Hi,
I recently face a simple but annoying problem with the last scene I am working on: although I set Irradiance map Min/max rate to -5 / -2, VRay calculates only one prepass …
I can’t figure out why: does anyone have an idea ?
Thank you
is ‘multipass’ unchecked in the ‘advanced options’ of the irradiance map?
Is distributed rendering turned on in the settings tab?
Yes it is.
When DR is active IM is calculated in a single pass.
I didn’t know that, thank you.
How does it work ? Let’s say I set Min Max rate to -5 /-2 for the IM and I turn On DR. IM will be calculated in one pass with a rate of -5 ? -2 ? I am curious to learn more about that.
Yes - each bucket will do its own prepasses.
Best regards,
Vlado
OK so can you please confirm that calculating a -5/-2 non DR IM will give the same result as calculating a -5/-2 DR IM ?
It will be very similar, yes.
Best regards,
Vlado
Thank you.
