Re: Please, I Need Help with Chapter 9 in The Carrara Studio Handbook 2005-06-28 - By pmiinalainen
Back It can be done as follows.
1. Make sure that your reference images are all even squares. Add white or black padding around the image if necessary. Align the images so that same features are at respective places in each images and make sure the scales match. 2. Create 3 planes that intersect at 0,0,0 and are aligned like XY- plane, YZ-plane and XZ-planes. 3. In shader room assign shader with uv mapping with different reference images to each plane. Use ignore normals option. Rotate textures as necessary. 4. Group all the planes and name them reference1. 5. Apply textured mode (allows to see the images) to viewports as necessary. 6. The reference-gizmo is also visible in preview viewport of different modelers. Change the view/camera of preview viewport to top, left etc. as needed.
In vm, you can also use reference images in viewports, but this method has some advantages as it moves, scales, zooms, pans etc. similarly to all other scene items.
