"Boolean without intersecting surfaces? Is it possible? It should cause no geometry changes, only the bubble surface normals should be inverted and bubbles and sphere should be one polysurface. Are my thoughts right?"

Yeah I selected the sphere, then the bubbles, hit boolean by difference
And it was done :D

Amazing heh?

Hi DesuDeus, that's a cool render test model!

The renderings from Octane are looking great!

Hi Micha,

> Boolean without intersecting surfaces? Is it possible?

Yes - in MoI you can boolean away an object that is completely contained inside of another with no intersecting surfaces, to make a solid that has an inner void cavity.

You may not be used to that since it is not possible to do that in Rhino.

You can also use Shell to create that kind of void cavity as well.

Yes I used shell to do the ball, then I cut the Octane logo (the Octane logo is not a simple extrude, there's a scaling rail also)

Then I was able to boolean the bubbles :)
Amazing feature to be able to create watertight solids with void inside !
