Hi

I have rendered this in Lightworks and would like some advice on how to improve this render.
It will ultimately become a billboard on site. It is still missing some louvers on those balconies and i will eventually photoshop it into the site, so ignore the pavement and the road.

For example how would I be able to get an environment into the windows facing the street? I usually do this in photoshop manually but maybe there is an answer?

THanks a lot!!

What's your approach of getting an ArchiCAD model into Maxwell?

Is it possible to get the texture mapping with it?

1. At the moment MW only works through a 3rd party app. so i am using 3ds into MAX7.
2. This will change as soon as the Beta is released with its own GUI.
3. I have not figured out how to export from AC into MW without loosing the textures.

I think it is still a bit clumsy, but the renderings are great fun.

Since you can get textures from ArchiCAD into 3ds max, I think you might be able to get them into Maxwell as well.
You have to be aware that the 3ds file format only supports 8.3 DOS filenames, so that might be one of the issues here.
