How do I get both, the beauty pass and denoiser?

[Alexx31]

I made a test rendering with a denoiser as renderelement.

But I can't see the beauty pass without denoiser. Effects.Result is the same like denoiser.

How to get that separately?

Hi Alexx31,

The RGB/Beauty pass is present in the multichannel EXR file. In After Effects, all the additional render passes are available from EXtractoR, have a look here.

If you load the same EXR file back to the VFB2, you should also be able to see the RGB channel, see here.

Thanks, I know this, but on friday my beauty was denoised, too! It looked exactly like the denoiser and not like my rendering on my own computer.

Hi Alexx31,

Can you share the job ID (see here how to get it) for that job? Also, the EXR from the Chaos Cloud and the rendered EXR file from your local machine?

Share them here or via the contact form on your webpage, and please don't forget to mention this thread.
