finding / adding textures

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 10:55:04 GMT

Where can I find jpg textures for Metal Sales Classic Rib wall panels? We use the classic rib panels for walls and roofs. Would be great for using with the photo rendering tool. Not to much available in the libraries for textures. Do we have to find individual textures for all of the different colors of panels available?

We currently are on ArchiCAD 10.

You might be able to find something that works from CADimage. Probably the simplest & most costly solution.

But if it were me, I'd probably model the profile. They have sections of the panels in dwg and pdf at Metal Sales. You could easily build it using the profile manager. Or alternately you could build a texture map approximating the profile and use it in a material - wouldn't look as sharp as a profile close up, but would look good from a distance and be easy to apply.

I'm not sure what a Metal Sales Classic Rib wall panel looks like but there are quite a few websites where you can download textures.
Some are free and some are not.

One such website is ...
