VR Output Mode - View model top and bottom while it sits on floor...

Jesse Farmer Jul 22, 2016 6:30 PM

I am attempting to create a VR, one where you are able to view the top and bottom of the model in the same html file. This particular model is positioned on the floor (like... snap to floor) of the environment. The problem I encounter, in the output file, is that once the camera goes below the floor level of the environment the model is then hidden in the output frames for the VR file. What are the correct methods/settings to achieve the output I am looking for?

Hi Jesse,

We fixed this issue in the upcoming Service Pack. The fix is also included in our 2017 Beta version. I would encourage you to download the Visualize 2017 Beta from the link in your SOLIDWORKS Customer Portal and try the same process to make sure what you are trying to achieve is possible.

Thanks!
Brian

  Hi Brian,
  
  Thanks for the reply. Even with my Visualize serial number registered on the Portal, I do not see any 2017 Visualize content available. Suggestions?
  
  Thanks,
  Jesse

    Never mind, I contacted my VAR and they pointed me to the SOLIDWORKS 2017 Beta download. I forgot that the main installer now includes the Visualization package.
