Hi,
The archiect give me the paper drawing. I started from drawing on the AutoCAD
and import it to TrueSpace. In AutoCAD, you can maker layer and apply material
to each layers in TrueSpace. It is not hard to apply the materials to the DXF.
The project I was or am doing only need 30 min to apply the materials. Making
the paths for walking through takes longer. I already finished around 10000
frames of animation, but I accidently erased the hard drive while trying to
install OS2. Fortunately, the 10000 frames is on other hard drive, but I lost
the animation paths and materials.
I can also render any sence on the building and print it on my Canon Bubble jet
600 with driver from SuperPrint. It gave me very nice print out. I will upload
one frame to the forum, if i figure it out how to do it.
This has been alot of fun for me. Specially the building is designed by a
famous Japanese architect. I am waiting for my 3D studio shipping in next
week. Maybe I will find something more interesting than TrueSpace. I like TS
alot , but the time redering in ray tracing takes a little too long.
Hope I answered your question:)
Ken
