Topic: Material Mapping

[JohnsonJS]

I finish my white model in google Sketchup, usually when i use 3ds max, i would apply material in 3ds max. But for lumion, should i also finish all the material mapping in Sketchup too? then edit in lumion? or I should just import the white model in lumion, then apply materials on that?

And i also want to ask that how to adjust the opacity for the materials
for examples i want to do such a kind of things.
sth like translucent glass with some graphics printed on.

hi
try using a glass material with texture influence slider at max

[JohnsonJS]

Hi, can i do it in Lumion too? thanks for your reply

[JohnsonJS]

Oh i got what you mean, i did the edition , Maximize the texture influence, but it didnt give the result i want...

what i want to do is to make a picture become 50% opacity...

thank you though^^

sample with glass material and texture inflence to max

[JohnsonJS]

Oh, that's creative to do a curtain instead of a traslucent glass which lumion cannot do

I learn a lesson, thank you very much, it provides a option for me.

I was just thinking about should i give lumion up.

thanks dude.

can you check that ?

u mean the shadow on the grass? should be that paper inside the bottle right?

I am satisfied with this bottle result,
hope dude can explain more how to do this

hi johnson
just make a uv mapping with the pictutre on a plane in your 3D editor
import it in lumion
change the texture to glass in lumion
set the texture influence and the double side sliders to max
