Revit 2018.2 render in cloud stop working

[A.Sobhy]

Hi

I'm working on a design and i was using rendering in cloud to test the results, now the file size exceeded 700mbs

and when i try now to send any shot to be rendered in cloud, the file starts loading slowly until reach 63% and stop during gathering scene data, and not responding for very very long time.

Please advise.

Many thanks

The 700 mb are defenitely too much. You have to clean the file.
See if you've cleaned up Dwgs and delete them or create workarounds and just open the ones you need for rendering.
I do not know if you shared your file. Try to make as many extensions as possible. I render a lot in the cloud. But has always worked up to hetue. My file size was up to now a maximum of 200 mb.

I hope I could help you

actually the file was made on revit from scratch, i didn't use any DWG File, and i already use purge tool to make it smaller, but it didn't help

may be this happened because it is a very big project and all items are customized made by massing and adaptive components.

anyways, thanks for your reply.

You have to split your files. How do you do that you have to set before the start of the project. I work a lot with adaptieven components. I usually have 8 to 10 revil file links.

And nothing to write but as soon as you have the solution.

now i understand the problem

the project has a very big area for landscape, there is a lot of lighting units, and when i try to render a night scene, the revit will gather all scene data including the huge amount of lights.

i tried to change the settings of the render, make it sun only, it works successfully, so if i want to use the night settings, i need a new workstation to carry the file.

thanks
