Ah ok, sorry re the Twixtor pointer; I assumed you'd tried the AE native stuff. Glad you sorted it anyway

DAGNABIT! I originally built this in V-Ray, but prior to the latest update, I couldn't render them out so I had to move to Corona. The latest NEXT solved the issue I was having, but converting back to V-Ray, from Corona, messes up almost all of my materials. From V-Ray to Corona was seamless. I guess I have to find out from Corona how to get rid of the flickering.

Instead of converting back, if you have the original unconverted Vray scene, can you merge the new scene back into that and replace the merged materials with the originals or did you change a lot ?

[glorybound]

I'll give that a try. Most, if not all, of the materials, have the same name.

[glorybound]

No, the majority of the materials are renamed. I thought it was going to be seamless, back and forth, between Carona and V-Ray. Wasn't that a V-Ray NEXT sales point?

[glorybound]

Converting from Carona to V-Ray screws up the gamma. To get the wood cabinets back I have to do an inverse gamma.

[glorybound]

And the reflections are totally wrong. Look at the faucet and the chairs.

Also the latest stable_4.2 builds over at https://nightlies.chaosgroup.com/mai...ble/stable_4.2 have some additional flickering reduction for the new hash map based light cache.

Very slow download. I tested my download speed and it's around 200MB down, but it's taking about an hour to download. Is there anything I have to do in V-Ray for flickering once I get this installed?

[glorybound]

I rendered with GPU and I am getting noisy images. I set each still to 5 minutes like I did with Corona and even at a lower resolution, they are not usable.

Hey Bobby, have you tried the LC animation settings shown in this Corona quick tip video? Might help your flickering if rendering it out in Corona.

EDIT: link to additional quicktip video and info on Corona UHD cache settings here:

To save a few seconds per frame might not be worth the extra work unless it solves flickering.

[glorybound]

Agreed. Timewarp should be sufficient, especially on a slow pan like this. You should easily be able to double the framer ate at a minimum I would think. FYI, Timewarp has to be set to "Pixel Motion" (it is the default) in order to interpolate the inbetween frames. Additionally you can add some motion blur in timewarp to soften some of the movement. In my experience you have to set the motion blur to Manual rather than automatic though.

Timewarp is working, but it is cutting off the animation duration. I tried to extend the duration, but it doesn't seem to matter. What am I doing wrong?

You need to loop the footage in the "interpret Footage" settings. If you're halving the speed, loop it twice; if your cutting the speed by a third, loop it three times, etc.

[glorybound]

I'll look into that. I remember reading that in someone's blog. Thank you!

[glorybound]

I'll have to play around because the time-warped came out choppy. I did the "interpret Footage", so nothing was cut off, but again, choppy .
