new version..... new trouble (or new render metod)
Hello.
I just downloaded and installed version 2.4.
I opened a previous job and I noticed at renderign some negative differences. I used the command Advanced photo and the rendering is much more dark. In fact I noticed that the chandelier ceiling automatically generated at the center of the floor, is too much small. Can i act with some commands to get it back as before?

Thank a lot and sorry for my poor english

The way lights are computed in Sweet Home 3D didn't change in version 2.4.
But on the contrary, they did change in the Advanced rendering plug-in version ≥ 1.2 you seem to use. As explained here, I enlarged a little lamp lights to soften shadows, and maybe this change was great in your case.
May I suggest you to add additional lights in you plan?
db4tech created a nice SH3F library containing various lights described here.

yes, i just downloaded the lighting package, but I would give the effect of light spread across the room and not just concentrated.

Re: new version..... new trouble (or new render metod)
You can still use the version 1.1 of the plugin, as long as you don't use DAE/Collada 3D models in you plan.
Take care of removing more recent files starting by AdvancedRendering from your computer to ensure the version 1.1 of the Adcanced rendering plug-in is the one that will run, because Sweet Home 3D always chooses the latest version of a plugin when there exists more than one file of a same plugin in plugins folder.
