Intuitive Powerful User interface CrossGems UI is a standalone modern and clean standalone UI interface optimizing space and making the software intuitive being ergonomic in everyday use. |
Fast & Reusable Design The models can be reused due to the implemented parametric design that provides a reduction of time in the workload when you are modifying any design and exploring all the possibilities that arise. |
Compatibility CrossGems is able to read and edit gems from others softwares like Matrix, RhinoGold and Panther, furthermore it has full compatibility with Panther models keeping the model 100% parametric. |
Gallery Presets This feature allows to store builder parameters to match any other target gems, rings and other objects, store your own presets or use one of the predefined presets which the software includes. |
Integrated Render Material Library The integrated material library allows to set and change metal, gem or ground materials just with few clicks, its automatic conversion by Display Mode will change materials in real time to adapt them for every rendering state. |
Features
- Accurate Stone Setting Tools – Multiple Gem settings available to create sets for any stone. With CrossGems you can rely on precision stone setting without compromising the design needs. Each unique Gem deserves a custom set.
- Advanced Jewelry Builders – Creating models from scratch or starting from interactive gallery parts. Each builder offers unique options for every detail of the design. The modelling history comes automatic on a logic modelling process.
- Sub Division – Newly integrated with Rhino 7.0 – SubD tools allows organic modelling for pieces which require smooth details.
- Automatic Pave – The most advanced Pave tool supports Nurbs, SubD and Mesh objects for gems placement. Each step of the design is saved, enabling you to make any further adjustments and updating all the steps saved in real time. This is a huge time saving creating or changing designs.
- Gallery Parts – Each builder can be defined from scratch or even starting from the gallery where sample parts are available to start from. The possibility to save your custom gallery parts is also available, providing the opportunity to fully customize your gallery.
- Automatic Patterns – Patterns are the faster way to create high volume jewelry parts with a small amount of metal. Either using patterns from the gallery or adding your own ones, there are several controls to accomodate them on each piece.
- Automatic Integrated Render – The integrated render and materials allow to create photo-realistic images in a very simple way, CrossGems will automatically manage the model materials when the display mode is switched.
