In perspective view, render display mode, I get my scene just how I like. Then when I click render and the render window opens and starts to do its things, the final output has the underside of my ceiling raft dark ? Is there a way to match what’s in the viewport to what the output gives when clicki…

You are sure you don’t have tweaks (accidental or not) to your Raytraced mode? Like for instance only white color for all objects.

anyone ? @DavidEranen @dan @theoutside

@BrianJ Can you tell what is going on here?

Rhino 6 for Mac will not calculate indirect illumination so light will not bounce back up to the ceiling raft just as it doesn’t lighten the underside of the chair. If you are on Rhino 6 for Mac, you can use the Raytraced display mode which will calculate indirect illumination. If you use that appro…

Hi @BrianJ , what I don’t get is why the viewport doesn’t match with the output. If render doesn’t calculate indirect lighting, the viewport shouldn’t be showing something else, this is plain wrong and confusing…

Hi Brian, just testing a small scene, switch to raytraced as suggested, now seeing something between a shaded/wireframe display mode ?? I’ve never had this before, screenshot attached and test file too. Mesh Screen 1 .3dm (5.1 MB) [Screenshot 2020-04-07 at 22.04.44]

Check your Display panel, I think you have surface edges enabled in Raytraced mode. You will probably also want to reset your Rendering panel to use the default settings. [image] jespizua: why the viewport doesn’t match with the output Because Raytraced mode uses a different technology (Cycl…

something funky going on I think, screenshots of view in rendered mode & RT, switch to raytraced seems like a grayscale mode ? never had this happen before :thinking: [Screenshot 2020-04-07 at 22.05.13] [Screenshot 2020-04-07 at 22.25.48]

[image] BrianJ: Because Raytraced mode uses a different technology (Cycles) versus the older Rhino Render. In Rhino 7 Rhino Render will (and already is in the WIP) be the same as Raytraced. For Rhino 6 this wasn’t possible yet so we shipped Raytraced mode as another rendering option Thanks, I…

Hi Nathan, yep, not sure what I did, but restored RT display mode default, looks right :+1: , cheers @BrianJ I’ll have a look at Render in the V7 WIP Mac

@BrianJ ok, just testing another scene in V7 WIP, set my perspective view in rendered mode, then clicked Render, window opens, half my viewport is missing and I have a black background ? [Screenshot 2020-04-07 at 22.49.58]
