Wire frame rendering in vray

[email2ram]

with lights and shadows

Hi !

This is easy...
Create a vray material, after this push the little box next to the diffuse slot.
Find the "VrayEdgesTex" named material type.
And thats it !
At the editor u can control the wire's color, thickness and so on...
Good luck. ,)

Answering the one year old question inside the six year old thread >>>>

Just COPY the VrayEdgesTex Material from the diffuse slot into the opacity slot! That's it.


have been looking for this solution since years too and found it just today on some other site. Thanks to the guys which finally came up with this simple solution. The result just looks like regular max scanline wireframe.

If you like the look of wireframes that have backface culling than you can always leave the transparency at 100% and "Plus" your rendered image over your background in your compositing package (i.e. A+B) - whatever is white (wireframe) will show and whatever is black (everything else) will not.

For this to work you have to change the diffuse slider value to pure black after you've applied the VRayEdgesTex material - it is grey by default.

Hi,

i can't seem to find the "VrayEdgesTex". Are you working from Rhino with the Vray Plug-In? Any hint, please??? - Would save another life, many years later. thanks, everyone!
