Region Render + Denoise After

I’m not sure if anyone has figured out how to properly render regions as I have trouble denoising them.

-Denoise mode - Gather data for later-

42pass render > Save CXR > Load into CIE > Post + Denoise

42pass region render > Save CXR > Load into CIE > Post + Failed Denoise (Error: Denoising has failed. The image has to be rendered with at least 2 passes.)

CIE cannot denoise regions, I will update once I find a work-around.

2 Options so far

  1. -Denoise Mode: Gather data for later-
    Save in History > Create Regions > Pass Limit 4 (any number above 2) > Resume Render > Save CXR > Load into CIE > Denoise will do the whole image but the regions will be denoised properly

  2. -Denoise Mode: Full Denoising-
    Create Regions > (Erase) Clear Frame Buffer > Render 42 passes > Save CXR > Load into CIE > Adjust denoiser

Both options still create lighting/shading/artifact differences in between original & regions.

I think region renders still have a way to go before becoming production ready.
