its good now. I don't know what i did but its been going on all morning.. now its fixed .. must be one wrong access and off it went thanks for your help I appreciate it. Now i can continue with the completion Cheers Levina

what happened to me I wonder.. I still can't see it is it, maybe because of those 3 tress what are they for and how do I get out of it

its a mess quantum dr.plan

I am creating a walk out basement not just for the back but for the entire lower level. I am following the Video on walk out basements but when I add the terrain on Floor 0 it does not show .. it does not show anywhere, and those 3 trees are in my window constantly = very irritating. any assistance is welcomed Levina

OH .. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PLAN. THANK YOU

Thank you this info.. I have CA 11 so I would have been trying and trying to get the results that Scott has achieved but I do thank him for his input and have his answer saved to my computer. When I can afford the upgrade I will have a go to his instructions. Appreciate all your replies Cheers Levina

WOW! Thanks soo much, great info for me to follow. trying to go thru all the videos and instructions can be a bit confusing but you've simplified it THANKS AGAIN !

thanks my PBR EXTERIOR RENDERINGS ARE NOT GOOD

When I passes and or time for some reason the program does not show me how much time or passes have elapsed. I can let it ray trace overnight - so I am assuming the longer it ray traces the "sparkles" disappear . I though it might have something to do with the "index of refraction" which I have no idea what it means and can't seem to get explanation from the knowledge base except for a small mention. it is set at 1.5 but that's as much as I know about it I will let it run but that takes up a lot of time when i have several projects going at the same time Thanks for your reply Levina

When ray tracing - these sparkles appear in the glass. Is it something in my ray trace options that I am either doing or not doing? Cheers Levina

Thank you . Followed your instructions to the T and it's working perfectly

In the renovation redesign I am doing - the clients wants the floor joists from the second level to be seen from the main level. In framing mode I can see the floor joists but in standard mode I cant....

I am sending the proposed floor plans to the engineer and see what he comes back with. All your replies have given me solutions that could be implemented based on engineers response and of course the clients input as he want the real wood .. but things change due to structural challenges See how it goes Thank you all for your replies.. This forum is really resourceful and so many qualified members Thanks again

swapping bedroom for bathroom is an option but not one the client will be very happy about for sure, Its all about the ocean view

I will check with engineer and they are part of exposed beams on main floor for open concept

Hi I an redesigning a house that has basement , main floor and upper level. Rough measurements 29 W x 24 D Attached is the engineering structural beams required for the open concept main floor plan . The beams in the basement are 10" high 10" deep (basement will not be developed). Beams for second floor are 8" high x 8" deep My issue is the stairs. where/how do I place them without interfering with the support beams. The floor plan was roughly designed before we had the engineering drawing. Now I have to reconfigure for the stairs. that's my problem. (The upper level is smaller than the lower level as result of a new add on) Any suggestions are welcome.. Thanks Levina 3 FLOOR LEVELS.pdf

Hi I am designing the interior of a 30 x 24 ft 2 level house ( 8ft ceilings ) open concept on main floor ( with separate laundry and powder rooms.) I want to maximize the main floor living space that will have the dining area, kitchen with island plus entertaining area, tv etc. am wondering how to increase the rise angle of the stairs to the upper level. Thanks in advance Levina

thanks

Hi I'm attaching a drawing of the rear of the house I'm rendering but I'm not sure how to slop the terrain. Any imput will be helpful .. I've done walk out basements before but not sure how to approach this Thanks Levina

Hi I am not able to see the time schedule moving on my ray trace.. the task bar shows for adjusting materials etc. and building, but not for ray trace I've tried resetting to defaults but still nothing appears. (ie) can't see from 0 - 30 passes or 45 min into an hour, etc is this something that can be fixed?? I know it's maybe not necessary but I like checking the timing to see how long it takes to get the ray trace results I'm looking for on each area of the project. Thanks in advance

THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH ! I AM EXPERIMENTING WITH IT NOW

see attached screenshot

HI I have been trying to determine exactly what INDEX OF REFRACTION means in exterior ray trace view. I see various options for glass but not sure if this is something I need to adjust or go with what the system has default. If the glass is adjusted does it make any difference to the window reflection Thanks Levina

I don't know what happened or why , but I was changing my terrain perimeter and suddenly this blue circle appeared and my program froze - can't close it or save it - If I Leave it long enough will it work it way around and let me work on my project. I'm afraid to shut down my computer in case I loose what I have, I checked out the error encounters on CHief but none if it works if I cant access the edits or saves or anything else Has anyone encountered this issue? Thanks in advance Levina
