Is your camera a PBR-RT camera? Denoise only applies in that type of view.

Trying to generate a foundation, per engineer specs
scottharris replied to davyjones's topic in General Q & A
I'm not sure if this is what you are after; I often build slab foundations using a stem wall (wall attached). The brick wall above has a brick ledge that then extends down to the footing. Foundation-Wall.calibz -
We have a free on-demand Residential Introductory course. That may be a good place to start.

In X16, a sample rate in the range of 250-350 should be fine.

Toe Kick Heater - Placement Below Cabinet in Toe Kick
scottharris replied to Drew-PRH's topic in General Q & A
Drew, take a look at changing the Y origin offset of your heater. The offset will move the object into the cabinet and then look correct in plan views. I also resized the depth. Toe Kick Heater2.calibz- 2 replies

Upgrade to X16 creating washed out/over exposed renderings
scottharris replied to crossandclark's topic in General Q & A
For a Standard render view, here are a few settings you might consider adjusting; you can see this in an updated plan attached; see the Camera “Kitchen – Std” -create a light set for only the lights you want on; in your example I created a ‘kitchen’ light set. The more lights the brighter and slower your scene will be since it’s an open design -turn off reflections – they can be expensive and only for mirrors -I changed the lights from point lights to spot lights; and adjusted the lumens from 1200 to 850 – you could go lower. I made a few other light adjustments on your can lights; you can open one and review. -I adjusted the ambient light from 100 to 20 In one of the attached examples, there’s a .25 line under ‘hand drawn lines on top’ setting Note, in the plan you attached, there are several missing materials, so, it probably will not look as good as your original plan Lighting sample2.zip -

Do you have any example of what you are looking for? On page 8 of the pdf for this Saguaro sample, is a ceiling plan https://cloud.chiefarchitect.com/1/samples/projects/saguaro/saguaro.pdf -

Can you post a plan with a saved camera so we can look at your settings? -
CHIEF X14 FREEZING WHEN I PAN THE SCREEN ON LAYOUT

You might verify you have the latest video driver. If that does not solve it, reach out to our tech support group to help troubleshoot.- 1 reply

This sounds like a possible memory leak. There have been a number of updates since X15. You might see if this happens in X16.2

You might try the Chief Architect Substance Tile Builder. Here's a link to learn more

David, it seems to work for me. Verify in your preferences your computer supports 'hardware ray tracing'. Otherwise, give our support group a call. -

Did you try this setting in PBR?
