Author Topic: Polycubes and Dicecubes - Print cubes with 4 or 6 different sides (Read 3231 times)

Peejster · February 21, 2014, 09:15:28 AM

Original topic is too old, so here's a repost, as I just finished making a six-sided version.

These are print cubes that can have four or six textures applied to their sides. The drop in resolution is entirely unavoidable.

I've created some example prints that can be used with each. They're packaged inside the prints this time.
Print categories for these bricks are "Print_Polycube" and "Print_Dicecube".

These are being hosted from my personal website. Feel free to re-host or make modifications. Delete Brick_Polycubes if you already have it.

Oh, that's because I labeled them as "bricks" instead of "prints". Yeah, link is fixed.

Remember seeing these when they were first released. Still love them.

Probably
If I knew the #x# thing (like 1x1 prints for example) for these I could probably make a few.

How about Blockland cubes with studs on top, lines on side and bottom side on the bottom but for prints.

Really nice, please make a 2x2 verison. I could then make some really nice ammo box prints C:

Print_Polycube:

~Both taken directly from example prints~

OK, sure. For simplicity, I've made it so they use the Polycube print category instead of getting their own. So, the "front" texture will appear on two different sides.
Also, the Dicecubes have been modified so that the texture and brick layout both make more sense. In particular, "left" and "right" were inverted on the dice and textures both. So, you might have to remake some of your prints. The example print has also been modified to match this change.
