On something like a railing you can always check that it is a partition wall in the wall dbx and that can make it disappear. I'm guessing you have something else going on and I wouldn't make this my go to method but it can fix your problem.

Good renderings come down to a few basic things. Backdrop, light settings, and materials that you use. Every room will take a little different settings depending on your light sources. There is a great Chief YouTube video that I used to get started. Find a backdrop that doesn't add colors to your renderings that you don't want. Create a light set so that the lights are on in the rooms you are trying to show. I usually set my Sun on interior shots between 500 and 2500 and adjust the sun angle to get the shadows I want. Next set up your rendering settings. Start with a backdrop intensity of 1000. I usually start with an exposure of around .30 then adjust to get the result I am looking for. The bottom settings I usually start with the settings of 0, 30, 25. These setting will get you close then start making adjustments from there. Once again, materials can make a huge difference in how your renderings turn out. I am attaching a link to a video series chief put out that can really help you get started. Good luck and just keep working at it. https://youtu.be/dr-OVDo2kmI?si=Wrw1ma5Dll1kqAR3

I would suggest Rene Rabbitt at rabbittdesigns.net or Tim Schrock. They both do one on one training and are extremely talented. Tim you can find on Facebook. He is on most of the chief pages.

Just add that as a room as well as add a callout and show it on your framing plan. Currently doing something similar where I need to add another furnace and water heater above the garage. Mine will be different than yours but it sounds like you will either need to do an energy heal or use a ledger board and hang your floor joist. I will be doing the first option. If your still struggling reach out to me end of day Monday and I will have my room drawn in and could do a quick video call to show you how I'm going to do it. However, I never know what the structural engineer will say so could end up with something completely different before it's done. I've had both methods pass on previous projects.

Garage next to Daylight Basement - Which Floor?
aereed82 replied to BenLondon's topic in General Q & A
I've just started putting my basement floor on floor 1 instead of floor zero. Saving zero for my foundations. I believe if you do that it will help your situation. I'm working on a plan now that has a toy garage in the walkout area that i did the way your doing it. It took a lot of tweaks to get it how I wanted it doing it that way. -
Need advice on how to do this the easiest way possible
aereed82 replied to DH7777's topic in General Q & A
Start by saving as a new plan file then Edit Edit area All floors Copy hold position Drag desired length or use point to point move. Then go through the clean up process. -
I might be interested. Send me an email and we can line up a call. Also include any ideas you have on roof styles the customer likes. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, Anthony Reed Reed Home Designs 913-938-3695 Anthony@reedhomedesigns.net

Thank you. No, not a ton of time. As mentioned, materials do make a big difference but you will also get to where you can set up default camera settings so you only have to make small changes from room to room. Getting your library organized and using tags really speeds up the process for finding the right material. The more you do it the faster you will get. I've learned so much from other users who are amazing at renderings. Rene Rabbitt is one of the masters at this. I've learned a ton from him off discord.

I find that RTRT gives the client the best feel of what their house is going to look and feel like. The only challenge can be just having the graphics card to keep up with it even at a low sample rate when presenting live to a customer. I don't put as much detail in my designs as many of the very talented people on here do, but I try to put just enough in to give them a picture of what their home is going to feel like. I personally like PC and the capabilities that come with it. However, I have been told that very soon MAC users will have most if not all the same features we have with PC when it comes to rendering. This is an example of what I do for basic renderings.
