Problem with blotches on interior

[paulison]

Good to see your setting natty because it is quite similar to what I'm using as well. Reliabilty is the most important thing I think. Its cool that basically those are defaults with a few key values changed that make the most difference.

People trying to pick up every trick they see other people using can get into trouble easily so i think that it is best to keep things simple, even if the rendering takes longer.

anyway, interesting to see other peoples settings. thanks for sharing

I've noticed that IMAP doesn't really care for a fully adaptive dmc amount, I'd be interested to know what happens on your original settings when lowering your adaptive amount to like .9, that usually gets rid of those blotches for me.

yeah I've kind of found this too....

[dellis]

Yeah...i tend to leave mine at .95 most often.

I agree with .95 or even .9 It often times just goes mental otherwise.

*High fives* Glad we're all in agreement!

Had a recurrent blotch problem, tried Natty settings, and voilà ! Helped me managing what was my problem.

You're still the best dude Thanks a lot

Tricky,

can you try our settings which give us clean renders every time.

i do understand your settings but as you have found out the universal settings don't always perform as expected in some cases.

Natty,

I'm curious what changes you would make to these settings if you used Brute Force for your secondary bounce.

Hi

we don't use Brute Force ..

I was looking at solving some problems and came accross this thread. I am interested how image size has not being discussed. I was under the impression some settings are dependant on how big the image is that you are rendering. If this is the the case, then would'nt some settings produce results, at certain render sizes whilst others, dont?

I have used Natty's settings on an image, 3200x2560px, and it's certainly producing very clean results.
