Problem with 8K texture on site plan with large aerial view

Ideas & Requests

Hi guys.

Thanks and congrats for the 1.9, the new sky system is great+++ (just to quote one thing among all!).

It seems that D5 doesn’t deal anymore with 8K texture. I mean most of the time 1 or 2K textures are enough for archviz, but in the specific case of a site area with a large aerial view texture file, this is a problem. It seems also at that scale maps are less responsive (AO, normal, color change…)
Here below you have a comparison between blender and D5, same mesh, same texture.

Resizing with reason all textures while importing is a good thing but maybe you could had an option for this case in the shaders type (like glass, alpha, you could have “extra large” or “site texture” or “High quality”).

You can download the file here with 2 versions of the mesh (high and less poly):

One small last thing on another topic; please, allow to sort the user library by letter or number; folders are listed randomly and it’s always a bit confusing to get straight to what you want.

Hi

  1. For now, the limitation of texture resolution is 4k. Sorry that we do not support 8k texture in order to decrease the calculation resource.
  2. We will reorder the assets library in the future, and also add Search and Favorite features, which are coming soon.

Thanks,
Oliver

Hello, currently we are not working on this feature, maybe this will be added in the future when more and more higher resolution textures are needed.

Best,
Oliver

In that case the sotware doesnt provide any warning about the limitations. This is a very big waste of time if your model is destroyed by the d5 limitations.
I was forced to erase 3 projects because of that.
If d5 has this problem in 2024 it means the software is still in a amateur and beta state. One more of these BUGS and i will remove d5 and recommend all my contacts not to use it.-
