Material Preview objects ... ! About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. Material Preview objects ... ! // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by RAYMAN // Jan 28, 2008, 6:01am RAYMAN Total Posts: 1496 I made those today .... but I post them here for grabs. Those are material preview objects like all renderengines have !They are very handy if you post some materials on the forum to show and share ! I made them for all 3 renderoptions. V for Vray ... L for Lightworks and D for realtime. In the zip are all the scene files you need for TS5 and up !

Rayman is sharing his "sphere on a pedestal" with the community. Then if you have any textures you wish to share, you can render that texture on a sphere so people can see what it looks like. :p This thread should probably be moved to the Garage though. :D Post by RAYMAN // Jan 28, 2008, 6:51am RAYMAN Total Posts: 1496 This is a common way of showing textures if you share them ! http://www.kerkythea.net/joomla/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=42&func=select&id=3 or http://www.kerkythea.net/joomla/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=76 or http://mxmgallery.maxwellrender.com/ranking_scripts.php#page=1&mode=0&id=227 Post by kena // Jan 28, 2008, 9:11am kena Total Posts: 2321 Other sites just use a ball - still other's only show the flat image, or a perspective plane or a cube any way you want to do it will work (limited to what your favorite sharepoint site prefers).

The D can be used for Dribble too ! Here and in the Garage I posted this Preview scene for Vray. Just as an example ! Feel free to use it...:)
