joerg Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 does anyone know why textures on doors do not render in open GL...? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Triple check that the Classes of the door components (select the door and click the Settings button in the OIP) are set to a class that has the texture defined. Quote Link to comment
joerg Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 Thanks Pat! i never had to do this and i am setting the Render mode to Texture ( not "Class texture") i do many different doors in this project and as far as i know i was allways able to render it that way..or am i wrong?

Pat Stanford Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 In my relatively stock version of VW2020, most of the doors seem to have all of the components set to <Door Class> which means that they will use the same class that the door is set for. If you used a Styled Door that used different classes and then switched back to Unstyled it is possible that the classes got set to something else and carried forward into your other doors.

joerg Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) i set it to unstyled but it seems to be impossible to give it a texture as it was easily possible in VW 2019 see screenshot. But it is not working in VW 2020 anymore instead i have to fill in a form larger than my taxreport for each door...really enoying!! i want a simple door tool! PLEASE!!

Pat Stanford Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 There has not been any substantial change in how this works between VW2019 and VW2020. Quit VW and restart. Open a new blank file and place a door. Do what you did in 2019. Does it work the same? Quote Link to comment
joerg Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 Did this...not working! not on my tempate or a blanc document....does it work for anybody else? SP4 on a i Mac and OS 10.15.4 bthw Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 It appears that in VW2020 that the texture of parts can only be defined by a Class Texture and not individually. If you want the entire door to be the same texture, you can set that texture in the Object and Component Textures box of the of Textures Pane of the Edit Class(es) dialog box and then set the door to have that class. Or you can use multiple classes and set different parts of the door to different classes. I don't have a version of 2018 or 2019 set up to be able to test the older functionality.

joerg Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 an other example how to make an easy task difficult...! now i have to create a texture than i have to create an other class than i have to apply... what else is coming? it is all changing from an creative easy to use tool to an gloryfied spredsheet in my opinion...sorry but it drives me mad. It is one thing if you need it and want to use it but an other for all the 90% butter and bread jobs to complicate work. Is there a simple door plug in arround? Quote Link to comment
