Toon Render Spots

[Infrared digital]

Hi

We are doing a stylised toon render animation using vray and all was going well until these yellow spots persisted to come up on the final render - see image;

The spots seem to be created when the sunlight passes through the thin trees which have an opacity.

The irrad and LC maps are pre calculated @ Fixed 8 and -3,0 Irrad and 1500 LC.

As the spots are fixed in the scene as the camera moves past, I am assuming that they are generated when doing the pre calcs. Does anyone have an idea of how to get rid of these ?

Thanks

Have you tried setting the sun to invisible?

Yep, turning on the "Invisible" option for the sun should solve this.

Outstanding ! I already had the Sun set to invisible but didn't have the sun parameter in the Sky material set.

Now it is and the spots have gone - many thanks !
