    Regarding your problem, in Max 2024, you can right click on a setting an set it as a default, so that might solve it.
    Ah! Yes I forgot about that! Thanks

      I've found working in meters, a shadow bias of 0.002 works better than the default of 0.02. You get more micro shadow details on on things such as bricks and vegetation.

        Sorry for the offtopic. Are we talking about 0.002 meters or centimeters because: I work in meters but display in cm. And I just noticed that my sun was at a shadow bias of 20 cm. I've now put it at 0.002 cm, but if I ctrl right click it defaults back to 20 cm. So that's the default apparently.

            My display is meters, so for me it defaults to .2 (scene units) meaning 20cm. I drop it to .002 meaning 2mm. You can set it to 0 but I imagine that causes some sort of interdimensional rift.
            I presume that's what DanSHP means

              VRay's VFB can read the Object ID and Material ID masks in .exr exported from Chaos Vantage.
              I often use VRay's VFB to add lens effects to exr exported by Vantage. It's much more realistic than the simple glare in Vantage.
              It would be great if VFB could also read the Object ID and Material ID masks.

                Clean all VFB Layers
                Sometimes I received a file where VFB has lots of Layers and I just need Exposure, we have the delete button that also deletes selected layers, but I wonder if we could have a single button to clean all

                  I think that it would be very useful if we could have a mask channel that assign automatically material colors like in Corona
                  I prefer to use Cryptomatte but at work sometimes we need to use Multimatte or IDs, for multimatte I prefer to use Include/Exclude list, but at work we need to assign objects IDs
                  Include/Exclude has a bug where IPR doesnt show the mask colors but they appear in Production, this error has been logged

                    Could we have Rule of thirds and Center Cross as a preset in PhysicalCamera Proportion Guides?
                    Bunch of times I need those 2 and right now we can only have one with Custom

                      Just load an empty preset that you create yourself?

                          Well we have the preset button with a specified folder for default presets, which basically is the same, just more flexibel, as you decide which state it is exactly "reset" to in this case. Default for everyone is a bit different as we all have different workflows.

                            Excactly, personally I load my preset, but I cannot do that at work, a lot of times I received different projects with different setups, its really a mess, thats why a lot of times I need to start from scratch, like in Corona for example VFB has a Reset button

                              This.

                              Should be able to move the region around and continue refining just those areas without a full restart.

                              If this means you have to compute the light cache for the whole frame then give us the option (via setting) to do just that.

                                VRayCam Tweaks:

                                1. Reduce the "resolution" of the VrayCam's cone-grid? Too much visual clutter imho. One line through the center from each side is enough.

                                2. Add something to the shape so we can see the "up" direction of the camera.​
