"Yeah-- like I mentioned the caustics are accurate but could be annoying. Things that might alter it include changing the sun angle so it's not striking the chair's metal surfaces so directly, changing the roughness of the chair…"
"Here's the latest render using metallic materials.
The chrome now looks a lot better.
I do feel though that the reflected light on the back wall is too bright."
"Ah-- so that's a function of the material type. The standard material won't give you a mirror anymore. You need to change the material to metallic and you should get something more familiar. Use the Type popdown on the…"
"Pacing a mirror on the back wall (reflections = 1.0, noise = 0.0), you can see the difference more clearly (top image is nXt)."
"You can see from these two images that there is definitely something wrong with reflective surfaces.
It appears the light is being reflected, but not objects or textures.
In the nXt version (top image), the carpet texture is being reflected in the…"
"It's interesting-- overall the quality of this interior is very high for that short amount of processing, and may be acceptable for certain scenes. In this one, however, there are some reflective caustics that are taking longer to…"
"ARDECAL now works.
Here's the image after 10 minutes of rendering.

Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:( abrahamakim@outlook.com ) for the full details.
Have a wonderful day
Thanks God bless.
Mr.Abraham
Renderplus is running all of the AccuRender platforms now. McNeel still has Flamingo which is the Rhino plugin. Shouldn't be much confusion anymore. These guys are very customer oriented so they should be able to help. If you don't get a satisfactory answer let me know-- I'll talk to them.
I can't really do anything about the ADT/ACA approach to materials. It's Autodesk that makes this difficult, not me.
This should be a forum post-- not a private comment.
Talk to Renderplus is the Revit thing isn't working for you-- they should be able to refund your money or get you going.

The bottom of this page explains how to assign nXt materials to ACA (ADT) components. If it's still not working create a forum post and we'll deal with it. Lots of people have made this method work successfully.
