    Default Sky and sun

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi there.

    Is it possible to put an image of the sky in a 3D autocad project?
    If yes, is it compatible with sun variable?

    Thanks

    Yes, you can put an image of the sky in your 3D project as a background. Compatible how?

    Try the following:

    Sun Properties:

    Sun & Sky Illumination:
    http://exchange.autodesk.com/autocad...0acaf-7cfc.htm

    Render Exposure:
    http://exchange.autodesk.com/autocad...5d82a-7f1d.htm

    These three variables play a huge part in making an outside environment type of render.
