Re: My future home
Everything included in an imported ZIP file ends up in the final SH3D file...
Makes sense. But it also means users may benefit from paying some attention to imported models.
1) Some models found online are enormous in file size, while SH3D handles this remarkably well, it will slow down your design experience (some are just badly designed, others have a level of detail that is only justified for HQ rendering on powerful hardware).
2) I guess you can get rid of quite a lot of the extra nonsense by importing the model into an empty SH3D document, exporting the model to OBJ (after resizing and adjusting colours etc), and then re-importing them (or adding them to your own library). At least, then you will have a reasonably clean model - and one that has been "tested" with SH3D.
ok
PS - sorry, fsava, digressing from your very nice home - good luck
