rodneyk123 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 (edited) When I use any camera to render 3D views I get a hazy or fuzzy look at the top corners of the room. It distorts the crown molding on the cabinets too. Also, the recessed lighting is fuzzy and glaring. I have tried to reduce the lighting watts and the glaring is still there. So I have 2 problem - glaring lights and hazy corners. I have the best of graphic software and a high quality computer. I just purchase the 2018 professional home designer. My previous 2014 professional handled rendering very well. I hope someone knows the answer. I have an Envy and Gforce 750 all very much able to handlethis program.

rodneyk123 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 I am using 2018 Home Designer Professional. I have a wonderfully powerful computer and Gforce 750 all up to date. I reset the Ambient Occlusion settings starting at 10 to 15 %, This did not have any effect on the blurred (hazy)corners and the lighting is also blurred. I have tried to change the wattage of the bulbs in the recessed lighting and this did not help. I did remove all ceiling lighting and yes I got Less< blurring (hazy) corners, trim etc. Here is a pic.

solver Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Did you close and reopen your camera view? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodneyk123 Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 I always close the camera view then retake new view. In each new view the blurring is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 See if you have this setting. It's new in the latest version of Chief, may also be in Pro. Here is Ambient Occlusion at 12. And at 92. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodneyk123 Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Ambient Occlusion setting at 12 has helped. I also turning off the bloom box, took away the blaring ceiling lights. I also made the pendant lights brighter (150 watt). Thank you Eric for your focused help. New Pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Looks much better. Don't know why the software ships with these settings. It's the first thing people complain about and it's not clear what needs to be changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodneyk123 Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Ambient Occlusion at 12% , unchecked bloom and checked edge smoothing now save as default by going to Edit>Default>Camera general. The camera view is now defaulted to these setting. So perfect. I am pleased with my renderings now. Thank to Eric's help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
