MKingsley Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Does anybody know where I could find some standing seam metal roof textures? I can't find them in VW RW or anywhere else on the web. 1 Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Dave Donley Posted May 4, 2006 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 4, 2006 Hello Michael K: Have you looked at the Roof Tiles Color shader in the Edit Texture dialog? There is a Corrugated type of roof tile that looks like a metal roof. Quote Link to comment
MKingsley Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Thanks Dave, but I was able to do better with the Vertical Stripe shader. I don't know anybody putting that type of metal roof on their house; maybe on a warehouse. Can't believe there isn't one typical residential metal roof texture in the Exterior texture file. Thanks again though for your help. Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Try one of the following: create your own roofing using simple extrudes, export this as an image file, then use the image to create new texture. Or, check out the roofing available (or at least it used to be) at SketchUp. FWIW, I also find it odd that SS roofing is not part of the VW package... 1 Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 As I recall ... www.vectordepot.com has a couple of my simple Metal Roof Textures. Quote Link to comment
MKingsley Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 Thanks for your help guys. Right under your Texture offering at VectorDepot, E.J., is a standing seam texture offered by someone else, however I was unable to find any such texture in that file. I forgot about SketchUp. Thanks Peter. Quote Link to comment
