Time for the yearly GPU rant

[savage309]

Any progress on the Overrides GPU support. Even if it's just the Background, so we can render the floor reflected back in to the geo?

Not for Update 1, but it is in the todo list.

Are you talking about the Hotfix or the update?

Alex says that Update 1 is months away? So the Override on the GPU won't be ready for at least a few months?
Just for clarification, the Overrides on the GPU were first requested over a year ago. The reason I mention this, is because for a large part of our work, we use the Overrides, which means we cannot use V-Ray GPU.

Reference for Update 1 being months away - Private message about 'Dome Light Adaptive Issue', where the render produces squares when using the new Adaptive light - so we can't use this new feature either.

If we talk about Max, Update 1 was released few days ago.

I didn't get the thing about the private messages?

I am sorry that the feature is not yet in.
We know the feature is important and it is in the todo list. Unfortunately, there are many other stuff there too.


Best,

Just referencing the Private message, for clarification on whether we're talking about a Hotfix or Update.

I appreciate that there is lots to do, and the new features are great, but the Overrides have been requested for over a year and so I'm just pushing a little for this .

Cheers

Oh, and we're using Maya.

The behaviour for CPU ist now the same with Update 1. We pulled back Next for this reason.
Wrong elements which don't add up to the RGB result. Same weird GI spill from the ground plane, wrong reflection from the ground plane. Vlado said he is working on a fix.

It might be better to report to support or in different forum threads - everything in one thread is not usually ideal for managing and there is high risk for us missing something this way.

Yeah, I submitted the bug to the support and Vlado's already on it.

kosso_olli would you mind if I close this topic and post in new ones for your feedback, as it gets a bit hard to follow here?

Best,

[kosso_olli]

I don't mind.
