Been a while.

Looks like a good scene to flesh out. The pillows and mattress material seems to have a very reflective setting applied.
-
Good natural light makes it easier, I hope. There is a pair of directed lights on the wall above the bed which may affect the pillows and sheet. First render with the latest build and my first render for a while.
Some residents here being instructed to expose asbestos and themselves to it.What with new roofs etc and tools/waste flying everywhere we need to be careful.
Still having concentration issues, current working diagnosis of long covid is a bit contentious with me, I think it is just biped flu.

A bit deeper, altered the hdri image and remembered to change the setting to hdri in the environment tab. I also did away with part of a wall to open up the room properly which also reveals another window for natural light.
-
Great start on what can be a very nice render.
-
Thank you. Still not getting my head around artificial lights and in particular overlapping of illumination from different light sources.
I like this render program as it is and know it will get better. It challenges my grey cell but hey, what's life without a challenge. -

Before you tackle interior lighting it would be worth exploring why your scenes are struggling to light interior spaces.
It could be a glass setting or your HDR is not casting enough light.
Add a Sun light along with the HDR and make it shoot light in the window. Adjust its strength and radius to get it to your liking.
That's what I would do before even adding any assets into the scene. Get the interior space lit how you want.

I was finding the larger premises difficult to motivate myself with so am going back to the smaller. The backgound/hdri has auto exposure selected in Rayscaper but is washed out.
The old SLR dilemna of exposing for either the interior or exterior but never both.
-
What is the setup for the window glass? Is it thickened? Two planes?
-
Half inch glass pane with 10% opacity. Works elsewhere.

I reduced the hdri to 0.01%.
-
The pan and splatt effect is back.

OK HDRI only light source outside the model, painted on to a surface half the building height as a scaling mechanism. HDRI set to 0.80.

@Mike-Amos
like the view and the subdued interior lighting on this one. Well done. -
Thanks mate, not even close, takes me a while to find the sweet spot at the moment. Moving on.
-
Good stuff mike!
You mentioned that auto-exposure is doing funky things? Is the image below using auto-exposure? If so, what does it look like without auto-exposure?
For the window glass, make sure you are using the glass material with thin & transparent shadows:

OK, I have noticed we have different material presets available, you have a lot more than I and help, about. suggests I am using 0.9.92'

Ignore that, rong specs.

Mike-Amos View too.
Kitchen area, note missing colour/items 2d export versus render.
