Hi! We are using Shapr3D for our industrial tank design though we couldn’t really find any water texture that could be useful for our visualisation solutions. Is anyone aware of any solution or forthcoming developments on this? Many thanks.

Depends on the situation its sometimes possible to use image to simulate water texture.

Hi,  
You can use AI to fill your pool.In my example, my model is a bowl.  
Just create a simple prompt to get what you want.

Another tip, Shapr has credit system on AI Rendering so instead of using that and want to test out some prompts to preview. You can do the same in another AI like Gemini, it’s free, well I never paid for it and gave very similar results. I believe Shapr uses the same system anyways.

If you just needed water without other layering you can prompt it. Get rid of the black in Photoshop and put it in your own scene.

Yes Gemini but free?  
it ask me API Key to run… and you must enter your credit card to have it

That could be a location based thing.

Account has nothing tied to it, didn’t need API Key, just a bare bones google account (double checked with another gaccount samething).

Maybe here we have more access to free AI, which might make Shapr Gen AI more attractive for other regions (just a guess).
