I'm trying to utilize Revit ability to link an IES file as a lighting source in a lighting family. I'm running Revit Architecturer 2009. The ies files i downloaded from the manufacturer website produce an image inconsistent with what i would expect a light source to provide, instead of the "white" light, i get a red/green/black/blue image. I can link any of the ies files that are provide with Revit, and they work fine. it's only this Manufacturer provide file that's causing the error.
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.
20 times now when i've tried to render to cloud i get the same fatal error message and tried this on different computer as well. it was fine and then tried one render and keep getting same message - see attachment.
Now is the pattern problem in hands! I try to attach patterns to wall: Materials, Cut pattern, New, Drafting pattern, Custom, Import:
And path: C/Program files/Autodesk/Revit Architecture 2011/Data
And there: Revit.pat (or any other *.pat file that I have).
And there it comes: An error! Syntax error in line 2 or 12 or 10 ? What has happened? Before I was managed to attach patterns ok. To an other project I mean.
Where on earth is the problem? In the project? The whole program? In the pattern file?
When we use Point Cloud Feature Extraction for Autodesk® Revit® 2012 in our machine in a central file with the pcg file then there is a Run time error shown in revit. But if we work in a single file then the problem does not occur. How we ovecome this situation?
when I am trying to synchronizing to central I get a message twice saying "inches to the fourth power." then another message saying "file not saved."so then I find myself having to exit revit and start over with a new local file.
I did notice that when one person had a view or sheet open that I needed to work on that is when the error came up the most. so when the three of us would complete a task we would have to synchronize right after that task e.g. if I had several lights to place on the RCP I would place one light and synchronize and then place another light and synchronize. If I tried to do too much or waited too long to synchronize the error would come up.
I have made several attempts to render the same image in Revit 2012. The render never actually starts. The status bar never comes up, after about 30 minutes revit just pops up a box that says I do not have enough memory. (The green status bar on the bottom of the screen gets stuck at 84%). This cannot be, because I am rendering on draft quality settings an image that is 672 kb, and I am using the most recent Macbook Pro with VMWare.
I am rendering projects to print them in large format pages, but the printed images the edges are not so sharp, so I tried to rise the render quality, but the final result is always in 72. How can I give a higher quality in order to print those images in large format.
I have a 3D (Camera View) of an interior where I have a number of picture frames placed on the walls. Each frame has a painting 'Decal' and all but 1 render correctly leaving a blank frame.
I have been trying to send a render in cloud but the following message keep on appearing:
Si è verificato un problema (a problem occurred). Il servizio rendering non è stato in grado di completare la richiesta (the rendering service has not been able to complete the request).
At my office we have 4 work computers connected to a server with all the projects and other information there. Is there a way to use the server some how to use all the computers to render an image?
I have been using X5 for almost a year and everything seems find until lately when I up graded my system to window 8.1. I have assemble a 40 min video but when I tried to use 'share' to output to MP4 iphone/ipad HD,the rendering go halfway then the VideoStudio crashed with an error 'The program has encountered an unspecified error' and a DMP file and ask me to contact Corel support. My project only has 1 video tack, 1 voice track and 1 music track and the project file is 17,426 KB. If I disable the voice track, then the project can render successfully. Since the voice track is recorded using VideoStudio voice over with WAV format, I went back and convert all voice into mp3 to smaller size but still crash when render halfway. My system should have enough resources to process this 40 min video.
Window 8.1 pro 64x 16GB ram CPU i7 Hard drive 2T.
I have assemble 40 min video with heavy voice before in XP and it render without any problem. Is there are issues between VideoStudio and window 8.1 64x ? Is there a limit to VS project size, or voice track size ? I read some of the posts and you recommend to manfully uninstall the software and reinstall the software. I am reluctant to do this, not at least after I can output my project to mp4, because it might wipe out my setting, templates, libraries, and even my project file. Do you know of any tool so I can read the DMP file ? I don't understand what good to have a DMP file when my software have passed the 30 day or 1 time support warranty?
It has been very frustrate to spend all this time to assemble a video and at the end cannot produce a sharable version. I was about to upgrade to X6 but now I have to think twice if this issue is not resolved. What good are all thees fancy new features in X6 to me if I cannot produce a sharable version of my project ?
I've rendered out hundreds of these before in 3DS max 2011 with no issue but in 2012 and 2013 the background colour of my ambient occlusion renders are black instead of being white for all the objects selected except for the first one. What's going wrong?
I set the colour to white in the render to texture window and if I select a single model it works fine but if I select the same model plus others, the first one is saved fine but the others all have a black background. I'm saving them as TGAs which is my preferred option and as I said has been working in 2011.
I have created some surfaces in Civil 3D ...the client wants to render them with Revit but isn't able to. Any way to make my surfaces compatible with Revit ? I'll admit, I don't know which version he is using.
For some reason when I render any of my items that have white materials, they will not be white. They appear grey. In the shaded view they are white, but even the realistic view is grey.
how to adjust the settings of different objects I want to have a standard brushed stainless steel material so that the material renders accurately. It always seems to look so distorted. I feel like most of the materials in Revit are this way too. Floors look overly glossy and "fake". I am not looking for photo realism, but it seems like there must be a solution based on image galleries I've seen online. Are there any tips out there for what settings to use to get materials with reflective to render more accurately?
For no apparent reason the Render Button at the bottom of the view frame has disappeared. With RayTrace I just get a black screen. It was all working fine then suddenly the problem occurred.
There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the PC - I can render in MAX Design as normal.
I have isolated two issues in AE CC where I can duplicate a failed render with this message:
After Effects error: Rendering error while writing file "xxx". An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted. (-1610153464)
This happens when opening an AE CS6 project and trying to render a simple comp with only one text layer and a moving mask. It also just happened after my first round trip test with Cinema 4D. I could RAM preview the c4d layer but the output to Quicktime h.264 failed.
I have even tried a full reinstall of AE CC. I have the basic FxFactory Pro plugins and MagicBullet Looks installed, but neither are being used since this is a single 1280x720 comp with a single C4D layer. Plus like I said it failed with the same error in past CS6 files.
I don't know how to force disable a plugin to test that, but I can't see how an unused plugin could cause a render to fail like this.

Using Revit Architecture 2013 with Update 1 on a Windows 7 32 bit system. I've rendered successfully in the past ( a month ago, as I recall) and then, as I continued working on hte model, the ability was gone.
I receive either the files could not be uploaded or the files could not be translated errors each time. It's quite frustrating. I love this product, but I am in grief becuase of this.
I've tried all the suggested remedies in the book: Logged in and out from Revit, cleared the firefox cookies and cache (used ccleaner) logged in and out of the 360 account on the web and said my prayers. Several times. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Revit on a different computer, to no avail.
Since other models render perfectly, I suspect a problem with the model.
I am wondering why my site will not render the grass on my topo surface? (it just renders grey...)I have checked my materials, view/element properties, and visibility/graphics.
I'm running Revit Architecture 2012. I did a render and it looks fine in the default {3D} View. I selected to save it to the project and when I go to the renderings view to recall it, the color balance is all shifted off way way to the blue end. I tried going back over to render dialog and adjusting the white point all the way up, and it had the expected effect in the {3D} View (shifting everything to overblown orange), but nothing changed at all in the renderings View when I tried to resave it after making the adjustment.
I create short videos using the PS frame animation panel. I used to be able to FILE-export-render video- and choose MPEG-4 Video in the settings panel which would render my file into a small .mov file. Now in CS6 the new render video panel does not have that option. I tried the QT options in the export window and my file is hugh! The H.264 option gives me an .mp4. I put the .mp4 into my web page via Dreamweaver and my video does not play when uploaded into the sever. The video plays fine in Dreamweaver before I upload to the server. After I upload to the server I just get a Q and no video on my web page. If I render the same file in CS5 I am able to view it in my web page. ADOBE WHY DID YOU CHANGE YOUR EXPORT VIDEO RENDERING OPTIONS in CS6?
NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps) Microsoft AVI files 24 bits, 720 x 480, 16:9, 29.97 fps Lower Field First DV Video Encoder -- type 1 DV Audio -- NTSC, 48.000 kHz, 16 Bit, Stereo.
When the rendering completes, a "Catastrophic Failure" error code comes up. When I try to play the video in VLF, I get the following message
"AVI Index
This AVI file is broken. Seeking will not work correctly."
If I press "don't repair", the file plays, but the indexing bar does not run along the bottom of the player. Obviously something is wrong, but I can't seem to work it out.
The input files are as follows:

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, with no luck.
I have worked in Sony Vegas 9 and I was hoping Adobe Premier Pro CC was similar--- but its not. I can't figure out how to render and save a file as a windows media or mp3 or in any format for that matter.
I am trying to throw a screen shot up onto a TV model to make my rendering more fun and I can't get it to work right!!!
I duplicated one of the standard plastic materials in Revit's lib and replaced the color with a cutom image (first tried jpg then png). I had to tweak the transforms to get it to fit the screen. Looks great in the camera view but when I render the transforms are off.
I would like to convert my AVI files captured from my dV Sony camera (uses the small digital tapes) into mp4 files to save space on my drive.
I was able to render one AVI file to my hard drive but the next time it crashed and wont let me do it again, no matter what I tried. I also downloaded the latest patch.I did used the enhance mpeg rendering and seemed to work.
What video file format would give me the same video quality as the original AVI captured from my camera?Should I use mp4 or there is a better alternative since keeps crashing the program?
