fahim108 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Is there a plug-in or any 3rd party software that can "generate" baked textures from a given 3d textured model automatically. I just want static shadows; no dynamic variables like reflection, transparency etc. This could greatly help in achieving a real-time rendered walk-through (as in 3D games) for a client who wishes to roam around in a given 3D model. I tried numerous tricks, but the results are not that great. Its a pain redrawing each surface texture and then later applying them...

Cad64 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 You could save your CAD model to .dxf, import it into Blender and then bake your textures there. Blender is a free program by the way. Or you could go from Autocad to Sketchup to Blender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
