Hey Zac,

The mapping is a funny one, 3ds Max users like us will find the limited capabilities within Revit very frustrating. It does not seem to matter how you create the geometry as I cannot figure out any logic to the automatically generated mapping at this stage. I agree that applying advanced materials with 3ds Max is the logical solution but I will persevere in Revit for now just to see what the limits are.

Cheers, Dan.

Dan,

Not sure about the process in Revit and I’m sure we’ll discuss this next time we catch up, but looks like the mapping issue is similar to the one you get in Max when you create an object that isn’t orientated straight. Looking at the plans of your deck, you’d need to model this in two separate objects and create them with the edge straight before rotating them into place. It’s not necessary to create them with the orientation if you can either rotate your pivot point for that particular object or apply a UVW Map gizmo of some sort within Revit. Otherwise, better to apply your materials within Max. Discuss this with you on Wednesday when we catch up.

Cheers, Zac

I repaired the “AU – Presentation Handout.pdf” download this morning as it was corrupt, if you have any further problems please let me know.

Also I am currently revising Revit rendering and the entire Revit -> 3dsMax workflow on “The Bach” project (see tab at the top of this website).
