[REQ] Green Wall

Try using a few see through PNG textures on non - flat surfaces stacked like layers on small distance.

What about the 'z Fighting' with surfaces so close.

Nice trick srx...

here's a few with 3D Tree Maker.

I useually move a face about a 1/8th of an inch to 1/2 and inch and don't have issues with Z fighting.

baz

Gosh, I do. Further away, worse it gets.

Krisidious

are you working on house sized projects or large land sized or small object sized?

pilou

You have also Sketchup Ivy by Pierreden !

First and last, But I will get back to you, have to find a good example...

z fight.jpg

This roof tin is 12mm off the purlins. And at this distance it shows. Closer the z dispersers, for me at large or small tis a dimensional problem when I intend to accurate meas in layout.
I often spend time hiding edges, which solves the problem, (as long as you remember not to unhide when in the group).

Krisidious

Oh yes... I get it anytime I have framing in the model. Something about the close proximity of vertices or something.I hide framing when I want to take a shot.

"I hide framing"

Methinks I will have to stop being lazy with layers

PS: check out some real advanced green walls here, disclaimer: I do stuff for them, but they are leading the field IMHO, really good technology and results.

Very nice... Thanks for the resource.

have you seen this post ?

I saw their components on 3D warehouse... but they were 11 megs a piece.

Baz that isn't Z-fighting it's part of opengl rendering.
An explanation and workarounds can be found here.

Awesome Box... thanks.
