Configure Project Tool

This tool simply sets up various required properties in your project, required by some of the other tools.

Quick Overview

The Set Up tool:

  • Adds 4 new “Layers” into your project, which are used to configure discrete “buckets” to manage interior and exterior building meshes, and interior and exterior props.
  • Renames the existing “Rendering Layers”, in index locations 1 and 2, used by the “Lighting Tools” to give you more control over how lighting effects various meshes in your building model.
