I could use some expertise help with the Rendering and lighting process.

Attached is a rendering of a project of mine.

1. The windows still come out dark - I turned the pod lights to 320W and changed it to 3200K

2. The exterior lights don't shine although I didn't turn the lighting off...

3. How can I create a red sky or any other sky besides the typical blue/gray sky revit always reverts back to?

I changed the settings in graphic display options but when it comes to rendering it, it looks completely differnent. I have changed the time/date, adjusted exposure as well.

Any help and tips are greatly appreciated.

The problem is in your posts lights, change the material of the light glass and turn on "Self ilumination" like you can see and increase the Wattage 1000x when you are rendering an "Exterior with Sun and Artificial", if the lamp don't have any glass then create one....

About the "RED sky or any other" in the Render options > Backgroud > Style change the sky to image and select the sky you want...

thanks Typhoon...I played with the background image before but I thought the "gradient" tool would be somewhat useful for

this but guess not. I tried to increase the wattage of the interior lights as well as the outside lights and it did made a big differentce.

I'm still trying to make the rooms look more illuminated when I render the exterior -

BTW - I couldn't find those street lights you have...what's the name for those?

Again, thanks for the help.
