Description
Setting
Increase this value when indirect illumination looks splotchy or scaly.
Greater precision yields smaller subtle effects, usually in corners or
Indirect Illumination Smoothness
below objects. Enter a value between 1 (most splotchy) and 10 (least
splotchy).
Increase this value when areas of the scene that should be indirectly
illuminated do not display as desired. This setting determines the
Indirect Illumination Bounces
number of times that indirect light bounces off objects in the scene.
It controls the amount of realism in indirect lighting. With more
bounces, light can penetrate further into a scene, resulting in more
physically correct lighting and a brighter scene. Enter a value between
1 (less indirect illumination) and 100 (most indirect illumination).
Typically, 3 bounces achieve sufficient results for indirect illumination.
Further bounces can add more subtle effects, but they are often not
significant.
Daylight Portal Options (only applies to sunlit interiors)
: These settings are available only for interior views that include
daylight. See
Daylight Portals

Whether the rendering engine calculates daylight portals for doors
that contain glass. By default, this setting is turned off.
Doors
Whether the rendering engine calculates daylight portals for curtain
walls. By default, this setting is turned off.
Curtain Walls
Daylight Portals
During the rendering process, daylighting is performed automatically. For advanced lighting quality in
interior views, you can enable daylight portals, if needed. Daylight portals improve the quality of light that
shines through windows, doors that contain windows or glass, and curtain walls.
