Shadow with "noise" on Photos
Hi!

First of all, congratulations on making this great software. I just bought an apartment and I am enjoying very much imagining possible decorations.

I am having a problem with shadows (I am not sure if this is a problem, or if its supposed to work like this). Check out these pictures:

As you can see, the shadows have this strange effect. How can I correct this?

I am running Sweet Home 3D on a Macbook Pro 13" bought 2 weeks ago, so it is the newest one. Running newest Mac OS, everything up to date.

PS- Sorry for english mistakes, it is not my main language.

Thanks!

Create a photo twice larger then downsize it with any image application (even Preview will be ok)

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I figured out what the problem was. I didn't know how to make proper "rooms", so my entire house was made as only 1 pavement, with walls inside.

The ceiling light was messing the shadows. After deleting the floor and making proper rooms, the shadows were automatically corrected.

I am posting the same photos, made the exact same size.

If anyone have happen to have this issue, just make sure there is no wall where your ceiling lights should appear.
