Traditional Asian Roof Tile Set

This modular 3ds Max model set features twenty distinct traditional Asian roof tile sections with authentic curved profiles and ridges. This collection provides a comprehensive range of modular roofing components designed to replicate historic East Asian architectural styles. The set includes various straight runs, corner transitions, ridge caps, and hipped roof sections, each detailed with repetitive tile patterns characteristic of traditional clay or ceramic construction. The geometry captures the distinctive concave curvature and overlapping tile arrangements seen in temple or residential roof designs. These components are supplied as individual, clean-mesh segments, allowing for flexible assembly across different building footprints and roof pitches. The uniform grey finish is neutral, suitable for further texturing or material application.

The download is a 80.8 MB compressed archive containing the native 3ds Max (.max) model holding 20 separate objects, set up with Corona materials. Open it in 3ds Max with Corona installed; for other programs, export to FBX or OBJ from 3ds Max first.

In 3ds Max, these components function as modular building blocks. Users should align the pivot points to a consistent grid to snap sections together efficiently. Given the modular nature, grouping components into logical assemblies or using instances for repetitive ridge details will help maintain scene performance. Materials can be applied via multi-sub-object IDs or by unwrapping the individual segments to apply custom weathered tile textures. Ensure that surface normals are correctly oriented to avoid rendering artifacts during lighting calculations.
