Hi,
I don’t understand how to settings it.
the settings were set to the highest according on the website, but the output was blurry in some places. How to set it up?
please advise

Thanks
Hi Kwaikeong,
The blurring could be caused by the NVidia AI denoiser. Could you try rendering with the Intel Open Image denoiser and see if that helps?
Best regards,
Alexander
I think you are referring to some banding in this image, not the blurriness itself. It seems the reflection on this material is supposed to be blurry. The banding is probably due to the 8-bit output format, PNG.
JPG is a lossy format. Use PNG.
Even JPG or PNG also same problem.
Try to save it to exr or 16 bit tiff
Let us know if you solved it then.
Thank you
The problem still there, certain part still not clear, the photos still have watermark.
is there any update? I’m also finding it difficult to obtain a clean result without noise while moving.
Unfortunately there are no universally optimal settings, it depends on the scene. Could you share an example image or video? How many light sources do you have? I assume you’re rendering an animation with the Optix denoiser and “reduce flickering” on. Which Vantage version and driver version are you using (this affects the denoiser)?
Hi,
I’m using the latest build of Vantage 2.2.1, vray v.6.20.00 update 2, Cinema 4d 2024.1.0, GPU rtx 4090 card with driver 546.29 (if there is any recommended driver it would be welcome)
As a light source I only have a sky without hdr and a visible area light in the shelves.
Denoiser I tried both and I’m rendering Mp4 at 1280x720
I’ll post a short video over the weekend
As you can see from the advantage setting it seems quite strong to me
thanks
Thanks, I see two things that could cause visual issues. One is the motion blur - it’s a post-processing pass and the quality is not always great. The other and more likely culprit is the “only final pass” option which we recently discovered a bug with. The bug will be fixed in an update, but until then try disabling this option. Do the artifacts look like these? Noise after first rendered frame - Vantage :: Issues - Chaos Forum
The driver is ok, however NVIDIA fixed a bug with release 546.33 because earlier drivers starting with 535 were causing Vantage to start slowly every time. So it might be beneficial to update.
thanks for the info! the artifacts are the appearance of noise in movement and therefore I don’t get a clean video. I’ve actually never tried to disable motion blur. It’s a shame because its effect was beautiful. I’ll update the drivers and do some testing. Thank you
Please make sure to post what was causing the issue if you find out (moblur, only final pass, or something else).
Good morning,
this is a test with the Denoise Intel, Motion blur deactivated and the “denoise only final pass” option deactivated. As you can see there is always a slight shaking that cannot be resolved. I’ll try it with nvidia Denoise and Flickering active and see if it works.
The Intel denoiser does not yet have a temporally stable mode for animations (“reduce flickering”). It’s best to try changing one option at a time. If you change all the suspect options together you don’t know which one fixes the render. I think you have only two to check anyway - blur and final pass.
OK, I’ll try one option at a time. So you recommend denoiser nvdia with “no Flickering”
thanks
Hi,
I did all the tests and the result is always the same.
The latter however is done without motion blur, with Nvdia denoise, Flickering active and “only final pass” denoise deactivated.
I increased the Samples to 3000 but it doesn’t improve much. As you can see, there is always a slight Antialiasing problem. Maybe it’s due to the low resolution 1280x720?
It seems like this is the best result I can get.
If you have any advice on rendering settings it would be welcomed.
Your earlier post only included a static image and I thought you had a different and more pronounced kind of noise/flickering problem (as in some other forum threads). In this case it looks like maybe it is indeed just down to antialiasing and resolution. Currently Vantage does not have the same AA filters as V-Ray. Try rendering at a higher resolution. Reduce the samples as much as possible to compensate the render speed.
if I reduce the samples I will definitely have the appearance of temporal noise. In my opinion I won’t be able to go below 2000
I’ll do some tests
