hi guys,
an interesting topic about SW and SU.
may i know the backward process of exporting SU models to SW please?
i mean not only a wireframe model, but a full model with textures and surface.
(used in SW for further editing if possible)
thanks !

hi dave,
wow, it´s e very nice and helpful pictorial tut.
Thank you very much!
i´ve start learning making model for google earth, so i wasn´t sure about
texture aditting and so on.
now, i´m fighting with size reduction of model (10MB) without success
have a nice day!

hi tig,
thank you for your quick answer.

hi,
save texture in original form is easy, but how to export our texture in it´s edited ( eg. stretched ) form please?
by the way, could you please remind me a plugin, which helps us to export whole textures of our model at once?
thank you very much for your valuable tips!
best of luck!

hi,
i did a quick model of metal fence with authomatic gate, but the photographs ( i was given ) wasn´t good quality, and without proper angles to use it for photomaching.
when i get the final one, i´ll post it.
i´m a bit shy, to show my simple models among unique and amazing artist works around here.
thanks for understanding
best of luck

hi,

thanks for your excellent visualization of the model!
well, because i haven´t found outline setting in SU , i´d
preffer to do as small as possible

in CorelDRAW is easy :

when i use eps files, the lines are smooth, without any distortion.
this is the reason , why i´s taking about it

anyway, do you use special settings or plugin to achieve the best effect?

best of luck!

hi,
i´m sorry to hear you couldn´t get the file, i never got any popups.
i use adblock plus with firefox.
( choose regular download, wait for 50 seconds, and download it )
of course, i never want to make anyone trouble.
the file was over 4MB, so i couldn´t uploaded to the site.
i´ve just purched unused of colors and components, and whole model
reduced size from 4MB to 386KB.
it´s unbelievable!
thanks

hi
thanks for a tip.
a did it, but it wasn´t much better.
i´m sorry we can set dpi in SU.
anyway,it was worth a try.

hi,
when i reduce my model and like to export it into 2D eps file,
the thickness of outline is unbearable / see below
is there any chance to find setting and reduce it into eg. hairline ?

( eps file and jpg file together )

what is the shortest way to export a big model into eps file, without
manual reducing?
if i export model in jpg ( instead of eps ) the lines of model are distorted.

your valuable tips and advices are very appreciated!
