Display settings 4 different objects 2005-06-28 - By DAVID STUBBS

Hiya Jeff,
Sorry there, I got taken away by the materials editor and got lost for a bit
doing more research. Gheez, alot to keep track of with respect to recording
what a person did to get to an objects state as well - good to have the object
notepad for literal reference if not keeping a separate file.
Materials and other effects used for defining objects are heavy on the resource
as I am finding out with object renders.
Yes, trueSpace is an expansive facilitator towards design objectives. found
some neat perspectives with geometry references. Still working on 'em now but
managed to develop
a sense of clarity for object placement using geometric finess. Positionings,
rotations, sizings and the like. tS adds up on how you want to work with the
tool whatever your method in mind.
Its a craftsmans tool and I'm proud of it and points out many refinements
towards use given objectives. It is very versitile and nice when you get
something right on within the workspace.
Here's to making money with it.

Yes David, the effects of one method are not exclusive of the other, as the
object will render with whatever texture you have applied to it, be it
opaque, translucent, transparent, whatever, while allowing you to model in
any available display mode combination desired. Glad the technique
information is helpful.
As for other helpful tools that come into play with the display modes, the
layers can be used to lock assigned objects from selection while you work
on target objects around them. You can toggle layers from view as needed
for both modeling and rendering. This is a big help in rendering parts of
scenes without interference from other parts and testing out different
configurations around common parts. Differing display modes again help in
comparing different configurations overlaid on each other.
Isn't the flexibility of trueSpace wonderful? :o)
Regards,
Jeff
