Diagonal Mesh

Anyone got any ideas as to how i can model the attached wire mesh?, I tried to use a curtain wall by changing the angle of the mullions but that doesn't work very well, any other solutions?

Not modeling, but using as a texture?

Why would you increase your file-size by modeling it?

Because texture patterns cannot be rendered

Well, they are meant to be rendered. Which problem do you encounter?

Are you talking about massing?

No, I simply do not understand why you can't use this image for rendering.

Because it won't look right

What is the problem you are encountering; what does not satisfy you?

You can find higher resolution patterns on the web 'wire mesh .png'

Why don't you use an Appearance Asset with Cutout Types? There are several in the OOTB Assets. Search "Screen".

Don't model. Use a material for it.

Thanks I've just used the material for it and it actually looks quite good!

Would you be willing to share this with me? Client is asking for something simliar, but starting with this would be a HUGE time saver for us.

Hi, would you be able to elaborate on how to get this done please? I want to do a DUCT end-cap with Wiremesh/bird screen. Thank you
