i ve noticed that when i switch to orthographic view i cannot render the view. i have only black render output. how to make a render in say top view or front?
View 1 RepliesI'm creating 3D architectural models; primarily interior views. I use the ANIPATH command quite frequently and I'm good there.
However, I have not been able to render a still camera view that shows the lighting and resultant shadows. Whenever I attempt to render a still from a particular camera; I set it to realistic. It shows the 3D objects with materials; however not the lighting.
I've been using ACAD for about 15 years now, and consider my skill level upper-intermediate.
So far, the only successful still renderings I've been able to do are those directly associated with the typical ortho views: i.e., NE, NW, SE, SW, front, back, etc. But no avail on rendering from the camera point of view.
I have a finished 3D model in AutoCAD (although I did import it from another program), and I want to create the standard orthographic views as easily as possible. This tutorial looked perfect [URL].........
but i ran into some trouble. At step 5, where it says to press Base or use the command VIEWBASE i get a window that will ask me to open up some kind of inventor file. The tutorial does not acknowledge this, but the rest of the instructions and result seem like just what I need!
i'm wondering how to get orthographic views isometric view (with some dimentions) from an object ive already assembled with proengineer (student).

Is there a way to force the cursor to stay colored in the orthographic view?
I'm getting:
"Displacement is ON and set to view-dependent, but the view being rendered is orthographic. View-dependent displacement does not work with orthographic views."
After using ONE orthographic camera in a scene, however I am no longer using that Camera and still receiving the error. What should I do?
Is there a way to set a precise orthographic view - such as at 45 degrees. I need to render objects and take them into another application to dimension them so a set angle would be very useful.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAs it is possible to import 3D objects in PS... And display it in outline in an orthographic view, I'm wondering how to print this view at scale 1:1 of the model size...
and not the size of the image file defined in pixels. AS a workaround is it possible to export that view in vector format to edit and print in Illustrator or Acrobat.
When in Orthographic view and in back, left, right, top, bottom, front view, I cannot draw an object as Cube by example. To be able to make the object I have to move a little bit my view .
Example. If I was in Ortho - Back view, I move the view a bit so it is not perfectly on the back view than it allowed me to draw object. Another way is to change to Perspective view.
why I cannot make object on straight orthographic view?
Im having this annoying problem where i have created a plane and sky light for my scene and text, in the comp the shadows work perfectly, shining onto the ground, but on the render its not working?!? plus when ever i create my bit map for my view point, it comes out very white, almost transparent. ??
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do a 3D tutorial I found on youtube. Photoshop is not behaving the same way as what I'm seeing however. I think the problem relates to the OpenGL rendering of the shadows. See te example pics below.
This is the scene lit with 1 point light but not yet rendered. The shadows on the point light are turned off.
This is the same scene if I turn the shadows on:
Finally, this is what I get if I render it:
how to display the shadows correctly on the pre-rendered OpenGL version so I can place my light sources.
I'm using a W7 machine with a Core i5, an AMD 6870 card, and 16 gigs of ram. The video drivers were updated today.
Also, if I look at the same file on my work computer (with an Nvidia Quadro M card inside) it works fine - the pre-rendered view (with shadows) looks great. Is there some Photoshop preference or graphics adapter setting I need to be using?
When I apply a material like brick to an object, it renders grey. Other materials like glass and metal work fine. For some reason materials with textures/bitmaps just render grey.
View 4 Replies View RelatedEvery time i use batch render it loses the connection between the materials and objects, the materials are still in the editor and on the objects, only they are not the same. It's driving me CRAZY, because i forget/don't notice it and correct the material, render, but there's no difference, i correct something else, render, it's still not fixed, change again, render, not fixed, fix, render... Until i realize i'm correcting a material, that's not connected to the object. Vray and SolidRocks Is it a bug, setting or just my computer?

I keep getting a dialogue box that says "Revit was unable to render the view due to an unknown error during render calculations. The rendering operation will be canceled." The only option is to click "close" and when i do so, it continues to render but only the sky and grass. My buildings are not present.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble getting colors in Ink 'n Paint materials to render as specified. They appear washed out - brighter and in low saturation. It happens with both default and mental ray renderers, with or without exposure control on. It also happens if I create an all new scene with nothing but a single box and the default Ink 'n Paint material, using default render settings, not touching anything else - the blue is wrong in the render.
Maybe I am misunderstanding the material itself somehow or missing something else, but I imagined one of the points of the material is to force colors to render exactly as specified.
How to make shadows on the print in Viewport? You can see the result I would to achieve on the PIC.1 and PIC.2.I have done just PIC.3 - there are not shadows.

I am using Autocad Architecture and am attempting to use 3-D for the first time. The program opens and runs fine, and it allows me to create objects with no issue. However, when I try to apply materials to an object, the materials do not show up. The materials/textures tab is turned on, I can see the loaded materials, and the style is set to realistic. Even when I choose the material option "select objects with this material", it selects them as if the material is applied. The material does not show up either on screen or when rendered.

I am a new user to this may seem simple. When I render a 3D view the roof disappears in the render view, but when I switch to show the model it is there.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have never gotten this to work, but had put little effort into it until recently. Thus far I have checked my project standards to make sure "match sheet views to view" is checked to "yes".
In both View drawing and the sheet- VISRETAIN is set to 1.
the VPLAYEROVERRIDESMODE is set to 1
I am working on drawings that are in my current project through project navigator. I am using ACA 2010 and not sure what else I need to do. I turn off all the unwanted layers in the view drawing, then create a sheet and xref in the view to model space- all the layers reset, and I again have to turn off all the unwanted layers. If I change a layer color in the view drawing, it does not change in the sheet drawing upon save and refresh.
I hate wasting time repeating the same task over and over....
i draw up all of my walls, i connect them properly, cleanup etc. then i want to trim them with my roof slabs and what i see? i see my walls suddenly dissappear in 3d view but are still correctly shown on plan view? i know it has something to do with roofline because when i tried to project them automatically to ontu my roof slabs the walls dissappeared too!

I have loaded a conceptual mass family into the project and am getting jagged shadows in the default 3d view with shadows and the printed PDF (attached), regardless of the quality settings reflects this as well. Is there a way to adjust the precision of the shadow aliasing in the views. I know how to do it for a rendering.
I am running an Nvidia Quatro FX 2800 and have the latest recommended driver updates. I have tried adjusting the Aliasing manually from the card but am having no luck.
