noise in mirror reflection

The problem is that the reflection is much more noisy that the room. What settings should I change to get rid of it? Im using universal setting. QMC , LC etc

Can you show an image of this effect? My initial advice would be to lower the DMC adaptation amount a little bit.

Vlado, btw, why new sampler is called DMC ? And why qmc set to brute force gi, as in earlier versions :slight_smile:

It comes from deterministic monte carlo. By default V-Ray no longer uses QMC sampling and this has been reflected in all parts of the UI where any references to QMC sampling have been replaced.

btw: the new dmc seems to be 5% faster as the RCs in one of my latest scenes!!! not only for rendering, also for LC and IRR… and this in a free update!
@vlado: have you done any benchmarks with typical scenes and can show some results?

btw 2nd: be carefull with setting the adaptive amount higher than .85 cause this can lead to a blotchy IRR! that thing costs me hours before I regonized it.
@vlado: is there any way to avoid this (in SINGLE IRR mode and dmc)? I can sent you a pm with some examples to show the kind of blotches i get, if you want.

best regards
