Pixelated in Perspective view.

[Anonymous]

Hello- is anyone one else having this problem, every time I go to my 3d perspective view, all my building materials are very pixelated.

Also, my control points for objects, walls, slabs do not line up with where my wall actually is.

I thought it was my graphics card but I just got that checked out and everything should be fine. I have attached a screen shot of my computer specs and I have also attached a screen shot of what I'm talking about in 3d perspective.

Any advice helps.

Thank you!

Joseph,
You did not attach computer specs.

Based on this description it sounds to me like a far away from origin issue. If your ARCHICAD model is situated miles away from origin (0,0,0) then you will run into the issues you have described.

My advice would be to move the model closer to origin which can be achieved by drawing a thick marquee around the entire building, then use the drag command to move the building to a new position.

(You may have to use File>Save and then quit ARCHICAD in order to reset the internal origin point to rectify the issue)

Kind regards,

Good call, Marcus! And a good reminder of why to model as close to origin as possible, something I've been telling new co-workers/interns for years now

By default textures us 0,0,0 as origin, so if your model element is so far away from the origin, the repeating of the texture starts to act up.
