4D-ND Modelling Explorer Reviews

is gud *double rotates*

I love this! Projection instead of slicing gets me thinking about 4D in new ways, and I learned new things playing this. Right now modelling is a bit scuffed and janky as there aren't key shortcuts, and extruding happens along axes labeled with "sides" and numbers, and if you click select object after rotating, the axes will not be aligned to your shape. Extrusion should work like this: press e, and drag the mouse left and right to extrude it along the normal. Of course, this program is in its infancy and it is multidimensional, so I don't expect blender levels of ease. I love this program and can't wait to see where it will go, I hope it continues to be updated and have the bugs and jank fixed. There should be a way to select cells (3D shapes) so that I can extrude 3D easier. There should be a way to see the wireframes of slices of objects. I think the most intuitive way to implement this would be setting the dimensions of the object to higher than the dimensions of the space. Then there would be 1 or more sliders for changing your slice position.

This is a great application with an extensive library along with easy and free editing capabilities. In addition to basic editing functions for vertices, edges, and polygons, it is nice to have commands such as Truncate, Extrude, and Spin. Best of all, it is wonderful that these operations are dimension-independent. However, the Dual function does not work as expected in 4 or more dimensions because it swaps polygons and vertices regardless of dimension. (There is no mechanism to hold elements in more than 2 dimensions, so it would be difficult to improve this part.) I would also like to see more features to make it easier to visually distinguish between 3D and ND, such as free perspective effect and fog effect settings (independent of each dimension), stereoscopic display, and preferably a VR version.
