In my wall plugin and truss plugin I’ve avoided trying to model the 3D nature of some of these claddings. The problem is that the number of polygons created by such a realistic model will quickly bog down a fairly complex residential project. Most homes these days are not just a simple box, we are talking at least 25 separate wall panels on average.
My solution is to simply utilize carefully constructed materials which simulate the 3D texture of these various claddings. All of these cladding examples are just textures/materials, they are not 3D.
