Max model problem in Vectorworks

[nodar1978]

Hi Guys.

I made a 3D model in 3ds max, and gave it to my client, they add some texture to the model, and they say, each polygon gets a texture (so texture is tiled).

Is there anything they can do? I myself have no Vectorworks and also no experience, if you can give me a tips i could forward this to them.

Thank you very much in advance

Perhaps this will help them out? - Applying Textures

 

In this video, we will how to apply textures to objects. Then, we will use the Attribute Mapping tool to adjust the mapping of a texture.

Thank you very much Nicolai.

Will try, and lets see.

I found also this one,from minute 5 he starts talking about the same problem what my client has:

 

many thanks

Perhaps it is the UVW mapping that is wrong then? Not sure if it gets carrier over to vectorworks from max, but you can try to apply UVW map modifiers on your geometry then collapse it down, and see if the exported geometry behaves better when it comes to textures in vectorworks.

I think UVW mapping in max can help, but models are many to do, price i made only for modeling, and quit low. I think they can also apply UVW map in Vectorworks itself. Hopefully. because if i apply UVW map modifiers to each model, it will take a while i think?

Thank you Nicolai

You could perhaps select all your geometry in max and apply a UVW map modifier with box mapping and real world coordinates with them all selected, that should maybe do the trick.

I will try, thank you very much
