DianeP Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Anyone found such a material. Trying to create a Tiki pool house with a artificial thatch roof. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DianeP Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 I put a grass on it and changed its color and added a shingle texture. Would like it to look better if someone comes up with a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can create a molding or distribution polyline that would nicely replicate the thatch overhang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it work in vector view? Or only standard view? In vector view, I think I need a new pattern. Trying to get it to look right in vector view on the plans.

DzinEye Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Well, I didn't grab the focus being something that looked good in vector view when I created this roof texture. Only realized after I saw your comms with Robert. I think it'll be tough to get something that looks good in vector view, but the method Robert mentions is the approach to use. Here's the material I used if you want something for your 3D views to look like my example. I found that having the 'live edge' on the material makes it look better. You'll need to adjust the scale to work just right. Thatch roofing.calibz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
