Importing place settings

Top  Previous  Next

I have some place setting jpgs that I would really like to use for table diagrams for my set up staff, but I can not figure out how to import them.


There are two ways that I can think of at the moment:
 
1. Create billboards and apply the jpg images as textures to them. You can find out how to go about this by watching the help video that talks about Billboards. You will find it in the video index under Billboards, non-rotating.
 
2. You could load one of your jpgs as a background picture in Furnish and then use that as sort of a template as you load and appropriately size circles and rectangles to create the effect of the place setting. Once you have done this, save the resulting arrangement as a piece of furniture into your custom pieces library. Now you can load your new piece and use it as you would any other piece of PartyCAD furniture.
