3D View in Gray

[Kelvin Loh]

Hi

I'm new in SD, I don't know why my entire 3D viewport is in gray mode, including the hdri background, anyone can help?

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you tell me which version of Designer you use ?
Can you also send me your log file ? (In the top menu of Designer, go to help-> export log file)

Thanks !

In the 3d view, can you go to camera/edit and make sure the Saturation setting in set to 1 in the post processing group ?

[Kelvin Loh]

I'm using 2017.2.2, I try to uninstall and re-install it, even other version ( 2017.2.0, 2017.1.0 ), all have the same issue.

Saturation is set to 1, every setting here is keep in by default, but I only can use the default camera setting, when I switch the Post Effect Enabled to True, the program will crash.

Apparently your drivers are 8 years old (or maybe you actually have only the windows drivers, not the Nvidia drivers installed).
Can you try to update your Nvidia drivers?

[Kelvin Loh]

Yes, I consider upgrade my driver to GTX 1050 soon, can this driver support for SD?

Before you update the actual HARDWARE (to a GTX 1050), there are SOFTWARE "drivers" you can update, and that is what Nicolas was saying is 8 years old.

The basic 1050 has only 2GB of VRAM, which is very minimal.  I suggest you shop for a 1050Ti, at least, which has 4GB.

How do I update the software driver, you mean go to Nvidia site and search for my current driver latest update?

[justaviking]

Yes, exactly.

It's worked!!

Now 3D View "color version" is back, after installing the latest update to driver.

Thanks to you guys who help me out find the solution to fix this issue, everything is working stable now, thanks so much!!

That's excellent news!  Glad it's working.
Thanks for letting us know.
