For my previous projects I haven't been utilizing the 3D feature for much more than making sure everything is going together correctly. What are some helpful tips to starting out doing renderings. Any videos or tips you can recommend would be amazing.

If you are a SoftPlan+ subscriber you may want to watch the 3D training video from your start page. If not, you can always check out the Friday Fundamentals videos available at: http://softplan.com/.../?page_id=3585

Depending on how much time you want to use up learning 3D renderings and how well you want it to look there are also services out there that do 3D renderings that look truly amazing based on your basic 3D line drawings from softplan. I find those a time saver for projects where my client requires 3D.

 I get nothing but compliments from all my clients on thier 3d renderings from SoftPlan. I put enough time in as it is on each drawing to have to try and 3d my floor plan with some other software. As far as trees and bushes and background images go.. I draw houses. Never really spent much time on the other stuff.

Softplan 3d is a great tool for clients, builders, framers and us.  This is one of my latest using a modified form of the illustrated 3d mode.  The only 3rd party effect i used is the whiteout vignette

Joseph-
May I ask your settings for illustrated mode.

I use this mode exclusively for my front page. Yours looks a lot better than mine.

Lighting, Anti Alias, etc?
