Textures are rendering with red tint

[ales_zvolanek]

Hey,
I'm really confused why I suddenly get render result like this? Geometry on big bricks and front layer of tiles (brick like) are tinted red in the render

material of the front layer appears absolutely normal in viewport


The big bricks material also appears completely fine


All the lights are white (or close to it), bw reflections in the background
At the same time the material of the plaster looks completely fine

Hi, thanks for posting. Please check if you have any VFB layers activated. What are we comparing in the last two images? Viewport IPR and production render?

Hey,
its the same no matter if I have VFB layers activated or not.


For the last two images (attachment) they shouldn't be there in the post at all (I thought I deleted them, I'm sorry its just confusing - but shows the same issue, both were renders).

Viewport looks just fine:

Looks to me like a double gamma.
Try resetting the render settings (switch to scanline and back to v-ray) and see if that clears any such issue.

Alright so what I found out....

If I have material with Vraybitmap - it does this
If I have the same material with regular Bitmap map - it doesn't do this

Somehow it may be related to gamma (because adjusting gamma fixes this, but it only fixes this for those "broken" materials)

It seems that Vraybitmap and regular Bitmap just operate with different gamma settings.

Maybe you can switch that somewhere, but I'm not really sure where?

Hi, please make sure you have set up your 3ds Max, V-Ray and VFB settings as in the screengrabs below


These are the default settings and with them you should have correct Linear workflow.

Other places where you can control a texture's gamma are here for VRayBtimap


And here for Bitmap (the screengrab show the image loader)

well i save my work, go to sleep...
the other day the RENDER LOOKS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT without changing any settings.

thats just AMAZING

[ales_zvolanek]

My setting are like you suggested (I'm limited in uploading more pictures so it wont go through lol)



YET.....
render looks ok



viewport is a TOTAL MESS (something looks ok, most of the stuff looks whitewashed)



aye and if it works 1 day alright (everything), the other day it is all fucked up after loading, suddenly, without any changes....
