I "love" attaching navisworks projects. This has been a huge game changer for me.
But...
The following items are needed desperately:
1. The ability to view models in the 3d view, not only the real views. Particularly if points in the scene need to be deleted. I am working on a construction site. Many items on the construction site will be demolished. I need to see my proposed models with my existing point cloud after many parts of the point cloud have been removed.
2. Need to support 3dsmax, AutoCAD and Revit files
3. better control over lighting and texture colors.
A. The slightest changes to the naviesworks model colors have. Drastic impact in recap.
4. Bitmap texture support. Such as: brick for the side of a building. It works in navies works, but not in recap.
Anyone aware of a short term bandaid fix for 3d point clouds and proposed 3d models? Revit would work if it had cameras like 3dsmax. Currently the cameras in revit are awful. 3dsmax would be great by you need to render point clouds in mental Ray, this takes an eternity and basically 'renders' itself useless. There is a new renderer in 3dsmax 2018. If this renders point clouds fast it may do the trick. Has anyone here rendered point clouds in 3dsmax 2018. If so, let me know about your experience. Also, 3rd party renderers might also do a better job than Autodesk? I'm anxious to know as I have about 15stills that I'm trying to produce by the end of the week.
