StepOneDesign Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Hi all, Not techy - so my apologies in advance. My PBR function is not working. Got more hard drive space on my computer, and since then, it is not working. Not sure if this is connected or not? Any easy fix that I am missing?

TheKitchenAbode Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 What exactly is not working when you try to PBR. Does the camera open? Missing materials or textures? Blank screen? Changing the drive should have no impact on PBR unless your catalog files/textures are not in the proper folder. This however would also affect other camera views, not just PBR.

StepOneDesign Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Thanks for responding! It just looks like the standard view. Not enhanced. All the finishes are appearing, just not "rendering". Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StepOneDesign Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Camera opens, other options such as paint, tech open up as they should. Just not the Physically based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKitchenAbode Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Under Preferences, Render, Troubleshooting, make sure Use Global Illumination is checked. If this is off then things will look like a standard camera view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StepOneDesign Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Yowza. It worked. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Methinks that when I moved from Beta to full 12 (duh that was the other thing I did), that somehow this turned off? Little glitch? Everyday is a new day with Chief - but wow do I like the PBR. Great way to blow peoples socks off - ha ha. Can you tell, do you use all three options under Troubleshooting? Again - million thanks. Would have taken me forever to find that!

TheKitchenAbode Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Pleased it worked out. That's the only item in troubleshooting, the Use Enhanced Lighting should be checked but the box will be greyed out. Also make sure in the actual PBR Rendering Technique DBX that Improve Light Quality is checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StepOneDesign Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 So YOU DON'T USE "Use Global Illumination" or "Texture Compression"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKitchenAbode Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 No problem, always have Global Illumination checked. I've never have had Texture Compression checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
