Hi - I'm having rendering problems with Revit Architecture 2011.  My renders always render a ground plane at ground level, despite me changing the ground plane in BOTH the render settings and the sun settings to my basement level. 

 

In my drawing - the shadows have correctly fallen at the basement level, but when i render - a blue plane always appears at ground level, blocking eveything below it.  I have attached a screenshot highlighting this - is there anything I'm missing?  Also, while creating this screenshot - I noticed another plane towards the top of my model (also highlighted) - This plane seems distorted as if looking through a conceptual mass, but I have thoroughly gone through the drawing and removed or hidden all instances, so I don't believe thats it - I'm not sure as to whether its a clue as to my real problem - but thought i'd mention it?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated - its driving me mad!

On the off chance anyone ever has this issue - I did eventually solve this problem: It turned out the phantom plane was caused by my dwg import file - that I'd hidden in that 3D view, but evidently still picked up on the render.  Deleting the dwg (which was simply a template to draw from) solved the problem.

 

Doh!
