Dave in Prefrences>Render you have to uncheck everything under Troubleshooting, that did the trick.

Just be aware that unchecking these will disengage certain rendering features. The new PBR Camera will not function correctly without Global Illumination being active. Those weird rings must be due to some other anomaly. Suggest posting that plan to see if we can spot what's going on.

It was out of the box template, I just drew a few walls in it and used the camera.

 

That may be so, but your preferences and default settings will be different from ours. Posting your plan with the problem would allow for some level of comparison. Also, the rings could be related to the video card.

 

The issue with the crown is most likely related to the light settings, camera settings and the 3D view settings. There are more options in X10 than X9 so some tweaking may be required.

Thanks Greg - The rings I believe are related to X10's modified rendering method, I've seen this happen in some circumstance. Seems to vary depending upon the lights. For the disappearing crown you need to have some level of ambient occlusion, for a standard 3D camera view I usually have the slider set between 40% - 60%.

That didn't help Graham, it seems that the only issue is with the recessed lighting, puck lighting (I put one on the ceiling), cable lighting, etc from the core catalog library, any other lights work fine.

 Which recessed can did you use? I used the 4" one and it was fine. Try reducing the cut-off angle, the 4" and 6" ones are at 175 degrees, see if say 90 degrees make a difference.

I have seen this circle phenomena reported before , about a month ago, it is an Ambient Occlusion issue and is apparently seen on Older AMD VideoCards , Chief said they were looking into it...

not sure if AMD is the issue here though ? or perhaps the Final release has another new Issue?

 

you don't have a Signature Greg? so not sure what you are using or can't I see it?  see mine for a how too if you don't have one.....

Thanks for looking into this guys. I have latest AMD driver and it has to be something with CA that causing this, never had this issue, and I'm using a more powerful renderer with SketchUp and with ambient occlusion turned on I never seen anything like it. 

I hope they figure this out, I will shut that thing off until they do.

Thanks again!

All all of them make the molding disapair, even if I put them in the middle of the room or shut them off the molding is gone. Same with cable track lighting, every other track light works fine and I tried all that changing the angle and everything nothing helpes It has to be a bug with the lights because if it was my pc it would affect other lights also-I guess

I am not sure what you are doing right now but the posted plan above does not have Crown molding Defined in the Room>Moldings Tab hence you don't have any.....

 

shows for me as soon as I add it....  33.thumb.JPG.f0458be23500b172167013bb373e4581.JPG are you saying it turns off if you add a few recessed cans?

The plan is yours , I just turn the Crown on and dropped 3 6" Cans from the Chief Library into it ....I was having issues earlier today with some Cans I had in my User Library not working correctly especially on a Vaulted/Sloped ceiling , so I tried Chief's X10 Library ones and they worked in my plan fine too.

 

I just resaved your plan and posted it back with those two things done.....

Mick, Thanks!

I think the issue is the crown is still there when you drop the light the crown blends with the ceiling color and if I zoom in close and move the light closer to the edge of the ceiling I can barely see the crown. 

1st picture no light at all.

2nd Pic light dropped inside the room

3d picture light moved closer to the molding, you can see the crown but barely

4th Picture same as 3d, only molding color changed to Cherry.

On some plans, you can see better, like the sample you posted. If I remove the lights from that plan and re-add them they will work fine, you can see the molding but not as good as you would like (profile wise, it gets to flat)

I don't think it's my video card, I do have AMD and keep the drivers updated, and I use rendering in SketchUp much more powerful engines than in CA and I don't have any issues, especially with the bullseye effect, speaking of which, if you watch latest YouTube video they did on the Kitchen Design, she has the same bullseye effect.
