By "large", I didn't mean "file size" but "house size" (in a length unit)

White Space Between Grass & Sky Hey Guys & Girls. Hoping you can help with this one. I almost have my house design close to done, but can't figure out how to fill in that white space between the ground and the sky. When I do my video, I'd like to be able to show an outside view, but not with that white space there. Any tips and tricks would really be appreciated. |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky I really don't understand how this could happen in recent versions of Sweet Home 3D. What version do you use? ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky I'm using version 3.5 Java web start Java version 1.6.0_29. I made a 30 second (low quality) video to show what I'm talking about. I don't think I can attach it here on this forum so have e-mailed it to you instead. When I take the view right down to the ground, it helps somewhat, but this isn't an angle I want to use. An e-mail from TranquilityLodge in your inbox is from me. I hope you can help! |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky The zone shown around the garden is white because you didn't change the ground color or texture in the 3D view modification dialog box. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky Shaun, it's really difficult to say without any image or file. Nothing changed on that side between version 3.5 and 3.6. Can you try with versions 3.5 again? Or send me your file? ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky hi emmanuel I sent you the file you requested, sorry to be a pain, its just that your program is great and i love using it, maybe this will fix something that is wrong. one thing i have noticed is that the bigger the file gets the bigger the white line gets. also maybe you misunderstood me in the post, it did the same thing in java exec 3.5, not only in 3.6. cheers shaun. |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky hi emmanuel hope you are well. i downloaded sweet home 3d ver 3.6 for windows on my daughters computer, which is running windows xp and exported my file to it, rendered a portion of the video and unfortunately for me no white line, this at least means that there is no problems with the file. in your opinion do you feel that it might be a windows 7 issue, or that in my pursuit for speedier rendering using java exec with 10 gig allocated to the program is the problem. sorry to continue to bother you with this request, its just that with the size of the files that i end up with after i have completed the whole house would take days to render the video in the standard windows version and thus leave sh3d useless to me. this would be a great dissapointment as your program is top notch. cheers shaun. |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky I don't think allocating more memory would make a difference in your case. 10 GB is already a lot, and your model should work perfectly with less than 2 GB. Did you check if an update is available for the video card driver of your computer? ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky hi emmanuel hope you well. the hp 8200 elite that i use does not come with a dedicated graphics card, but rather uses a page file for graphics, so could not update drivers for it. subsequent to our discussion i installed a nvidea geforce 640, 2 gig dedicated card and it made no difference, still the white line. did some experiments on the four different video levels though, and found that on level 1 and 2 i get white line, but on 3 and 4 no white line, i am stumped, this one is for clever people like yourself to solve, please help!!! cheers shuan. |

Re: White Space Between Grass & Sky Sad to read your attempts didn't fix your issue. The 2 first and the 2 last quality levels are computed in a completely different way, and actually, the 2 best levels don't use the graphics card. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |
