Title: Display correct materials in viewport? [RC-Pro]
Post by: JPJAPERS on November 13, 2020, 04:56:27 PM
Im using railclone to build paving from 3d scanned bricks. Each model is different and has its own material.
Ive assigned a multisub to the geometry and it renders fine. However there seems to be no way that i can see the object distribution of the different colors in the viewport?
Is there a way i can change this? Im trying to build some patterns but without constantly interactive rendering i cant do this easily.

Thanks

P.S. Railclone pro user on a floating license in my workplace. The restriction on the help forums for commercial users using floating licenses is really irritating.

Check display mode and make sure it is set to Mesh or in some cases Boxes, Quick Mesh still has problems with maps.

I was hoping that wouldnt be the only way as the objects im using are scanned geometry and are quite high poly so viewport performance slows to a crawl. It works with quick mesh and mesh but not boxes for me.

Hi

first of all You can create *PRO* level forum accounts from the Panel > Forum Accounts (https://secure.itoosoft.com/userpanel/forum_profile), or link to existing ones. A maximum of 3 forum accounts is permitted.
If you require more or need assistance, please contact us (https://www.itoosoft.com/contact.php).

Anyway, I would advice adding ProPptimizer modifier on Your segments with KeepTextures option in viewport only mode:
