NextPreviousHomeWrapping video around a globe

Hello,

I'm trying to get video to wrap around a globe. I created it as a sphere, 3D in 3D object flat and it didn't work very well trying to place it over a globe. Can anyone help with this? . I'm also still looking for gates that open and close and a knight in armor with a staph for a project for the ministry. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can create a video layer by choosing LAYER > ADD LAYER > ADD VIDEO LAYER...

You can turn it into a sphere by selecting SPHERE with the 1st dropdown listbox below the textbox on the left hand side of the tool window.

Maybe you can find a knight in 3dcadbrowser.com:

Thank you so much! It is possible to animate him and make him all shiny-like, right?

Animating him is not possible, but you can make him shiny by pressing the CHANGE EFFECT... button and selecting CubeMapDDS.fx

I've wrapped the video around the globe and changed the transparency of it so you could still tell that it was a globe and not just a ball of video. The video looks distorted and you can't tell it's a globe under there...

If possible I think it would help if you could post a comment with a link to a YouTube video of the effect you are looking for.
