Question

A
Since AutoCAD 2016, the original rendering engine computing photorealistic visualizations of 3D scenes - "mental ray" - was replaced by a new, easier to use Autodesk kernel - "Rapid RT", resp. "Autodesk Raytracer".

If you are using an AutoCAD 2016 family product and you want to switch to the older, original mental ray kernel, with more detailed rendering paramaters, set the undocumented variable RENDERENGINE to the value 0 (zero).

This setting is no more available in version 2017 and higher.
