Light flickering?

[surreal33]

Hey, i'm rendering off an animation with vray, and using GI, but when i render it seems like my light is flickering! does anyone know whats causing this? it's really distracting and doesn't look good.
Thanks for the help

lol, I smell a set up :P

[percydaman]

are you using the demo?

[surreal33]

I'm using the free version with indirect illumination on.

What do you mean a set up?

[s.s.t.]

aha, the free version :P

[percydaman]

make sure your irradiance map settings are high enough. maybe if you posted a screenshot of your settings.

[surreal33]

Oh turns out i am using the demo! haha, i thought i was using the free version.

is it noisy shadows? you might wanna use a higher setting. or an overall image flicker of brightness?

[surreal33]

Some shadows on the head were flickering, but also the brightness changed a couple times,.
Thanks for the suggestiosn i'll try those out.

[percydaman]

im thinking its an auth problem. those settings might create some minor noise but not image flicker of brightness like your describing. Try turning off gi and retry animation. If it still flickers, then your not using a legal version.

maybe we could make a "flickering animation" sticky in this section of the forum???

Yea but if we did that it would be harder to pick out the numbnuts using the pirated software and reporting them to the proper authorities...

can you post here two images -> 1 with your VRay free, and 1 with your VRay DEMO?

I don't know... I think it is best to ignore them... right? It is not like they have a usable version if Vray... it flickers!
