(...) Amazing work Bram! Loved the paper. Just a quick note: The 3D converter that you link to can take as import Renderman files (RIB) and output PLY files. RIB is one of the supported file formats to E-frontier's Poser software. This allows for (...) (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Yep, that should work. You might get some funky pieces around the edges of the mesh, but most of it should be good. If you want a studs up landscape, use "-q -n" in your commandline. (...) I look forward to some cool results! --Bram (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Hey James, right now there are no inner workings on any of the rendered models. It's up to you to figure out how to build the shape my program spits out. --Bram (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) I used someone else's library to read in the PLY files, so I'm not sure what it prefers. STL is a simpler format, so I wrote that parser myself...and haven't had any problems with it. (...) Try saving as PLY binary from 3D Object Converter. As (...) (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad)

Very cool. So it looks like this was used for a class project (based on the header of the paper). If so, I hope you got an A. The paper itself looks exactly like papers I've looked at in the past that were presented at SIGGraph. It seems to not like (...) (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Those sculptures look great with studs-all-the-way - it looks like you have released a whole new degree of freedom in sculpting! (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad)

(...) Wow! I have been working on some sculptures, scenerys and a huge globe using these studs out building technique lately. And this would be a great addition. I presume I could also use this in making a landscape with the correct 3D triangle (...) (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

Awesome work, Bram. Any chance of getting an MPD or some screenshots of the innards of the cow? James Wilson (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) I sure did!!! Outstanding... Three things I found: - LSculpt seem to prefer "Unix" style PLY (with only CR at the end of text file instead of CR/LF Windows style). I had to convert Stanford bunny (bun_zipper.ply) to be able to use it. - After (...) (18 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.cad)
