4.8 Rivetable Transformer

In this section, we will get to know the transformer "Rivetable". It is used wherever I want to apply rivet connections. Go to the folder VRAssembling/meshes/tools/RivetGun and drag the mesh named Rivet_Big into the scene. Place it as shown in the illustration.

Next, we will use the Rivetable transformer to turn the 3D mesh into an interactive rivet. To do this, go to the Transformer tab and select "Rivetable" under Transformers. Then assign a slot name and select "Assembly". Make sure the 3D model is selected, and finally press the "Spawn" button.
