no direct sunlight in the cpu potion of the beta installation

[Bechstein]

Hi Vlado!

At first: I'm impressed with the vray rt gpu! And i like the seamless integration into the vray workflow. once again chaos did a great job.
I have a single gtx480 and in my first tries i've got 12 times more speed compared to my 3.2Ghz i5 quadcore.

But i found an issue. I've tried to compare a scene with vray sun. When i swich to rt cpu there is no direct light from the sun.

Any idea?

Yes, thanks for the pointer; it's fixed already and I'll upload a new build tomorrow.

Best regards,
Vlado

I just noticed the same thing and almost posted this same bug! Glad I took the time to read through all the posts! Only reason I noticed is that I was going to test a VRayBlendMtl in the CPU version.

Cheers!

Hey Vlado, what about the new build? Were can we download it to have our sun back in CPU-Mode?

Same here with the last build in the site (today).. same problem in Max 2008 and Max 2011..

There is no new release on web. only old ones

There are two releases, the original 12562 which has the bug, and 12596 where this is fixed.

Best regards,
