Light Mesh and Antialising?

[DocManhattan]

Hi,

i use the VRAY Demo for Maya 2010 and think about it to buy the full version, cause i love the speed of rendering, quality and easy usability to get a nice result instead of overheaded MR.
But i have a big problem with the great feature MeshtoLight.

It works easy as it should be, but my edges of the LightMesh-Geometry are always not antialised, and that looks crap. I tried to push up the AA Sampling Rate, and so on, but didnt find the button where i can handle it.

So i need to use that LighttoMesh Feature, cause its easy and what i wanted long time in MR i need to know if i can get a clean result of it.

thx
DM

The result that V-Ray gives you is actually correct (because the light is so bright). In any case, you will get better antialiasing if you turn on the "Clamp output" and "Sub-pixel mapping" options in the "Color mapping" section. You can adjust the "Clamp level" depending on how much HDR information (if any) you want in the resulting image.
