Vertical Bricks around windows
« on: April 04, 2023, 05:14:36 pm »
Hi,

I try to make a brickwall with a 2D Array and Clipping Area, with "vertical" bricks around all openings (windows for exemple). See attached files for more informations.

The clipping area is made up of several splines : a peripheral, and others that will "remove" the brick in places.
It works on the peripheral spline, but not on other splines

Is there a way to do that?
Regards,

Michal Karmazín

Hi,

A possible approach would be to assign different Material IDs to these spline segments (outer / inner vertical / inner horizontal) and handle these parts within individual Generators (using the Limits > Material ID feature). Please find attached the modified scene (230406_BrickWall_iToo.max).

Best regards,
