AccuRender nXt

advanced rendering for AutoCAD

Alright, I'm asking the question that seems to be a problem with a lot of people.  I am trying to get my glass to look as realistic as this picture (attached).  I am not sure if there are better ways to set up my model, but basically what I do is start with a floor plan and extrude the "glass" layer to the height I need it.  So I end up having an 1" thick object.  I am also trying to get my rendering to be as realistic as this image.  Any other pointers out there for additional items?

My company just purchased the full RPC license, so I better be set there as far as plants, etc. goes.

Use the glass template material.  Change the IOR to 1.55.  

Give it accurate lighting to reflect (a well-calibrated HDRi or Automatic Sky, for example) and refract.

How do we know a well calibrated HDRi map?

A good/brief tutorial on the effect use of HDRi files in NXT would be highly welcomed too.

"Found 'Textured Mesh Support' only works with obj and 3ds Files which do not contain PBR Maps. To 'obj' converted newer 3ds do not render in nXt :-("

OBJ Plant Issue - Diffuse Maps

Hi to anyone;maybe a similar issue as Mr.Holz announced recently, (PBR Texture question):-added a obj. plant via 'Textured Mesh Objects' widget-reassigned maps (materials showed up, but with no maps attached, (although mtl. files are  in the same folder as corresponding maps and obj files)-tried to render (see 'result')So my question is: Does anybody knew about how to handle Diffuse Maps in nXt, i suspect there is no interpretation of the UV-Coordinates?Any hints and help kindly appreciated!…See More

"Thanks for your kind words. Yes, all plants are generated with nxt plant-editor. I have used leaves from Marc Chaumier's plant library. (Download/ Content + Entourage)"

"Sorry, do not exactly how to do it right. If i sent you one or  sets, could you "compose" one material as an example? Maybe this is interesting for others too.."
