"Great! Looks good!"

"Ended up deleting the "can" material surrounding the lights. They're small enough that you don't notice. Here is the final render."
Rich Hart replied to Brittany Watson's discussion Continuous Recessed Lighting Issues
"I see that if I turn the soffit layer off, that those can lights on the right are working. So I assume the soffit is blocking the light.
Unfortunately, I'm not able to try moving the can lights down for some reason.
I can try looking into this…"

"I apologize, they are the smaller can lights on right soffit side of the arched ceiling, the bigger ones on the opposite side (left) are working correctly. They do work when the light source is pulled out of the can object or out of the soffit, so…"

"Unfortunately, the model was still just too large for my machine. After about 15 minutes I had to turn off the computer so that I could do something else while it was rendering..
Could you give me any idea of where the lights are that don't…"

"Just sent. Thank you for the quick response!"
Rich Hart replied to Brittany Watson's discussion Continuous Recessed Lighting Issues
"Can you send us a model where this is happening, to see if we can duplicate it here?
As small a model as possible would be appreciated.
You can use this link to send it to us:

Continuous Recessed Lighting Issues
Hi I use AutoCAD Architecture and have been having on going problems with a recessed can light block. I have completed 3 renderings now in which I have had to spend days trying to get my recessed lighting to work. Other lights work, and occasionally some of the can recessed lights will show up. I have exploded the block and added them individually, I have aimed the light and rotated it every which way, but most of the time nothing works. I have tested out the problem on my current rendering…See More

"Yes, the glass material translated as Refractive automatically."
"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.
I do have a slight concern that reflective surfaces seem rather dull.
This is particularly evident on the end frame of the desk and the base of the chair."
