like the idea of a spinning globe and can see a use in my presentations. Kieron Quote
Berny Posted February 22, 2021 Report Posted February 22, 2021 Thanks Paul for providing these two styles. Looks very interresant. Greetings from the neighboring place. Quote
gogs Posted February 23, 2021 Report Posted February 23, 2021 Thanks Paul for creating these styles. I hope you don't mind I have translated all the objects into English and re-created the style in English to help understand how it is put together. Gogs Quote
Rosemary A Posted February 23, 2021 Report Posted February 23, 2021 Gogs, would you mind sharing? My Russian and skills are not so good! Where do you get the translation from? Rosemary Quote
stranger2156 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Report Posted February 23, 2021 Rosemary, Kieron, Berny, Gogs thanks for your comments!

Today I started a series of tutorials on my forum on how to create this style, how I did it. The lesson is in Russian, but you can translate the subtitles into your native language in your YouTube player. Perhaps this will also be useful for understanding the whole process. Paul Quote
Xenofex2 Posted February 23, 2021 Report Posted February 23, 2021 Rosemary, If you refer to the Youtube Tutorials, then it is clicking the Settings and toggle around until you find Auto Translate and then select English (or whatever). If it is text, then I would normally use Google Translate ... https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&op=translate I have since found another translate site ... https://www.deepl.com/en/translator George Quote
Rosemary A Posted February 24, 2021 Report Posted February 24, 2021 Thank you George. These links are a great help. Rosemary Quote

tom95521 Posted February 24, 2021 Report Posted February 24, 2021 I don't know if this would be an accurate projection transformation. I have not tested with the styles. https://www.winski.net/globus-projector/simplified/ Tom Quote

I didn't know someone had created rotating spheres almost 7 years ago. I tried to open on my Mac Mini but since the Mac slideshow was created during the 32 bit era it would not run on Big Sur which is 64 bit only. Also Mac apps have to be authorized by Apple now. Maybe the slideshow.dat file can be converted to a slideshow.ptshow file. I will ask Igor. Thanks, Tom Quote

gogs Posted February 25, 2021 Report Posted February 25, 2021 Paul Thank you for the tutorials. I have watched both. Youtube translation was not the best, but good enough to help me follow what you were doing. I particularly wanted to learn how you put on the glare and the shadows and now understand that.
