Strange outline around Vraylight material objects

[oldskoolflash]

Hi folks,

I'm sure this is an easy fix but I have wasted several hours trying to find a solution without success!

Can anyone of you kind chaps help?

Thanks, Ben.

Are you rendering linear, or is that clamped? If not, then try it with clamping at 1 or 2 to see if that helps.

Ok, I solved this myself after plenty of tinkering. The culprit was the v-ray image sampler (Antialiasing). The was set to Fixed and the Antialiasing filter Catmull-Rom. Changing image sampler to Adaptive Subdivision and filter to Area. I think these are the default setting so they must have been changed on this rig.

Hope this helps someone in future...

For this type of renders, it's best to avoid sharpening filters like Mitchell-Netravali, Catmull-Rom etc. Blurry filters like Area, Soften, Quadratic will work better.
