Splotches and speckles are back in Connect.

Can you try going to the advanced tab of render settings and change Direct Light MIS from both to None? Or you could try setting the Direct Light Samples to 64 or more and leave the Direct Light MIS as it is. That might be the issue and this is something new that was not in V8i. We should have set the default to be None.

Let me know if that works and if it does I will make sure we change the default behavior. If it does not then you know the drill by now ......test case please;-)

Cheers,

Jerry

Thanks Jerry,

That did it!

Here two results:

- Direct Light Samples: 0

- Direct Light Samples: 64 (20% render time increase)

Both with Direct Light MIS to None.

 

I must ad that some mesh mappings are different from V8i (cushing's)

Greatings,

Hi wysiwig and Jerry,

I have to say , these parts still look weird

You're right, Karol!

I made another interior and the splotches are stronger visible. despite the settings of Direct Light MIS to None.

I will upload a package named "Splotches".

Thanks,

Wim

Hi Wim,

What you want to try is 64 samples or more maybe 512 with MIS set to Both instead of None.

Cheers,

Jerry

Hello Jerry,

Here the result of MIS: both and samples: 512.

The corners are better, but splotches bigger.
