This engine enables you to create very high-quality, highly realistic images, with more exact texture and light reproduction than the other engines.

CineRender Engine: This renderer is based on Maxon Cinema 4D version 14 and incorporates most of the parameters of the Cinema4D renderer.

Note: You cannot use a PhotoRendering Scene in any version of ArchiCAD earlier than ArchiCAD 18.ĪrchiCAD 18 comes with the following built-in rendering engines.

(Scene files have the extension “renderingscene”.) Using the Select and Manage dialog box to organize organized into folders, and to export/import Scene files among different ArchiCADs. Also, when saving a 3D view, you can save any named Scene as part of its View Settings (in the 3D Only panel of View Settings).

However, a Rendering’s output Size is not stored as part of the Scene.īefore closing a project, make sure you store any customized Scene settings under a new name if you wish to reapply its settings later.

Thus, you will be able to use the scene in a variety of contexts, regardless of size.Ī Rendering Scene is a set of predefined Rendering Settings that can be stored and reapplied using the Select and Manage Scenes dialog box.įor each Rendering engine, ArchiCAD’s factory template provides one or more predefined Scenes. The Size parameters will not be saved as part of the Rendering Scene.You can save and manage your scenes in folders, so you can re-use them easily in subsequent renderings and export/import them among different projects.įor CineRender’s Basic settings: see Create a Rendering with CineRender’s Basic Settings, below.įor details on other engine-specific settings: see PhotoRendering Settings.
