Hello every one

I used to work with gmsh but now I have problem with it.

I want to create a 3d mesh in a volume which it has more than 6 faces... (Gmsh's Transfinite algorithm is only available for 5- and 6-face volumes !!!).

Do you Know How can I create a 3d mesh with gmsh in a volume which has more than six face or can you propose me any other open source mesher which can do it this?

Thank you in advance

I have been very satisfied with SALOME (http://www.salome-platform.org/).
But there are many others, like snappyHexMesh, blockMesh, swiftSnap, swiftBlock, ENGRID... Just search around.

Also, this image may help you for the conversion:
