Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ 3d sphere old code

[startrucky]

Hi there,
as recommended I moved here to make a new post rather than adding to an 6 year old one.
This one: http://latex-community.org/forum/viewto ... 1&start=10
by the way, sorry I don't know how to link properly.

This is a crosspost to http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/ ... oordinates

I got the problem that the code I modified is kinda old so... well I show you:
I want this:

What i want

want.jpg (118.66 KiB) Viewed 6384 times

which works in writeLatex, the problem is it uses estyle which leads to removed latitude and longitude circles using texniccenter and miktex:

without longitude circles

screwed.jpg (74.43 KiB) Viewed 6384 times

Replacing estyle by style, makes the lines appear again, but confused all the nodes:

After change of estyle to style

As far as I now this is a problem of the old code I am using, I would really appreciate some suggestions or somebody who knows the changes of tikz from i guess 1.5 to 3.0+

If somebody could tell me how to place my points again it should work.

Thanks and kind regards
sty

Here is a bloody fix up, by setting all points manually.

This post looks like a crosspost to TeX.sx: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/ ... oordinates

It's always nice to give a link in such cases!

Yeah forgot that sorry, added it above as well just to make sure.
