Object/water clipping

[Dman3d]

Not sure if this is related to any of the other z-order issues reported but:

The viewport preview shows what appears to be a good solution

When rendered its like the "pool" is alpha'ed out

Vrat mats, no toon, Vray cam, Vray dome with HDR, single spot light, vray shadows
multi-sub mat + vray mats, IR + LC, linear 1/1/2.2

Any help is appreciated

well, no idea how this happens, definitively the toon is not guilty, can i see the scene?

Thanks, it appears that when Default Geometry in Raycaster Params is set to "Dynamic" it occurs, when set to "Static" no problem

Max2011 x64 + Vray 1.50SP5 + PFD 1.20

Pm me an email I can send the file to please.

Hi,

is there a way to overcome this problem?

Seem like the same thing i posted there: http://www.chaosgroup.com/forums/vbu...at-render-time
Thx.

try to switch the default geometry to "auto"

Seem to do the tricks! Dont have time to test it on the other scene for now but i think it would fix it anyway.

Thx!

Jay.

static seems to work as well
