If I try to assign a 2sidedmaterial per Rhino material properties -> browse, than I get the error: Failed to SetBasicMaterialProperties. If I assign the material per material editor, than it works fine.

Re: **** PLEASE POST ALL VFR4 PROBLEMS HERE *****

Since DR does not support additional channels right now (apart from z buffer?), there is no reason to have them anyway, mine were a leftover from an older test run, so I was not aware they were still there.

Hmm - that doesn't make sense...I wonder why the z-buffer would work but the others don't...

I am testing a scene right now, where I had hangups of slaves nearly every time after 20 minutes or so, the last 2 times I rendered without the channels I got no hangups after 5 hours of rendering...

I suppose that is possible - that certain channels could cause issues, but in my testing I generally do not use additional channels and I have been able to get hangups without them.

Is the background you're disabling a Sky Texture? If so - it may be removing the Sun-light when you disable it. And if you are using the physical camera it would mean there is not enough light for its exposure. Try unchecking "Exposure" in the physical camera settings and see if that resolves your issue.

If you use the physical camera you have to push it high something like 60000 for it to show.Just like the reflection background.

Or you can just disable "Exposure" in the physical camera settings.

Displacement and fog

Hi,

I've been working on a rendering of a spa with water and reflections. I can get the colour of the water right with fog, but when I add the displacement map for the reflections the colour disappears. Is this a bug?

Thanks,
Gavin
