I am currently working on a rather large project, and in one of my camera views when I am zoom to fit it all on screen my trees do not render. Altho when I zoom in a region raytrace my trees show perfectly. It is very strange

I don't use the renderer in Revit, but from what I remember, you need to tell Revit what part you want rendered which I believe is what you have done. I don't think you can just click render and have it appear. You need to tell it what to render.

 

When you get frustrated with the renderer, there are free programs out on the internet that i feel does a better job. Accurender has some good points to it, but just doesn't cut the mustard when it comes to good looking stuff.

 

I have seen some excellent renderings though, just not good enough in my book. Didn't know if this would help you decide whether the rendering would be worth your time in revit.

What size is your scene and what DPI have you set?  There is a 10,000 pixel limitation to Revit renderings.

Also, are you using the Accurender plants?  If yes, they are very heavy objects to render.  You are better off using RPC plant material from www.archvision.com

I wouldn't go outside of Revit to render until you have fully explored what is possible within Revit.  Most people have a hard time with rendering in any program.  Without proper scene setup, materials and lighting no rendering engine can do produce a decent rendering.

If you do go external to Revit, then Autodesk Viz is the first logical choice as it understands Revit's material settings.  Viz however is not cheap $2000 +/- and it is very complex.

well I have ADT 2007 & Viz. My render is 12"x7/5" at 600 dpi. They have rendered fine in the past. I just installed a ATI FireGL V7200 with recommended drivers and boosted another gig of ram on my dual 3 gig processor machine. From what I've seen done by other people this should be having no problems. My file size is about 70 MB on a 15 acre site with a 400,000 sq. ft building. I recently rendered 5 exhibits flawlessly. I am baffled.
