Are there any materials that don’t seem to work without fussing around?.Please let me know whether it will be useful. Having the new library in place will just confuse the installer. I’d rather you didn’t replace the files in the libraries folder just yet, because we’re going to switch out the old material library soon. You can drag and drop materials right from the Windows Explorer folder view onto Rhino objects or into the Material Editor. To install, just unzip the file onto your desktop. Use the material types for simple, non textured materials, and the library for photographic texture materials. The library is designed to complement the new material types - so it’s not full of “green plastic, blue plastic, red plastic” type materials. The materials are all real-world scale, and they should drop onto real-world-scale objects and work without any modification or fuss. This will (hopefully) ensure the material previews work correctly inside Windows Explorer and the Library panel (and the file open dialog). Please note that it will only work properly with the Rhino WIP we released last night, so make sure you have an up-to-date Rhino WIP and that you have restarted after installation. The “in-progress” version of the library is here: The library will ship in place of the small library that currently shows up when you add a new material in V5, and will include something like 1000 materials. Unreal users will be able to use these master materials on their custom content to achieve a high level of photorealism and can combine it with their own textures and assets across any project.We are in the process of building a new material library for Rhino WIP. Ability to use an object’s UVs or to use tri-planar mapping, which can assist texture alignment by automatically aligning textures on objects that might not have been given proper UV coordinates.Advanced shading techniques, such as parallax occlusion mapping for materials needing relief, which is useful for surfaces like bricks.Available now on the Marketplace, we’ve ensured that these rich and powerful master materials support the latest ray-tracing advancements and have used best practices to define how the nearly 500 PBR materials were used.
