Hi,

today I have tested the bump option. I think it could be a little bit more, but I'm happy to see the bump with GI. This was not possible in AIR.

Hi Micha,

That bump looks nice ... good texture you have !

One thing to note is that Maxwell doesn't have true displacement yet (although the bump looks very good).

From what I've heard, true-displacement is on the works.

Thomas,

Thank you, now I have tested the diffuse with factor 1000 and I get much more bump (and the ground catch much more light from the low sun). The plastic dosn't allow to use the full range, 100 is not 100%. Good to know.

I'm very curious on the real displacement. I can not imagine, how it will work, because the whole fine polygonmesh must stay in the memory. In Renderman it is only a bucket. I have thought, it is inpossible. Could be great for my ground texture (is a place here in the near of my town on the River).

How'd you map the man ? It maps so nice !

[Micha]

The man is a free model from www.lowpolygon3d.com.

The downloaded file is in Max format with bitmaps, but how to convert the UVW from Max into Rhino ?

[Micha]

The man is a polgonmesh and if I apply the separate texture in the diffuse material again, than it match. Very simple, no extra work.

It seems that the UVW is being set in advance, but how to check certain model in rhino ti make sure I map correctly ?

I'm not sure, what you mean. In the case of the man model it was very simple. If you apply the texture to the polgonmesh, than it match.

It has been made by unwrap UVW map by the lowpolygon3d guys, i think. No need to put a UVW map.
Just import the mesh, get the material of the selected object, change it by a maxwell diffuse an assign the same map in it. Done. (Well, this applies to 3dsmax which is the one I use).

[Micha]

It was realy simple here: I import the lowpolgon mesh and assign the texture. I think, this 3D people are realy good professional products.

They are good, but I prefer this models: http://www.axyz-design.com/
Lower polygon count and better look IMO.
