Hi Terry-
>>Have you checked the axis of the revsurf for degenerate faces? These are
faces that run from pole to pole and have only 2 vertices. This often occurs
along with vertices that don't _quite_ meet at the poles. That is a common
problem with revsurfs and can really screw up a boolean.
I don't really understand why you cannot use a normal sphere. What do lights
have to do with it?<<
I have been able to use a normal sphere outlined by JKJ. I am having limited
success though with boolean. Sometimes works, but most of the time it does not.
I am still working on getting this done, fortunately with the help of others
here on the Forum. I need to place a light inside the hollowed out sphere to
show the inside surface as the continents "extrude" from the sphere.
Learning a lot more about modelling on this one!
