Interesting and Useful Tip!

TO CHANGE A BOX INTO A SPHERE IN 3DS MAX!

We were trying in a tutorial for a while to cleanly morph a box into a sphere using the Morpher modifier. This did not work so I gave up until I found a tutorial on it. Turns out that a tutorial really should not have been needed, as the name of the modifier need is SPHERIFY.

How embarrassing. But anyway, its very easy.

It works like a percentage. So you take any object you want, and choose the Spherify modifier, and it is set to 100%, so that it automatically becomes a sphere when you add the modifier. Then you can animate this to go from 0 to 100 so that a box can smoothly change into a sphere.
