in my interior renders, the outside is always so dark. How come? What can I do about it?
Hello,
What is outside behind the Windows ?
There is a white zone and a black one, what is it ?
Can you send the file in archive format (atla) via WeTransfer and paste the link to this message.
It will be easier to help if I can open the file in Artlantis.
Which Artlantis version do you use ?
I sent the wetransfer link to sarrut@abvent.fr
the white zone is an HDR photo, which also provides the exposure
the black zone is the garden, drawn in the 3d model.
I have the impression that the garden zone receives little or no lighting
I used for this project artlantis 2021

It is not an impression, has you are using HDRI + « enhanced background » + Portals, all the light from the HDR goes through the portals and none is used outside the portals, it is a known limitation.
But if you activate an Heliodon, then the Sun light is going through the portals but is also used outside the building, hence you will see outside of the building.
Here is a rendering of your file with HDR, Sun and Portals:
Here is a rendering of your file with HDR, no Sun, no « enhanced background », no Portals
I will send you the modified file.
Best regards,
