Where can I find a model of a dodecahedron or tutorial on how to make one myself. I neen to model DaVinci's regular dodecahedron as illustrated in Luca Pacioli's De divina proportione. Thanks,

FYI I have looked at "market place" search tool at this site and find some primitives items that include dodecahdra but they are for vue 4 (?) nothing for Bryce... Thanks

There is a standard dodecahedron primitive in Wings3D...freeware. You could export from there and into Bryce.

cut-n-paste the above into a new txt file. change the extension to obj, and import that file. Too lazy to figure out how to upload.

What do you know... It works!

xenic101 ( ) posted Mon, 06 December 2004 at 9:40 PM

Um, just exported the dodecahedron from wings, opened the obj with notepad, cut-n-pasted into the forum. Not everyone has wings on hand and I was in a helpful mood. It does seem to need unsmoothed a little. I almost reposted a uv-mapped version but it was late and I messed up the first map. You people are odd.

Thank you very much but when I follow your instructions I get an error. The error is invalid target. C

xenic101 ( ) posted Tue, 07 December 2004 at 1:01 AM

Are you useing notepad? Many of the 'higher' wordprocessors add symbols and whatnot that will mess up the file.

Sorry, maybe I didn't understand the joke here ;P If the question is simply where find a dodeca, there is the default bryce one since version 3 (or above, but I can't remember)

calculusfx ( ) posted Tue, 07 December 2004 at 10:31 PM

zakalwe, that is not exactly what I mean refer to DaVinci's regular dodecahedron as illustrated in Luca Pacioli's De divina proportione. It will be a start but it looks like I'll have some work to do. Currently I'm using bryce 3d and there is no dodeca in the objects library (default) I should try the tool kit and see if there is one in there. Thanks everyone for your input.

TheBryster ( ) posted Wed, 08 December 2004 at 7:24 AM

I'm sure someone could isolate and post the obp to you. If they don't let me know...........(sorry, very busy atm)
