With files exported with Prospect version 2.11 or newer, users have a high degree of control and reconfigurability more in line with how geometry is thought of and managed within Revit. Prospect supports a level of detail in-between 'Medium' and 'Fine' and brings in materials similar to how they would appear in the 'Realistic' setting. To see an accurate preview of how your materials will appear in IrisVR, open up the Revit Material Browser and navigate to the 'Appearance' tab. Overrides from V/G menu are not currently supported, though categories hidden in V/G will be respected. Settings Not Supported: reflectivity, self-illumination, bump-maps, and relief patterns.
