Kerkythea | Help and Advice

Did you choose the same texture? I mean, if you made a wall with a brick texture in SKP, you have to select the same texture in Kerkythea.

Or, maybe the texture is too big, so it doesn't look good.

yes, the texture you need to use as bump map is exaclty the same as the brick texture, and it is auto-adjusted so that if matches with the original texture perfectly

so "bump" can make material look realistic or not?

sorry didn't notice your post

if you're refering to your wood material, it seems the texture is of bad quality so the results can't be any better with this texture.. probably find a better one

add > bitmap ist für texturen, ja.

basic packs sind vorinstalliert.. wenn nicht, check mal die ordner wo Kerky installier ist, wenn die leer sind > neuinstallieren

ok danke hab jetzt ne textur ausm inet geholt und die in bitmap eingefügt, wie ist das wasser?

[Dubai Skyscraper]

die textur muss bzw. sollte aber die selbe sein wie die aus SketchUp, sonst sieht das ja anders aus als gewollt...?

naja ohne die settings vom basic pack sieht das wasser eben nicht realistisch aus, sondern mehr wie plastikfolie

[Marioma]

kannst du noch n tutorial machen fürn kleines haus sketch + render?

[Dubai Skyscraper]

sorry das is nicht so einfach. denn in Skp gibts kein 'ideal' nach dem man vorgehen kann. es gibt haufenweise tricks um effizient zu arbeiten, aber das ist idR selbsterklärend. alles andere hängt von der eigenen kreativität ab

[Marioma]

okay danke
haste eigentlich auch tipps für sowas wie faßaden unterteilung bei sketch up, oder muss man alles selbst machen also die fenster mit dazwischen alu?

[Dubai Skyscraper]

das ist reine geschmackssache, kannst dich aber einfach an echten gebäuden orientieren

alles weitere rund um Skp findest du hier...

i donno what you all are talking about

[Dubai Skyscraper]

don't worry it was just some basic advice

[UjaiDidida]

Thanks a lot Dubai Skyscraper, from this thread I learned how to add sky, edit materials and rendering properly, and its all applied for the current skyscraper contest

[Dubai Skyscraper]

i'm glad if it was helpful

now right-click "Reflection" in the category "Reflectance". choose "Add Color".

[IMG]

open the second tab in the new window and insert the RBG code for a grey color. this color represents the strenght of the reflection. e.g. 0/0/0 means 0% reflectivity, 128/128/128 means 50% reflectivity, and so on.
i recommend to use 190/190/190 for best results.

[IMG]

repeat step #2 for "Refraction" in the category "Transmittance".
this time, use 230/230/230 for best results.

then, set the "Index of Refraction" (just below "Refraction") to 1.000.

click "Apply Changes".
congratulations, your glass material is finished!

Thanks DS, Very nice. My concepts are cleared. THANKS X 1000X10^99

bump mapping buat surface tu nampak ada 'jalinan sentuh'..tapi kalau wood tu rasanya tak yah pakai bump kot sebab surface dia rata je.. (jalinan tampak)
