Some materials black, render and realistic view

Hi, I am trying to apply certain materials especially the better quality ones. However when I view them in the realistic view or render they completely black with a 'sheen' of the colour showing. I assume this is a lighting issue I want to be able to do lots of components and don't want to be changing lighting settings all the time.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Dan

 

I am using AutoCad 2020 - Student Version

Please upload the dwg-file with the camera view set to current which you try to render.

If it's a lightning issue and your scene does not have enough illumination available then "not changing the settings" will not bring you to your goal.

Thanks for this, it works when I render perfectly but when it's in realistic view it's still black? I'm not sure if this intentional or not but I do recall on much earlier versions of AutoCAD the materials seemed brighter.

If this is just an issue with newer versions then I can just do quick low quality renders I guess to get a rough idea.

Hi,

Rendering has a lot of settings all influencing the result. Uploading the drawing and lettings us know which version of AutoCAD you are using will result in better suggestions and faster a valid result for you.

Just telling us "it's still black" can be everything and could be a 14 day thread full of guessing.
