These types of plants (Vray Proxy) certainly bridge the big gap we had with the other two described before, and now our renders look photoreal, with no faceted surfaces, with correct texture mappings and still keeping our file sizes small.

vrscene files) is that they are not pre-rendered images put on cards (like the RPC’s discussed earlier), but actual 3D geometry (written in a special Vray format that makes it very small) that fully interacts with the scene (like the full geometry plants). One important consideration about Vray proxies (.vrmesh or. vrscene files can be read into Revit through the Vray tab or you can create your own RPC families that you can later on substitute with any Vray Proxy file. Plants created in other programs and exported to. Luckily for us, we now have Vray for Revit, which takes care of these two issues for us: the size of the file and the faceted look. They also look great as table centerpieces or on side tables, as long as they are not extremely close to the camera. These types of plants are ideal (and look great) for mid to background planes, where we can’t see full details of the textures of the petals, leaves or trunks.

Finally, one last disadvantage of full-geometry plants is their lack of mapping coordinates, which makes it impossible to use textures on (we can use colors only, but not actual textures).

Another disadvantage of full-geometry plants is that they are generally created in other software programs, and when imported into Revit and rendered with Revit’s default render engine, they tend to look faceted, which makes them not suitable for close-up renders. Also, the more full-geometry plants you insert, the slower it will be to work on the software, unless those plants’ display is optimized in Revit. The downside of full geometry plants is their file size, which, depending on the plant and the number of times you insert them, it can increase the size of the file quite a lot. These types of objects look a lot more integrated and natural in any render.

For quick renders, RPC’s work great, but for professional photorealistic renders, they might not be the best option available.įull geometry plants, on the other hand are actual 3D objects that fully interact with other objects and with the lighting conditions of the scene. This is definitely a big giveaway that the tree is not a real 3D object. While you can get an approximation of the light, the end result tends to look flat and in many cases (and depending on the position of the light or sun), their shadows look flat (this is because it’s literally a flat image of a nice tree put on a card), especially when the sun is hitting them from the side. Being pre-rendered images from different angles, RPC’s don’t fully interact with the lighting conditions of the scene. RPC’s can be rotated to give a different look to the plant and they can even be scaled to vary the sizes. RPC’s are basically pre-rendered images of the plants from different angles that look “good” in every situation. Revit comes with a good number of RPC’s plants already installed in its default library and after inserting them in your project, you can get a very decent looking render right off the bat. RPC’s have a great advantage over full geometry plants: they are very small files and the user can work with large amounts of them in a project without overloading the file/workflow. Each one of these has its own benefits and we will discuss them in this post so you can make more informed decisions on when to use each type in your projects. Plants (we will use the term plants to refer to plants, trees, shrubs, grass) can be found in three different formats: RPC’s, full geometry plants and Vray RPC proxies.

Plants, trees, shrubs and grass are some of the most sought-after families in Revit since they bring realism to the renders and they make the spaces look cozier/alive.
