sfatelier Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I have just upgraded to 2014 and when I try to update a viewport to a rendered drawing, all I get is a black image. I've done this hundreds of times before but now I'm baffled. Is there something different in 2014 vs. 2010? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Yes there are enormous differences between VW's 2010 & 2014. Unless I'm mistaken the entire RW's engine was changed, among other things? Still I am not sure why you'd get a black rendering, but someone here should know. Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The one thought I have is that is might have to do with needing HDRI or environmental lighting. This is one thing that changed. Try messing around in the Lighting Options tab of the OIP for the VP? Good Luck! Quote Link to comment
sfatelier Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Thanks for your help! I did find the culprit. The camera view was not taken in the correct view. Once I returned it to the TOP/PLAN view from TOP, everything rendered just fine. So, the process is still the same. Now I'll have to fiddle with all of the new adjustments! Quote Link to comment
