Material test scene

[mgibeault]

Since the Material editor is no longer of much use, is there a standard Rhino scene to test materials into?

Thanks,

The material editor is definitely necessary. There's no way to make complex V-Ray materials without it!

You are talking about the stand alone material editor,that was working with the previous version ?I don't think it still exist,but since the material editor is now much more complex I don't think it would be useful .And no there is no standard scene that I know of.

ah yes, the material studio. It may get a new breath of life some day, we are more concerned with VfR and VfS development at the moment though.

[mgibeault]

For the time being, couldn't the geometry and settings used in the Material studio be sourced or extracted and saved as a Rhino file we could use as a template?
Thanks,

As far as I'm aware, we don't have that scene file in a format that is compatible with Rhino.

[mgibeault]

What format is it? I have access to 3ds Max and can replicate it for Rhino.

Thanks,

Here is the scene that I use to create the materials. It has the old ASGVIS logo

Could you send it at my e-mail? marc.gibeault at aero.bombardier.com

the actual preview scene is in a proprietary format that won't import in to a 3d modeling application.

Hi
Just to be sure. Are you looking for the scene used in the attached image?

[dkendig]

yeah, that's the one we used in the material studio, do you have it in rhino format?

[fpedrogo]

Hi Devin
Yes, the zip file contain the scene file in Rhino format.

[dkendig]

Oh, I guess I missed that. Which zip file has it? Is it in the downloads section?
