Denoiser in 3.50.03

Is there some new workflow with denoiser in 3.5? I’m trying all combinations of denoiser options but I simply don’t see the denoiser element and when I click on “Update” I get these errors:
warning: worldPositions render element not found.
warning: worldNormals render element not found.
warning: Noise levels render element not found.
warning: Background render element not found.

Bump. Please take a look at the attached pic. Look at the warnings and how there is no denoiser element present. What am I doing wrong? :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Can you post that scene (without the geometry, I don’t think it’s needed)? I can’t see anything immediately wrong from the settings, and things work for me here, so it might be a bug in some specific case.

Best regards,

I have attached the scene here, but it seems to be happening in all my files.
Thanks for checking.

This scene is saved with an older V-Ray version, with the old adaptive method. Here is the warning that you’ve probably missed:

You can turn on the new adaptive method in maxscript by typing - renderers.current.twoLevel_adaptiveMethod=1.

Yep, I missed that one, thanks :slight_smile:
It was working in 3.4, so I haven’t noticed till now.
Your solution works, thanks again.
