Noisy Matte Shadows

Hello,

I am having a bit of trouble with matte shadows, I cant get them to clean up to a satisfactory level. Is there something i am doing wrong on my end?

I have attached 2 images that show the problem - both are using the same settings but the matte version has much more noise in the shadows.

I have tried using both the material wrapper and the VRay object properties and get the same results.

The scene is a simple dome light with a plane light to cast a shadow and the teapot has a chrome shader applied and the floor is a 128 grey default VRay shader.


Hi,

This should be fixed in the latest update of V-Ray Next. If you are not using the latest version, could you update and try again.

Hi Martin,

I am using V-Ray Next for 3ds Max, update 1.1 that was released on 18th of December 2018.

This is the latest version i can see on the download portal.
