2D Procedural
3D Procedural

  • Procedural textures are created using mathematical algorithms instead of bitmap images. They use less storage space.

  • Procedural textures in Rhino 8 do not need texture baking in the Rendered and Raytraced display modes. When you zoom in close to an object, the procedural texture will always stay sharp, and will not pixelate.

  • For rendering and the Raytraced viewport, procedural textures need to be baked as bitmap images to the specified resolution. Information about texture baking...
