Wobbly reflections in Cinerender

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 09:37:43 GMT

Hi,

We are having issues wiht reflections in Cinerender (ArchiCAD 21).
As you can see from the attachment, the reflections are coming out wobbly, instead of in straight lines as per the original subject.
We are using the standard material from the catalogue, 'Glass - Clear Fast' and using the 'Outdoor Daylight Final' scene with all standard settings except lights turned on to 130%.
No idea why the reflections are coming out wobbly though. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help.

There is a bump channel on the standard glass surface, which is causing this. You can turn this off.

Glad to help, took me a few hours to figure this out back with ArchiCAD18 and first rendering with cinerender

You might want to try to dial back the preset settings a bit, if you find that final render is taking a very long time.
