Realistic interior render

[ali ba]

Hi all,

when i want to do a realistic interior render it will not do anything on any of the renderworks style. It will do a final quality but nothing with the others.

help please

When you say it does nothing, it finishes the render and you see solid black or white, or does it always show wireframe?

Does the same thing occur when you render in a viewport?

Keep in mind the Realistic Interior/Exterior modes will take significantly longer than regular Final Quality.

Screen shots of "nothing" would be helpful.

Is there activity in the progress bar at the bottom right of your VW window? It can take time.

Lastly, add a signature with your computer and program version details.

Hi,

normally the bar shows it doing something at the bottom but it just stays as a wireframe no activity at all. Im wondering is this because i have updated quick time as a message came up that it may not work with 2012 and may have to unitsall and reinstall the previous version?

cheers

QT is really unlikely to be the problem with Renderworks modes.

That error message will pop up for any version of QuickTime that doesn't match the installed version, but I haven't needed to have someone use an older version of QT since around Vectorworks 12.5/2008.

Make sure to close Vectorworks and install the last patch released for Vectorworks 2012:

If you already have it installed and the same problem is occurring, send tech@vectorworks.net the following:

along with a link to this thread and we can have a look.
