How to render wireframes

11/08/2010

Hello! This time I come with a more practical tutorial requested by an user, and it's about how to render wireframes over solid meshes.

14069891

Things you'll learn: - 3 different ways of rendering wireframes on top of solid geometry You can also download the .blend here: Wireframe Render Methods.blend

EDIT-------- UPDATE:

In Blender Artists forums, somebody told me that there is actually a fourth method, and I found it useful, so I decided to make a quick video for updating this tutorial :)

Wireframe blend file provided doesnt open. It shows error : File format not supported. I tried downloading it few times but the same result and I have the latest build r36273.

Amazing tutorial, just what I was looking for. Hope this one gets bumped on Google's cache because it still only displays tutorials from around year 2003 and that is very misleading. Thanks a lot :)

I love this tutorial. I'm 18 years old, Latino, and I really want to learn how to create many things to apply them into a game engine and make my own games. Thanks for this tutorial, sir :) - Greetings from New York
