"Make sure ENABLEPROGRESSIVEUPDATE is 0 (it should be).
The big one is to make sure you are assigning materials to ACA components. There used to be some nice documentation on this but it appears to be gone-- I'll see if I can drum…"

Rendering in greyscale only
I have downloaded a 30 day trial of Accurender as I wish to get back in to it after a 'render break'. Is there a restriction on the 30 day trial as objects drawn in Architecture appear to have the materials mapped when in model space but only render in greyscale.Other 3D objects such as 3D solids render. Is there a setting that I am missing or is this disabled in the trial version.Thanks in anticipation of a response.See More

"George, this is the path tracer engine. Do you have another recommendation? I am still figuring out materials. I will note that for future renders."

"Is this done with hybrid render engine or the basic one?Comment not about rendering: Stone material is visibly repeating and I thing also out of scale (too big). Looks more like wallpaper, as there are windows and the wall is too thin to be made of…"
Roy Hirshkowitz replied to Peter Milner's discussion obj files"Hmmm... I'll take a look at this in nXt for AutoCAD when I get a chance.. it should work.
I doubt if the specular maps will work-- I don't think the textured meshes use standard materials. You are reminding me of why I need to…"
George Ioannidis replied to Peter Milner's discussion obj files"Peter, I was able to ad all specular and bump maps in Blender right, but for some reason nXt isn't recognizing it at all. The only texture it passes through is the main diffuse map.I am thinking of modifying the basic material (with only…"
