Clear Previous Render

[RedStar]

Hey Guys, Looks like you brought back this issue again. I swear this happened and you fixed it, and now again its back.
Clear Previous Render does not work in max 2024 Vray 6 2.1.
I tried a new scene file just in case and doesnt work.
Thanks as always....

Hi, thanks for posting. It looks like it works on my end.

I am using 3ds Max 2024.2.1 and V-Ray 6 2.1

Works fine on the latest nightlies and in the official build. Are you certain you tested correctly? Is that a nightly build and what's its release date?

Hey guys! So I figured out whats going on. It works but its functionality changed. In the past it would clear the full vfb, so if I render lets say a full render, then I need to only fix an area and do region but do not want anything other than that region, the clear doesn't affect anything outside the region. In the past it did.
I made a video showing whats going on. Its not a serious issue but I will have to change up my workflow on packshots. Sorry for the confusion. This is normally how I use it which is why to me at first glance it wasn't working.

Just tested this in V-Ray 5 and it works in a similar fashion. The thing is that when Render Region is active, the "Previous render" options affect only the previous render of the region itself, which I think is expected. In your case, it's a simple matter of manually clearing the VFB after setting up your region.

Yeap! Thats what I will do, no biggie.
