Natural Stone Slabs Material Library

[patricks]

Dear friends,

our natural stone slabs library is now available! A set of 17 high quality materials to dress your models, with high resolution professional texture maps. During installation, a new sub folder called "NS Slabs" is created under Materials data folder. A material name that starts with 2x2 means that the textures used have 2048 x 2048 resolution, 4x4 means 4096x4096 and so on.

The textures have been setup with cubic mapping for easy drag/drop right on your models. The library can be installed and used only by licensed customers within Thea Render context [Copyright (C) - Solid Iris Technologies].

How to install the library
1. Go to our forum page that contains the library download links: http://www.thearender.com/forum/viewtop ... 111&t=7011
2. The above requires that you are a member of the licensed user club (if not, please send us an e-mail with your forum nickname along with your order id or reseller info).
3. Download the library somewhere on your hard disk (please, be patient, since these libraries are not small!)
4. You can launch Thea Studio and open the downloaded file (on Windows, you can more easily double click on the file from the explorer).
5. You have to agree on the license agreement before going on (which is the same updated licensed agreement as for Thea Render itself).
6. Then click on the check button and the necessary files will be copied to your Materials data folder (you can also change this default location).
7. Congratulations, now you have the library installed!

Important: library installation requires Thea revision 610 or above.

best wishes

These look great. Thanks!

As a side note I'm always a bit disappointed when I see a new post in the announcement forum and it isn't a new Thea version. Sigh!

But they keep the spirit up until next revision, right? And the more the waiting, the more the enhancements/additions.
