Updating Workgroup Library for new version
fabrica replied to BartHays's topic in General Discussion
I set up a new 2025 folder on the server and use migration assistant to transfer 2024 -> to 2025. Then just change the folder location in your vectorworks settings. Usually pretty quick. -

Twinmotion & Vectorworks classes
fabrica replied to James Dawson Design's question in Troubleshooting
you have the option in TM to replace material (which will apply to all of same material ) or just to apply to object - you just need to change the selection option as below. Ideally, try and class your objects in vectorworks before exporting to twinmotion if you want to separate items out. -

the window cill won't show correctly in plan if you select an extension to the window cill - with and without window cill extension option below? (using update 2 also) -
41 mins for the redshift render is just dreadful.... and so far away from the quality of the corona render its not worth a comparison. (I confess I do use corona also and would only use shaded render in vectorworks for quick early stage views) If you want photorealistic/high end it's off to corona or twinmotion you go....

for me, I would do the following: - in your editor of choice (affinity, Pixelmator etc) , I would overlay the ambient occlusion (at 90%) onto the base colour and export as 1 image. Then add this image to the colour slot - change OBJ Attribute to -> image Not 100% sure but don't think Vectorworks can handle normal or height maps. (so no need for them) If you need to scale image you have to use the absolutely useless 'set by image' button ..! If you are only using 'shaded' render that's all I'd do...
