Textured meshes #2306

Open CabbageMS opened 3 days ago

Hi there,

Is there any plan to add support for textured meshes to the program?

Thanks Matt

Not yet, as the focus has been on models for print, which generally don't have texture, but there's no reason why we couldn't support object materials and meshes if users wanted it!

Ok great. Well you can put me down for one user that would want it haha. My use case it that I want to showcase textured meshes of buildings that I have created through LiDaR and Photogrammetry. I've uploaded a non textured version and it works great, it'd just be amazing if I could add texture.

Sounds fantastic! I see you're using STL, which I didn't realise even supported textures. Any chance you can upload an example zip of a model here so I can see how it works and use it to test?

CabbageMS commented 3 days ago

Sure thing. The above is just an STL but my textured files are OBJ with an attached MTL. Unfortunately my model isn't particularly decimated and my smallest model available to me at the moment is 3.3Gb with textures. If I get access to the software again (awaiting license) I'll produce a more web friendly file size

Happy to dropbox them?

Ah, OK, OBJ+MTL I can do, no worries :)
