Light Flicker

[cbutlerc]

No worries natty.

To answer J_Bug.

I have 1 direct light for the sun with Vray Shadows.
Then I have 1 Vray Light in each window with differnt values depending on how big the window was.
Stronger values for the bigger windows and lower values for the smaller windows.
Then I added 1 more Vray light behind the camera, because I wasnt getting enough light on the oppostie side of the windows.
When I increased the intensity on the window lights the textures would get to hot.
I also added a skylight with a light blue tint at 1.5 I think?
Then my GI settings are posted above.

I hope this is explained clearly.

2 simple questions :

- Are you bitmap mapping some lights ?
- Does this flicker occur each time you rend an anim.
-If yes, on which computer(s) ?
-If yes again, try to isolate your problem on that computer.
...coz I guess it's still an auth problem (perhaps a something wrong with your auth, not a piracy problem).

well. we are not saying your using a hack now that you have pointed it out. we are just saying that vray is authorised on a computer basis. Even if its the sme copy of max and max serial number for max on the other computer, vray would still need a new authorisation code.

No it wouldn't. VRay is tied to your max ID.

When you export the max licence, the max ID goes with it, and you can use the same authorization key to authorize VRay on the second computer.

you man, this scene is really great, and even the flickering does make sense in it (it gives a feeling of older video)
So how did you put that so many stuff into it?

if you notice, the wall in the hall is curved, thus making the whole scene look like tolkien hobbit habitat.

nice going, hope you get the lighting problem solved.

me like.

Hi cbutlerc,

Are you using the "Store with irradiance map" option? Just a guess
