LW won't render but the background color

[Anonymous]

Hi there!

I am doing a rendering of my project and it would not render it in LW but the background color I chose like the grays or the clouds. Is it too big of a file for LW to render? Please advise.

Thanks

How long is a piece of string?

If you are working in ArchiCAD 10, you can ask it to give you polygon count, but there's no absolute limit that I know of.

Can you make it render with the internal engine?
Can you make it show up in the 3D window?

I suspect that you have a marquee or element outside the view erroneously selected when you mean to have the entire model rendered. Ask it for a parallel view and see if the elemet shows up.

This blank screen thing DOES happen to me on occasion. I just keep trying and it finally works.

Thanks for your reply.

I am using AC9 and it opens in 3D window. It also renders with internal engine but not lightworks. Please advise.

Thanks.
