Specular and Lighting channels overbrights

[Oleg_Budeanu]

Hello
I am getting overbrights in specular and lighting channels over 1 and up to 10 in 32bit color space (I've checked EXR rendering). After denoising it looks very bad - "dancing" blurred streaks and etc.
Scene is fairly complex - that's a bar with bottles and spot lights.
Any ideas about how to tackle this?

800 samples, custom preset

Lighting setup is mostly sphere vray lights and some vray lights as "discs"

Is it any better if you disable ray termination or reservoir spatial importance?

I've tried a lot of different options from the docs and I've turned off almost all the lights from specular/reflections, but I am still getting those nasty overbrights. It's just dancing dots everywhere which are above 1 and up to 12. Nothing helps so far

Hi, you could have a look at this thread and this article. They are about fireflies in V-Ray but some of the points are applicable to Vantage.
Also if you'd like please send us your scene here or trough the support tickets. We may be able to help with the troubleshooting.

Thank you, I opened a ticket, though I need FTP access or filedrop to send you the vrscene and vantage file

It would be awesome if Vantage denoised the render passes. I currenly only use refraction and spec because they are the cleanest passed to work with at the moment.

Indeed. The denoiser is crucial in Vantage, I was surprised that there is no VRayDenoiser with its passes.
