Archicad 12 Sketch Render and Lamps W/ Night renderings

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 10:16:58 GMT

I'm trying to see if it is possible to use the sketch rendering engine and do an interior night time rendering using lamp objects exclusively as the light source. Any tips? Is it possible?

Thank you,

Hi,

If you want to have true lighting effects on the sources as well as walls, etc.. then there is only one way I know of doing this with a Sketch effect. The Sketch Render in ArchiCAD cannot do it. I don't know of a way that it can make the light sources work. But, you could render it in the Internal or Lightworks Engines, and then use this software to convert it to a sketch:

It can do both Black&White as well as color. It's a nice tool to have anyway. Is available as both a plugin for Photoshop or a stand-alone tool.

I'm sure there are other methods too with 3rd party software, but not solely ArchiCAD.

Best,
Foster
