So I was analyzing the Platonic Solids Asset and I found a horrible bug! Millions of man hours could be lost!

The Solid Type for “Soccer Ball”, better known as a Truncated Icosahedron [mathworld.wolfram.com], isn't a Truncated Icosahedron at all, but simply the reciprocation [mathworld.wolfram.com] of a double frequency Icosahedron!

Horrible I say, horrible!

Yah, I think we had an agency client bring this up the other day…

J.C.

you just save the world from total annihilation

No need to panic everyone….

Mathematica can export to the dxf format, which Houdini can of course read, so all is not lost.

Crisis averted, set us back to Defcon 5.

What the heck … just added:

I thought that platonic solids were solids that wanted to stay ‘just friends’.
