johngow Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 On most exterior nighttime ray trace I'm getting unwanted light reflected in some areas. Light appears near corbels or brackets and where the soffit on a gable rake comes down to a corner on top of a lower roof. I've tried lowering reflectivity of surfaces, but they still appear. I also get it on interior images above wall cabinets or high surfaces against walls. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 The usual suspects for light bleed are No Roof or no Foundation ( true Floor ) built in the Model , not sure what you have there ? I have also seen in a Forum Plan last week where some had used Interior Walls for exterior Walls light bleeding around Cabinets and at the Fridge. Using the Correct Wall Type fixed that issue.... Post the Plan if you want Others to Help.... Also, it's good to have your Forum Signature filled in, especially with the Software Version, and of course a real Name is nice too ..............see mine below in Blue for how to do that. If you don't see my Signature then you have them turned off for the Forum so you need to Toggle it on in UserName>Account >Signatures...... go to the Upper RH Corner of Forum Window. M.

Thank you again If you can post the .plan file ( make sure plan isn't open in CA 1st ) , that is always the best way to get good answers here, I and others are always willing to help if they can thoguh I wouldn't say I am a RT specialist, I am also using PBR more and more in CA X10 as it is usually "good enough" M.
