NDCADTECH Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Is there an easy way to model a fence (like a barbed wire or chain link fence) in AutoCAD Plant3D? Quote
Cad64 Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Unless you absolutely HAVE TO model it, I would recommend using a texture with an opacity map in the "Cutout" slot. Below is a chain link texture I have used in some of my projects. Quote
NDCADTECH Posted June 29, 2016 Author Posted June 29, 2016 Nah it's more of a place holder, something to look good to the client. Thanks for the tip! Quote
NDCADTECH Posted September 2, 2016 Author Posted September 2, 2016 So I ended up using structural members to design a fence. The pattern is a structural plate. If anyone wants to replicate it, just ask and I can write out the steps I went through. Thanks! Quote
Cad64 Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Can you post a render of your fence, so we can see what you did? Quote
NDCADTECH Posted September 2, 2016 Author Posted September 2, 2016 Sure, how does this look? It wouldn't upload when I first tried... Quote
Cad64 Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Looks pretty good from here, and if it looks good and it works for the purposes of the render, that's all that matters. Quote
