IvyTechEngineer Posted February 16, 2022 Author Share Posted February 16, 2022 Ok, I think I need to convert the cables to mesh models before I can actually texture them. I also believe that I need to dramatically reduce the number of vertices and triangles in the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gang in the Mesh forum can probably give helpful ideas about how to optimize the mesh most efficiently. Not speaking for anyone but myself, of course, but scripters are usually a lot better at scripting than at 3D modelling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvyTechEngineer Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 Thanks for your help. I was able to get a first version created and it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next I want to add an image that is displayed when the button is selected. My end goal is to try to recreate some of the motor models that were part of the defunct Engineering Island for 2009 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
