  1. Here are some non-360 pano shots of the same room using the same Physically Based Rendering settings as above. They are saved at 3000 x 1534 at 600 dpi as a .png file just using the export command. When I did a raytrace on these before, it took about 8 hours to get about 15 passes due to the details and lights. These took about 90 seconds to save. Huge time savings, especially if you want to show clients a few different options quickly.
  2. Here is the same 360 pano in the Chief 360 Panoramic Viewer. View in Chief Architect’s 360° Panorama Viewer.
  3. Yes. 8192 X 4096 was the setting I used. I then uploaded the 360 image to sky.easypano.com. When you upload the file to the Chief Cloud to view in their viewer, it distorts the image directly above and below the camera. www.sky.easypano.com is free to use.
  4. The only real changes I made to the default was to turn off Bloom and reduce the Ambient Occlusion to about 60%. I have found that the sunlight is way too bright until I reduce it down to about 2000 Lux. In some scenes, I have had to reduce it down to as low as 500 lux. Checking the "Improve Lighting Quality" box in the Rendering Technique Options DBX makes a big difference in getting rid of the green tint. Remember to also up the number of lights in the scene to make sure all of the lights you have on show up. The Default is to just show 8 lights.
  5. Here is a 360 panoramic view of an office utilizing only Chief Architect X10 using the Physically Based Rendering feature. It took about 90 seconds to render this to 360 pano. http://sky.easypano.com/panoramic-images/Panoramic-Image-118608.html
  6. This home was designed and raytraced in Chief. I then used a free program called FotoSketcher to give it the watercolor effect. Thanks for the comment!
