Lighting effects won't fully render
When I try to render lighting effects there is a horizontal gap in the middle of the image where the lighting effects do not render. Never had trouble rendering 3d or other things. Is this a defect in the software? Windows 7 64bit, Photoshop CC 2014, processor Intel i7 3.4 GHz, RAM 16 GB, and Video card GeForce GTX 560 Ti VRAM 1GB.
Sure do. I keep my drivers are up-to-date. I'ts a good card and not too old. It renders lighting effects vdery fast but not completely - a narrow rectangular gap in middle. Some gaps are larger than this.

I'm using Photoshop CS6 and trying to render a simple lighting effect. I successfully rendered the effect in a smaller document (5.5x8.5 in), but the effect doesn't show at all when I drag the layer into a new, larger document (24x78 in). I tried rendering it again fresh on both a vector smart object and a rasterized layer with no luck. I'm not sure if it's the graphics card or a wrong setting or what. Any ideas?

After I hit OK to accept the lighting effect. NOTHING happens

Lighting effects won't function
I've opened a photo, it's RGB, it's 8 bits per channel. When I go to Render/Lighting effects, it blinks momentarily, makes another layer, but it won't allow me to do anything from that point. Any of the other render features works fine, but not the lighting effects.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

Imported song into After Effects CS6 and won't fully render.
I imported a song into After Effects CS6 to use audio waveforms. I click RAM preview but it won't render or play past 18 seconds. What am I doing wrong and how do I render the entire audio track so it will actually play all the way through with the effects on it.
Ram preview length is determined by the amount of available ram. It is also usually limited to the work area. Either lower the resolution of the comp window or extend the work area.
Please read the FAQ section at the top of the forum. You'll have your answer there. -
How do I get Lighter Effects work space?
I am having problems with Lighter Effects. I can't seem to get it to open its work space. I go into Filters, Render Lighter Effects and click on it. When I do, it blinks the properties and then adds a layer naming it Lighter Effects. But it never opens the work space. It only sometimes opens up the Lighter Effect properties. And without the work space, I can't do anything with the properties anyway.
I need a way to fix this so the Lighter Effect work space appears when I click on the Lighter Effects in the Filter Render. I have just re-installed and updated Photoshop CC 2014, if that helps those out there helping people like me who are not experts at Photoshop.You can find the system requirements by clicking on the hyperlink in my previous post.
Re: 3D, you should be able to, for example, open a 3D model via 3D > New 3D Layer from File. Or you could select a normal 2D layer and go to 3D > New Mesh from Layer. If you can't do this your video card does not meet system requirements or the driver may need to be updated.
If your Lighting Filter is working properly your window should look something like this: -
Where is lighting effects in CS5?
Hi,
Recently I upgraded to Photoshop CS5 on my iMac. When I went tonight to select "lighting effects" under "filter" and "render", I noticed it is not there. Where is it?
thanks,
DavinS06somethings were left behind in CS5
here's a link that describes where they are and how you need to restart in 32bit to run lighting effects and other plugins

Will not allow me to render lighting effects
Hi,
So I am following a tutorial on making text that uses lighting effects (http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/text-effects-tutorials/using-light-and-shade-to-bring-te xt-to-life/ )
However, on step 18 it says to go to Filter > Render > Lighting Effects. Using CS6, it won't give it as an option
Any ideas or advice?
Thanks!Hi,
Are you running XP? We had to disable the GPU version of the Lighting Effects filter for XP systems due to GPU driver bugs.
If you are running Win7, then you'll want to check that you have the latest GPU driver installed from the video card manufacturer, and that your video card is supported. See this FAQ for more info: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4289204#4289204.

Help! My copy of CS5 won't show lighting effects, and changing it to 32 bit mode does nothing
Hi guys,
I have a copy of CS 5.1 and my system is a Macbook Pro on Mac OS 10.6.8
I want to use lighting effects, so I changed it to 32 bit mode. So I go in to Photoshop and it's not there. I reset PS's settings, restart the computer as well. Still nothing.
Wah. It worked before in the past, so why not now? Also I checked the plugin folder to make sure the lighting effect plugin was actually there and, yes it was. So what gives?
Anyway, any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated, thankyou
JanOk this is the render menu in 32 bit mode. Annndddd...
I noticed there is still the 'x64' beneath CS' title... is that supposed to be there when you boot in 32 bit mode? Or could it be that my CS just isn't loading in 32 bit?
Anyway thanks for replying! -
Can't access Filter-Render-Lighting Effects
I have an image in Bridge that exists both as a jpg and camera raw. I can open the jpg version and apply Filter - Render - Lighting Effects. When I try to do the same with the camera raw image, I get as far as Render, and then the Lighting Effects options is gray and not accessible (along with Clouds and Difference Clouds). Why is this? Surely it should be possible to use the Lighting Effects feature with a raw image?
I am using CS2.Glad to get you up to speed again, on only took a few min. to get answer. Your lucky day!

Render Lighting Effects Filter Crashing PS CS4 on only Mac Pro Towers...8 Cores!!!
I just recently received a brand new Apple 8 core 2.93Ghz Mac Pro tower and also had the previous 3.33Ghz 8 core with the same exact issue. I have 16GB of memory on this tower and my last tower had 16GB as well. Everytime I run the render lighting effects filter on certain files in PS it hangs up and then crashes on me. I know it is not the files because they work on my Macbook Pro's, my iMac, and have tested them on many other computers other than the Mac Pro tower's at the Apple Retail Store out by me. I ran the same files on their new Mac Pro and it crashed just like it did on my two towers, but was very random and not file specific. Some that crashed on mine opened on theirs and vice versa. I have worked with the Adobe top techs troubleshooting this and supposedly eliminated that it could be a preference related issue, permissions related issue, file issue, and have done many things like disabling Open GL, resetting prefs, reinstalling, trying in new user, in Rosetta, in safe mode, in the root user, etc...super thorough testing and it still happens. Both Apple and Adobe feel that it must be something going on with the Mac Pro tower, PS, and possibly how the graphics card interacts and renders the filter. Actually I opened these files in my PS CS3 and it rendering the lighting effects filter, but was unable to run the filter on the entire image and actually left a 1/4 inch of the bottom of the image untouched which was completely bizarre. I have screenshots and console logs too if someone wants to see. I am REALLY curious to hear if anyone else has run into this problem or if they try what happens. Thanks and curious to hear some input. Regards, Anthony
Here are three links to the files...the first one is the file that is crashing my CS4 when running filter>render>lighting effects. The second is what it did to my file after running that same file in CS3, and the last is what the preview dialog box showed in CS3 when not running the filter on the entire image.

http://www.atortphotography.com/psbugs/cs3filterpreviewcorruptHey there Bryan...I actually just talked with a level 2 Apple product specialist today after generating a case with Apple and he brought this to Apple Engineers and apparently since it is third party...meaning Adobe....it first has to be documented with Adobe after they look into the problem and then Adobe apparently will or should work together with Apple to help find a solution to the problem. This problem is very easy to reproduce on any 8 core Mac Pro tower and am hoping more people use the darn render lighting effects filter and get on everyone's case. I also had someone I know who is a Photoshop guru...Jim DiVitale test it on his 8 core in his photo studio and he was able to get his PS CS4 to crash like a bomb too. There is obviously something going on that needs to be looked at hopefully MUCH sooner than later so let's see what comes out of this. It really does suck because this is a filter that I actually do use in my workflow quite often. I just know that before I even attempt to run this filter I make absolutely certain I save everything and then hit that darn OK button. Keep on them and try to bring as much attention to this issue as possible so we can come to a resolution fast! @nthony

FILTERS/Render/Lighting Effects
I am using Photoshop CS2 and trying to use FILTERS/Render/Lighting Effects and get the following message “Could not complete the Lighting Effects command because the selected area is empty!” Thanks for your assistance
Hi,
Do you have a blank transparent layer active or a selection that has no content inside? -
Filter/Render/Lighting Effects
When I go to Filter/Render/Lighting Effects Windows says there is a problem and has to close the program. Thanks.
Hello! Welcome to the beta. please take some time to review the FAQs. There is one in particulat that asks you to share some info about your setup when posting possible bugs: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/963366?tstart=0
If you are on XP, the 3D features are not supported. There is a minimum power needed for the graphic cards, and you want to make sure that you are using the latest drivers. -
Render lighting effects doesn't work
When I try render > lighting effects I just get a black screen. The only thing that gives me my orig image is 'ambience' and that gives it uniformly. ie NO OVALS to turn and play with. This worked fine in previous versions and just checked it works in CS 5 which I still have.
I'm Using Photoshop CC v 14.2.1 x 64 with Windows 7 64 (same windows that works and has worked with PS 5)
And my housemate's same PS and same Win 7 works fine.
thanks,
JudyOften black screen are cause by your Display driver, With CC 14.2.1 on my Windows 7 I see this. Make sure you have the latest display drivers installed. If you do try changing GPU Advance settings to basic mode.
