Of course and ahead of time thank you honestly. The plan is 135mb...(sorry about that). Sent.

I did use final view with shadows, the sun angle in all 3 was facing into the room, so maybe because the view is up close the shadows ended up being behind the camera. I'll be honest, I'm not satisfied meaning I was hoping to have gotten even more crisp final views, and greater realism (considering all objects were modified meaning the materials, bump maps and so on and so forth. I get this feeling that I'm close to realizing what is my mistake, but at the moment I can't yet put my finger on it.

So, here are three images after the tutorials. One of them is just ray-traced without mods, the 2nd is with modified saturation and stuff, the third is the 2nd plus bloom. Any thoughts tips or tricks?

Off the top of my head: 1) graphics card issue (driver or the card itself) 2) Photonmapping is off, or material definitions are wrong?

Eric Thank you very much for the link, tomorrow going to take the time and have a look, thanks for your help!

No offense taken; and I'm a he for further reference. Could they be better I think so of course. As mentioned, question is what to do modify in the trace themselves to make it better and more realistic. As for interior decorating and all, well that's a very subjective matter, one man's trash is another man's treasure. I think the key point is as was mentioned, what can be modified in the trace settings/lighting/materials that could produce better results.

The project focuses around developing a modern home with mixed interiors on the outskirts of Moscow.

I personally love Chief, sure the raytraces sometimes can take a few hours for 100 passes, not to mention if the materials are all imported and created by me (makes the full plan quite big and slows it down)...but sometimes if I want to add some quick realism I dip into a simple free program, and add a bit realism, a few examples will be included. Any tips are always welcome; some clients are really picky and want almost a picture perfect image as if it was real...others realize that this is enough and know that the final result once its all built will beat all expectations.

Anytime, hopefully you find what you're looking for.

@Larry (humblechief), sorry didn't realize you are one and the same; again thanks for the tip, yeah not sure why it threw the terrain on the 3rd instead of the 2nd but I'm working on it. You're right, gotta muscle through it and keep trying to get it right. Sadly I know I made a few mistakes with the building itself because I was in a hurry to give a demonstration of the potential outcome, so soon enough I'll take the time and build it back up from the beginning and make sure everything is right this time (hopefully the terrain will play again then). @Chopsaw: I checked the post, I'm going to check whether or not I have the same issue; sadly in that post for some reason the two pictures don't load at all for me, your screenshot does whilst the poster's photo's don't..

Also you could try looking for a used desktop that's fully stocked, naturally people tend to sell them off due to whatever problems...

My advice for laptop: Try finding an alienware laptop 18 inches (used); just have somebody with proper IT skills run a few tests to make sure the graphics card is still alive; in most cases I think you could find a decent used alienware or asus rog laptop for around 500-750$. It'll be powerful enough with enough ram and all to do the field work. As for a desktop at 1500$, your best bet is finding a buddy whose good with tech to put one together for you, sites like newegg and others have discounts here and there from time to time and you could put together a decent machine... I personally spent 4,000 $ on my system (desktop). 34 inch LG um95 screen (lots of work space), but you could get 2 dell full hd monitors, or one larger one like a benq. As for processor I put in a i7 5930k 6 core monster, they should have some discounts somewhere, asus v rampage motherboard, 32gb ddr4 ram, 2 ssd's at 256gb samsung 850's, and one 3tb for other stuff. Graphics card, go with a Asus strix geforce 980 it'll do the job on all fronts. You can mix and choose, as somebody previously said go for powerful processor and video card, the rest you can put together here n there. https://www.amazon.com/BenQ-BL3200PT-Designer-Monitor-Animation/dp/B00ITORMNM benq was my #2 choice after the LG.

So yeah the video helped in many ways, yet regardless of how I play around with the values and expand or resize the elevation areas, I still get 2 issues: 1) The sauna window is always covered by terrain, regardless of what I do (whilst the spa doors are open) 2) The terrain literally grows into the SPA area.... Any suggestions? Maybe the guy from the video could take a look at it? Attaching a view of what is happening.

HumbleChief! Thank you so so much for the quick reply! I'll definitely give this tutorial a look and hope it'll work out, thanks for the help again. Truly love how in chief so many are willing to help each other!

Hey All! So, I rarely had to use terrain modification tools (therefore never bothered to learn them ), seeing as most customers had flat landscapes. So in this situation, the plan is attached, I have the following issue: right below the motor court, leading to the summer 'pool house', there should be a lowered terrain; the idea is that when owners leave the spa from the underground floor, they walk out into a nice garden type pit (landscapers will make it beautiful), and can walk up the stairs to the bbq pool house, also in this pit there will be tanning beds and couches to relax in the summers. I'd like to hear some suggestions as to how I can modify the terrain in a way that all windows of the underground spa are visible, and work with that area to create stairs and lounge zone. If there is a video tutorial then please point me to it, any help will be greatly appreciated!! frunze6.plan
