Revit 2009 Walkthrough Resolution

[Andrew Dobson]

Does anybody know how to change the resolution and quality settings of a rendered walkthrough created in Revit 2009?

No matter what changes we make to the dimensions or zoom to in File > Export > Walkthrough (screen shot attached) it always exports at a very low resolution such as 900x700

Thanks

Im not sure this is true, but i could try changing the size of the Crop Region of the VIEW first, then setting that percentage to 100% of the view, or whatever. Then set the resolution settings in the render dialogue (i dont recall, but i THINK if you pick Rendered output it shows up at the beginning...)

Yes you need to go to the walk thru perspective view, select the crop, then in the options bar change the size, chosing the scale option. I usually start with a View of 6x9, then scale as needed.

I have tried this, setting it to 1000mm by 750mm improves the resolution of the walk through AVI slightly, to 1024x768, but in the walkthrough settings it is saying that I should get 5120x3840 at 100%

I am using "Best" in the walkthrough quality settings

I think you are confusing a rendered walkthru, with just a shaded with edges walkthru. the numbers you are mentioning have to do with a rendered walkthru, the only thing that effects a shaded with edges or HL walkthru is the viewport size. So make it larger(scale it up) if you want higher res.

I posted a misleading screen shot first time around!

The size of the walkthrough crop region is 1000mm x 750mm
The render settings of the camera are set to High
In File > Export > Walkthough (as the screen shot), resolution is set to 5907x1430 at 100%
When I export the AVI, it renders at a maximum of 1024x768 no matter what the above is set at.

Any Idea why?

Thanks

Dude,

Just render one view as a single image. Then go to file-->export-->Walkthrough,
The walkthrough will default to the resolution that was previously used in your
rendered image. Hope this helps.

And you want a 5907x1430 animation!?! There isn't much out there that can play something like that back. BlueRay is only 1920x1080px. DVD is only 720x480px.

Anything more than this and you better be using a digital movie theater for projection - those are only 4K at best. (Plus it will take Revit the next century to output the images....)

Hmm...

Yes--that size is extremely large.

We would recommend only doing Shaded View Animations in Revit.

Any photorealistic animations should be done in 3dsMax--with Backburner
and some serious hardware.

cheers....
