Description:
Quad ball is ideal to sculpt near perfect sphere like shapes with the least amount of polygons.
It is an ideal 24 face replacement compared to using uv sphere which is to dense or smooth subdividing a cube which does not provide sphere like smooth results.

Edited August 18, 2015If anyone knows what the add-on is could you let us know? Or is it the "Add Mesh: Extra Objects" add-on that let's you do Add - Mesh - Round Cube - Sphere maybe? Thanks!

Written October 27, 2015@JoeyBennett - do an overlay with the rounded cube and a perfect circle or this quadball and you will see that your rounded cube still suffers from the typical sub-d subdivision of a cube.

Written September 06, 2015Yep, I prefere to cap cylinders with half of this sphere, when I want to avoid triangles) We wrote a Grid Fill manager (now builded in as Grid fill operator) to close such things, hopes one day it will be able to smoothly close complex organic holes, taking into account the curvature of surface...

Edited October 27, 2015Blender foundation should include this quadball as a default mesh type as well as honestly everything else like this smoothed cube add on do not provide spherical shapes.

Written June 08, 2017Definitely agree regarding the non-spherical subdiv issue. I thought maybe I was just going a little crazy but it seems the algorithm is a tiny bit off - that or there's a reason it doesn't converge to a sphere?

Written December 08, 2025I’m based in the GTA and I only play on sites that are 100% legal here. I checked highflyer casino ontario https://highflyergames.com/ to confirm their license. Once I saw they were fully regulated, I felt comfortable depositing a larger amount. I played high-stakes blackjack. The peace of mind allowed me to focus on strategy rather than worrying about being scammed. I had an amazing shoe where the dealer busted repeatedly. I doubled my bankroll in under an hour. Regulation really does matter for the overall experience; you just play better when you feel safe.

Written December 14, 2025Hi! Ich verbrachte das Wochenende an der Ostsee, aber der Wind war zu stark für den Strand. Ich las einen Blogartikel über Online-Slots und klickte auf ivy bet. Erst fraß der Automat mein Geld schneller als ich schauen konnte. Ich dachte schon, das war ein Fehler. Aber dann kam der Mega-Win in der Bonusrunde. Ich konnte es kaum glauben, aber mein Verlust war Geschichte und ich hatte genug gewonnen, um den Rest des Urlaubs richtig zu genießen. Das war echt Glück.
There is an add-on now with this in the default blender branch, or maybe it is in the branch anyway, as in not an add-on. I don't know, I have too many add ons!
