LightWorks settings & textures for TOP-VIEW rendering

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I need to prepare a top-view plan for an apartment. I have the dwg file from AutoCAD, received from the architect and I have to apply textures and effects on the elements to look similar like in attachemnt.
On the other hand I have tried to rebuild the plan with the archicad tools and elements but unfortunately when I tried to render, the final photo looks ... "freeky", worst effects quality and so on.

I will attach some previews to show you the dwg file and what I've tried to do. If you can help me please do it here or on PM. Thanks a lot !

P.S I use ArchiCAD 12 (USA Full for teamwork) on a Dual Core E5200 - 2.5ghz, 4GB RAM, Integrated Intel Graphics, OS Vista Ultimate

this is how it should look (shadows, colors, lights effects, etc)

You can use a variety of techniques to soften the light and color the shadows, but LightWorks in Archicad will NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER make that glowing radiosity. Never.

Get the Artlantis demo - two weeks, full function - for those soft shadows.
Leave extra at the bottom to cut off the logo.
