Solid projection for procedural textures

[konstantin_chaos]

konstantin_chaos Unfortunatly the Object Space isn't supported at Rhino, only we get World Space always. Is there a chance to get the Object Space working?
Workaround: tested and found – the object space works for objects within Rhino blocks.

The reason for this lies in the way Rhino handles objects.
When you move something in Rhino it is actually not transformed.
Instead the mesh vertexes and faces are relocated and the mesh is virtually recreated with its origin at 0,0,0 and its rotation reset.
After that V-Ray can not know how it was transformed.
This is unlike other 3D apps where objects are created with a certain transform and any further transformations are stored separately.

Block transformations on the other hand are available for us when parsing the scene and that is the reason why you see different behavior with them.

So, could you ask the McNeel team for a solution on her side? It would be good for any render plugin to get a solid solution for the next years.

Keep in mind that this is a huge change for Rhino and I doubt anyone would agree to do it unless they have another reason to do so.
