glossies and bucket errors

[asango]

I seem to be having problems with glossy materials and some relation to the buckets

top image is with glossies, bottom without.



it seems random to a degree.

using max 6 and vray 1.09.03r

I think it is the material and the camera direction and the environment.

Try one with a lot of reflections just to see the difference.

but its artifacts. and they start and stop based on the bucket position.
its not like the whole material doesnt work, its just chunks that are screwed up.

there is no camera, its just the front viewport, but ive done that a million times and never had a problem. plus i cant have any perspective on this view, it has to be straight on orthographic.
i can alter the material, but its just a basic blurred chrome.

looks fine from a camera in the 3/4 shot.




sorry i cant show more of the image. NDA stuff.

Is it a camera view or an orthogonal view? If it is the latter, I remember seeing similar problems in the past.

[asango]

orthogonal view. its just the front render viewport
