6x6x6 center swapper?

[penfold1992]

ok i am looking for an algorithm that swaps these two centers on a 6x6x6

- - □ -
- - - -
- - - □
- - - -

however if i remember right you need to swap 3... so i guess it would be like..
- - □ -
□ - - -
- - - □
- - - -

swapping these 3 on only one face, thanks in advanced i suck with comms

EDIT:

another thing, is it possible to rotate a single center on a 6x6x6 (assuming you need to move around center pieces like shown ^, if so is there an alg for that too?

is it for a super cube?

no i am trying to make patterns with my 6x6x6, it just cheats to look up algorithms of how to get a complete to a solved cube. the problem is usually a few things:
a)pll parity, the pll parity i use moves the centers around, this is no good for patterns when you dont know how to move centers with comms very easy xD
b) single center flips 90 or -90 degrees,this is also a centers issue =(
c)impossible corner flips (can be fixed easily though, but rotates a center)

For the oblique center swapper, (in the front face)
2R U' 3R U' 2L' U 3R' U' 2L U2 2R' (SiGN Notation)

For the PLL parity, here is a commonly known 2-gen algorithm that does not affect any centers:
r2 U2 r' U2 r2 U2 r2 U2 r' U2 r2 U2 (WCA Notation)

worked! ty! but i still have one face that needs to be turned 90 degrees... have a alg for that =D

a d c a
d b b -
- - - c
- - - -

to swap these around (a for a, b for b etc, with -'s meaning irrelivent) would cause my pattern to rotate 90 counter clockwise.

d and c are variations of what i asked for in op so i can do them, but a 3 center cycle of outer corner centers and inner centers are now what i need =D

thanks for helping

One face can be rotated 90 degrees on a 6x6x6 (or any other even cube), but you must also swap two corners as well. It's impossible otherwise.

So you can use a T-Perm, such as R U R' U' R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F', to rotate the top center -90 degrees and others to rotate +90 degrees. From there you can solve back the edges with the pure PLL parity algorithm I gave you above. You will still have 2 corners swapped because there does not exist a pure 2-corner swap (one that doesn't affect any centers cannot exist).

EDIT:
No problem.

is there an alg to cycle like..
□ - - □
- - - -
- - - -
- - - □
i can try to change this alg http://www.randelshofer.ch/rubik/vcube6/A200.01.html but it does some sort of rotation whilst moving some pieces from top to bottom layer.. and its 5am im not going to work it out tonight.... this morning.. lol

Yes. Here's a short one, Fw U r d r' U' r d' r' Fw' (in top face)
Here is a possibly faster one (not that this matters for what you are doing), but it's longer
Lw' U r U' r' U r' F r U' r U r' F' U' Lw (in front face)
