Re: Weird 3D Artifacts
Hello dear Sweet Home 3D users.

I started using the app 2 months ago, and I loved it so far. After learning the basics, I started designing our possible new house, but my previous PC configuration was pretty poor for 3D viewing and rendering. So, last week I upgraded my PC to an AMD Radeon 6600XT/Ryzen 5700X configuration and also added 32 Gbyte Ram.

Now I'm just really sorry that I didn't run into this thread earlier. I had the same problem as many others here. With the new AMD Adrenalin drivers, neither the 2d nor 3d view works properly. The final render runs fine though. Perceived problems and renderings are available in the link bellow:

Unfortunately, I can't switch back to previous working driver versions, as there are other applications that won't run with outdated drivers, and running 32 bit applications is not an option, as I had to switch to 64 bit in December because low memory problems with the actual project size.

I have read that Emmanuel Puybaret does not have the right configuration for testing and several people here have also hit a wall with AMD support, so the solution to the problem and the timeframe is completely uncertain.

At the moment I'm completely stuck and can't move forward with my project. If the situation persists for months, I would be forced to find an alternative program or replace the 6600XT with an Nvidia RTX 3600, which I really don't want to do.


I'm wondering if some kind of crowd funding could be a solution. i.e.: could we pool the money for Emmanuel to buy let say a used 6500 XT card, which is around 130-150 Euro second hand, so he could test the cause of the problem and possibly find a solution? If there are 15 of us and we only put in 10 Euros each, we would transfer the money to Emmanuel to buy a card second hand.


I hope, we will see a quick solution.

All the best,

MH
