Realistic View- Materials are Washed Out With A Green Undertone

Hello,

 

I noticed that when using the Realistic Materials display option in 3D that our materials are super inaccurate vs the uploaded image file. The materials are very washed out and have a green/mossy undertone.

 

I have tried adjusting the lighting/saturation settings, but this does not correct the problem. We do not render in Revit, but I do like to use realistic 3D views in our sheets. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

 

Please do not suggest fixes for material quality when rendering, we need it for the Realistic Material display in 3D.

 

See image of a model attached vs the correct materials. The roof shingles look like they have a green tone, when they should be a cool dark grey.

 

TYIA!

While the materials appear slightly different between the view and the images, those in the view are more realistic considered they reflect color of adjacent material.  

 

That is they appear closer to the images on the shaded side.  I don't what you show in the view are unrealistic or bad at all.

They seem super washed out. Especially the wood vs the image used for the material.

Okay. Well, keep in mind that Realistic Display is much different now than in past Versions.  Maybe that's what's throwing you.  

 

Have you tried? Real-time realistic views in Revit 2021 – Revit (autodesk.com)

Place a wood floor away from any surrounding elements and see how it shows in realistic view.
