Printable View
I am tring to create an exterior rendering using rendered materials but it looks the same as the shaded view, even though I changed the view seting to realist, fine and the material has been assigned an image in the render appearence tab of the material seting.
Make sure you are using the little tea-pot button at the bottom of the screen. Set this up and then hit render. It may take a while to render the image depending on your settings and project complexity. All other view settings - coarse, medium, fine, wire frame, hidden, shaded, realistic, etc. are all non-rendered settings.
Hope this helps.
