  • Creating a spinning globe with a grid.

    Posted by Etranger on March 3, 2007 at 10:05 pm

    “create a grid (using “grid” effect)
    apply “CC Sphere” effect
    animate the rotation parameter.
    using the default settings actually gives you
    a pretty nice looking sphere. ”

    I was trying to do the exact same thing above.
    But when I apply grid effect, I only get a half screen of grid.
    So, my globe is also a half globe.
    How can I make a screen-full of grid??

    Please help~~~

    You mean the Render tab in CC Sphere effect?
    I did set it to Full.

    I tried the same thing on AE 6.0 version and i got the full shape.
    But, when I imported the layer made in AE 6.0 which created a sphere right to AE 7.0 version, it showed only the half of the sphere again.

    What could be the problem? Should I try to reinstall AE 7.0???

    Make sure you have Render to Full, not just Inside or Outside

    It’s been awhile since I asked this question.
    Well, I wanted to post the result and about the answer I found.
    I solved the problem by using different version of the after effect.
    I couldn’t get the effect I want in AE7, so tried with AE 6.0 and it worked as fine.

    I still don’t know why this happens.
    but the important thing is that I got what I wanted somehow.
    Thank you for those who tried to help me.
