I would like to close the bottom of my shape with a plane, how do I go about doing that? And is it possible to smoothen out the edges connecting the plane and my object too?
Top View
Bottom View
You need to add a point in the middle of the plane geometry and close it with triangles or rectangles (based on your standard shape). Please refer to this answer which explains the solution to a similar situation: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/1754/how-to-fill-a-hole-in-face

I have a Poliigon Texture Demo c4d file. The file includes a sphere with a texture which renders correctly (bottom sphere in image). However when I create a sphere (top sphere in image), convert it to a polygonal object and apply the same texture it is being stretched horizontally.
I can fix this by changing the "Length U" setting to 50% in the Texture Tag but I notice that the sphere below does not need this modification so I was wondering how to convert the top sphere to a polygonal object the same way the bottom sphere is.
Cinema 4d Example
I have included a screengrab. The only notable difference is that the sphere below has additional diagonal division.
I am quite new to 3D so hope this all makes sense.
I think you only need to change the Sphere's Type, to a triangular type, like the sphere at the bottom.

I'm beginner at 3D modelling and I'm making an office chair. Now I'm stuck at wheel area as I need a sloped edge cylinder for the base of the wheel.
Concept: The wheel is attached to a cylindrical base which is attached to the foot of the chair.
Current Situation: I draw foot of chair, made a circle on it and transformed into a cylinder. The end edge of the cylinder has no Face and I want to extrude the cylinder along one edge which will make a sloped area on the open side of area. That should look like this :
But I tried manythings to do, but failed. It's obvious as I said I'm beginner. Please help me do to this.
Note: I'm using blender 2.78
The shear tool will move your mesh the way you want. It doesn't create the geometry so first extrude E and then shear ⎈ Ctrl⎇ Alt⇧ ShiftS the extruded section. Also note that the shear tool always uses the viewport axis, so switch to front or side view to keep the movement in line with your object.
You could also extrude past the point you want and use the knife or bisect tool to cut the geometry at the angle you want.
I found the answer. This doesn't need complex techniques. I just did
Extrude > Merge > At the First.
That's it. Now I got the shape I wanted.
I'm trying to make a round eye in my object by selecting a face, pressing e, dragging it into the face a little bit and I'm trying to make that eye round instead of square. How can I do this?
There is "To Sphere" AltShiftS available under Mesh->Transform. As the name suggests it adds a spherical influence, if the selected verts lay flat on a plane the result is circular.
Another option is an addon called LoopTools. Enable it and you have some extra options in the specials menu (W) which includes Circle, which will give a circular influence to the selected vertices.
I have a problem about cocos2d tile maps.
My aim is to make a circular line of sight that when player moves around, it must only see its around in circle but not see the rest. I have tried many things and successed it in rectangular area but I couldn't succeed it in circular area.
I am waiting for your answers.
Thanks for your help.
If you help me immidiately, I will appreciate.
Use rectangular area and add an alpha mask with round gradient as a child of the player to make the visible part round.
E.g.
with fading
without fading
Edit.
The green layer is the fog. Only a square of it is uncovered ("I have tried many things and successed it in rectangular area"). The red layer is the circular vision map. It covers some of the visible squares and so the user sees uncovered circle.
I'm trying to write a fairly simple animation using Core Animation to simulate a book cover being opened. The book cover is an image, and I'm applying the animations to its layer object.
As well as animating a rotation around the y axis (The the anchorPoint property set of the left of the screen), I need to scale the right hand edge of the image up so it appears to "get closer" to the user and create the illusion of depth. Flipboard, for example, does this scaling really well.
I can't find any way of scaling an image like this, so only one edge is scaled and the image ends up nonrectangular.
All help appreciated with this one!
CoreAnimation, by default, "flattens" its 3D hierarchy into a 2D world at z=0. This causes perspective and the like to not work properly. You need to host your layer in a CATransformLayer, which will render its sublayers as a true 3D layer hierarchy.
