Overexposure of light

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 11:45:41 GMT

Every now and then I get a strange effect of overexposure of light (see atached image) when rendering using LW engine (settings in next attached image) I'm also using the LW sky object and sun object

I normally just close the file then open it again, and it renders correctly. I'm assuming it's lack of virtual memory since it normally happens after I've been working on the model for a while without restarting AC. I'm wondering if anyone else experienced something similar.

Happened to me too, ussualy helped only closing the 3D window
and opening it again.
have absolutely no explanation: I wasn`t using any objects of my own,
and the project was small enough not to suspect the memory lack...

I had 2 sun objects, could that be the reason?

I have normally one sun object and one sky object.

and no I haven't placed any made objects that might contain the sun and sky objects in them, I've also learned not to do this the hard way!

with all due respect, you might want to double check.....

this new project I'm working on has no objects (massing model with only walls and slabs) every now and then this happens, I close the 3D window, render again and it's fine.
