If a ball has a pattern on it, I want the top-down view of the ball to alter accordingly as the ball rotates in the three axes.

It has a bulge effect in the FX package, and it’s super efficient, if you’re worried about that. This is what you can do with the bulge map effect. The API takes a bit getting used to, but it’s the best tweener I’ve ever used.
