A mesh can be exported into a file via the vrayProxyExport command in Rhino's Command Line. Displacement of Proxy object is not supported. Be aware that depending on the V-Ray proxy object detail, using the preview type Whole mesh might put substantial load on your system. vrmesh files can be rendered outside of Rhino - for example, by V-Ray for 3ds Max, V-Ray for Maya, V-Ray for Softimage and in the standalone version of V-Ray. Replace Object with Proxy – Enables the original meshes to automatically replace their proxy versions.Įxport – Exports the. Overwrite Existing File – When enabled, V-Ray automatically overwrites any existing vrmesh files. Vertex Clustering (fast) – This method is fast and generates a fairly precise preview mesh.įaces in Preview – Specifies the number of faces in the viewport preview of the proxy Refined Clustering (quality) – Slightly slower, but generates a more precise preview mesh. Preview type – Chooses the method for generating the proxy preview:įace Skipping (very fast) – The fastest preview method. The file is saved in a custom folder, specified by pressing the Save File icon on the right. The addition of Proxy Scenes allows you to export a selection of geometry, lights, and special objects combined into a single proxy.įile Path – The name of the file. Mode – Allows you to choose between Proxy Mesh (.vrmesh) and Proxy Scene (.vrscene) export. To create a proxy, select the object(s) you want to export.Ĭlick the Export Proxy Icon to open the Export Proxy window. The Freebies section of Czerwiński’s blog also includes a range of other useful resources, including cutouts of people and cars, sky textures – and 12 further tree models in a range of formats, taking the total to over 30.Exporting a mesh can be done in one of two ways: Through the V-Ray Object Toolbar, or through the V-Ray menu. They’re provided as a 3ds Max 2012 scene. Updated 2 December 2014: Krzysztof Czerwiński has posted three new models on his blog, this time of a tree not as commonly seen in collections of stock assets: the yew. The models are provided as a 3ds Max 2010 scene file and as OBJ files, and are licensed for commercial use. Updated 22 April 2014: Krzysztof Czerwiński has posted four new tree models on his blog, this time of a Norway maple tree at four different growth stages ranging from 1.5m to 5m in height.
The developers run their own community site where you can find a further 23 models, all of different species. You can find more of Czerwiński’s free content on his blog, including more sets of 3D trees – some with V-Ray materials or in OBJ format – and cutout photos of people and cars.Īs a bonus, Czerwiński created the models with Aviz Studio’s ATree3D script, which is also free to use.
The models, which are provided in MAX format, are free for commercial use. Krzysztof Czerwiński has released a pack of 18 high-resolution models of birch trees via the Viz-People website.
