Product Notes

A simple, but very intricate model of a plastic milk crate, available in several scaled .obj formats, for importing easily into other applications, like Blender, Poser, or Daz|Studio. This object is modeled to scale, using standard milk crate dimensions of 11" high, x 13" wide(sides). Since these crates are used differently by several customers, manufacturers and suppliers are said to make them accordingly, to fit the customer specifications, so dimensions and styles can vary greatly from crate to crate. The model has been UV Unwrapped, and comes complete with texture maps for the color/diffuse, material channels. I've provided 4 different color texture maps in maximum quality JPG format, with resolution of 2048x2048 pixels, which is suitable for close-up rendering. Notice that you may need to tweak, or adjust, the diffuse and specular intensity on the model after import, to ensure an optimum render result. Seamless procedural materials should work fine on this model as well, and actually encouraged.I modeled this object with the minimal amount of polygons needed to achieve the desired shape, however, I did add additional supporting edges to the model in order to create beveled edges to catch the light, and reduce any potential for render artifacts across various 3D render platforms. This model is intended for high resolution rendering and visualization, and is not suited for real-time game engines, without some optimization. The object consists of 20,989 polygons in total, and 19,344 vertices. The model is 99.5% quad polygons, and 0.3% triangles. There are no polygons on this model that exceed 4 sides.You are free to use or modify this model as you see fit for your own projects or scenes. As with all my freebies, this model can be used for both commercial and non-commercial renders. You may not, however, resell these objects, or any derivative of them; individually, or as part of a package/set.The POSER-specific OBJ version was exported with a scale conversion that should load with the appropriate scaling into Poser 9 and above. To ensure proper import into Poser, BE SURE to DE-select all check box options boxes in the Import Options dialogue. DESELECT the "Centered", "Place on Floor", "Percent of Standard Figure Size", etc. options in the import dialogue box after you select the poser .obj file, and then the object should load with correct scale into the scene. In DAZ|STUDIO, simply choose the Poser-scaled .obj version, and import with Poser Preset option from the import dialogue box. BLENDER users, obviously, choose the Blender scaled .obj to import. All other software applications may use the standard OBJ version.
