Blocks & Materials includes:

- all opacity maps, and mapping coordinates for 3D Studio, AutoVision, and ARE-24
- all pre-scaled for American (Imperial) or Metric Units
- available for a very attractive price
To use the sample blocks:
- If you work in inches or feet, select the IMPERIAL subdirectory
- If you work in millimeter, centimeter, or meters, select the Metric folder.
Select the appropriate folder for the rendering application that you use:
- 3DS2 for 3D Studio Release 2
- 3DS3 for 3D Studio Release 3 and TrueSpace
- AUTOVISN for AutoVision Release 1
- ARE24 for ARE-24
- ACADR12 for AutoCAD Release 11, and 12, as well as MicroStation
- ACADR10 for AutoCAD Release 10, and products compatible with R10 DWG files
- DXF for all CAD products that read 3D DXF files (but none of the above formats)
All textures can be found in the folder Textures.
Important note for users of 3D Studio, TrueSpace and AutoVision:
Only insert the 3D models from the appropriate directories. Don't worry about defining the textures yourself. We have already done all the hard work of assigning the mapping coordinates and creating the opacity maps. When you insert any of the meshes in your 3D model, all textures will be there if you set your mappath to the TEXTURES directory
Have fun with these blocks, and call us if you like to have 550 more.
