XGen > Import Collections or Descriptions

 
 
 

Opens the Import Collections or Descriptions window, which lets you load Collection (.xgen) or Description (.xdsc) files into the current scene.

NoteWhen you import a Description into the current scene, the target surface geometry must have the same topology as the original surface geometry. Otherwise, any PTEX maps associated with the Description will have no effect.

Collection

File Name

Click the browse icon and locate the Collection (.xgen) file you want to load.

Namespace

Specify the namespace that is used for the specified Collection file.

Include patch bindings

Imports the patch binding information from the Collection (.xgen) file.

Turn this off if you want to bind the Description to a different mesh object. When off, XGen creates new bindings for the patches. Guide information is not imported.

Description

File Name

Click the browse icon and locate the Description (.xdsc) file you want to load.

Add Description To

Select which XGen Collection (.xgen) to which you want to add the imported Description.

Descriptions must be contained by Collections before that can be used in the scene. See XGen Collections.
