Can I model from a line drawing? // New Users 1  |   Order by default Post by opusrex // Mar 30, 2009, 10:53am opusrex Total Posts: 4 I have several projects I would like to do in TS that I already have schematics for. is their a way to bring them into the modeler to use as a guide? Post by spacekdet // Mar 30, 2009, 11:11am spacekdet Total Posts: 1360 A couple of tutorials on doing this: a little older (using an early version of 7) (http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=1474) and an even older pair of PDF (http://forums.caligari.com/discus/messages/1585/9582.html?) files from tS6 era. While the tools/locations will be a bit different than the tS7.6 layout, the gist of it will be the same. Post by opusrex // Mar 30, 2009, 11:29am opusrex Total Posts: 4 Excellent! I'll give those a try. Post by TomG // Mar 30, 2009, 11:33am TomG Total Posts: 3397 Also see the organics course which uses a background image to model against. Search the forums for the one change that has happened to tS since then, relating to applying the bitmap onto the plane, there's a slight difference to what is shown in the video. http://www.caligari.com/products/trueSpace/ts5/Courses/WorkspaceOrganicModeling1.asp?Cate=Training&Subcate=Fundamental You could just expand that process from one plane to multiple planes if you have different profile views of the object. HTH! Tom
