Re: cannot edit first post in a thread

Strange, I edited mine just fine the other day. (Although it seems I made the thread in the wrong topic). There's an edit button above the header.

Just a plug-in suggestion

Just discovered that twinmotion is free to use (with a 2k export limitation) and runs surprisingly well on a modest PC. Possibilities seem endless, from the huge high-quality model and texture library to terrain sculpting and real-time rendering, and very quick image export. There's only one catch ...

Re: Weird 3D Artifacts

I fixed it by reinstalling my radeon software, with a factory reset. Downgrading to the 22.5.1 version.

Re: Weird 3D Artifacts

Just happened to me too. I had no issues the other day and made no driver or windows update since (did install a new firewall). Only installed a few sweethome3d plugins the last time, but all worked just fine then.

The 3d view window is grey now when opening the program, with no model. Then ...

Re: Translucent

Not sure how that helps, but of course. The windows on the left side have the same green tint, but the opacity is unedited. The ones in the center of the picture have a d 0.99. Doesn't seem to make a change except showing off more of the color tint. Also, the opacity is obvious in the 3d view ...

Re: Translucent

Strange, the opacity (0.99) is obvious in the 3d viewer, but it seems to make little to no difference when taking a picture with a 30% light source behind it. Still a clear see-through glass.

Re: Translucent

Thanks, both worked like a charm. Kinda embarrassed i didn't think of the second solution myself.
I'll have to tackle the light emitting model next, it should prove very useful.

Re: Translucent

Yeah, the explanation in the v7.0 thread is a little too esoteric for me.
How about editing (transparency to translucent) an already made OBJ, with no MTL file to start with?
I see the free SketchUp doesn't export in OBJ anymore, including the offline version.

Translucent

Is it possible to have a light-emitting surface?
Not a punctiform source but something uniform that can be sized like any other object/texture. More or less resembling a window with translucent glass.
Or even without the light source, is it possible to make a translucent surface and control its ...
