(Fixed) [HOU-2515] PSA: Global No Bitmap Override
Hi everyone,
Warning to all of you updating V-ray to a recent nightly build coming from an older build.
In the recent builds the "Global No Bitmap Override" have a checkbox does comes disabled by default now, this makes it that all bitmaps that are missing will not be overwritten by a black color anymore (before all missing maps got a black color), the problem with this is that when artists add an environment node in an OUT context to add a fog for example, that environment node comes by default with an empty image node which before caused no problems because that global "Global No Bitmap Override" made it render black, but now your renders suddenly start having gray color through the mattes.
Default Color on image nodes when no image is found:
Default image file in environment nodes:
Result on matte objects of the missing bitmap in the environment node:
Gosho.Genchev, the default environment node should come with a color node set to 0.0.0 and not an empty image node.
Hope this info can help someone else, as this cost us quite a bit of time hunting for this today.
Best,
David.
