If you ask me, it's the same rutine. Make sure that HSph sub. In Iradiance Is high enought and that you have good ilumination.

Re: blotches/splotches

What version you have?

1.48.89

i copied and pasted to another file. and the problem was solved. don't know exactly why. maybe the environment settings.
it is a simple scene. small window. and blue rectangle light on the window and orange rectangle light on the ceiling.

some forums say it is lack o lightning. but now that i "solved" the problem, i am not getting splotches even before adding the rec lights in the darkest areas. would like to know exactly what happened.

thanks!

No, the behavior should be the same.

No, the behavior should be the same.

i've done some tests.
i noticed that when i put big values in the gi color, i get big splotches hard to remove even increasing hsph subdivs or adding extra lights.
when gi is set to 1. i don't get any splotch. why?

thanks for the reply
i tried it but i know if i increase it too much my render time will grow.
how much hsph sub is enough but won't slow down my render?

i will recreate the scene and post it.
but i kinda solved my problem. i was getting the splotches while my environment bg color was much higher than gi color. my bg was 10 and my gi was 2.
when i decreased the bg color to a value next to the gi, i didn't get any splotches. does anyone know why?
