      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%.

                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.

                  like the view and the subdued interior lighting on this one. Well done. πŸ‘

                    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:
