I even tried with 4000 samples, with the reflection and refraction bounces up to 15 and 4 GI bounces, but the issue remains. I’ve seen animations made in Vantage in youtube that are very high quality, but I just can’t achieve that.
I know that the Nvidia Optix AI denoiser is better for animations, since it can reduce flicker; however, when I use this denoiser I have a bug, where the last frames blend with the current ones, creating a ghost effect. Furthermore, with the Nvidia denoiser there usually remains speckled noise.
I want to see what raising the resolution will do to the rendering in this specific scene. It is best if could test the scene myself. Please archive and send it for review here or through the support contact form.
Unfortunately I can’t provide you the file. I spoke with my boss, and he told me not to share it.
I’ve been doing more tests, and it seems that I have the best results if I use the Nvidia Optix AI Denoiser Legacy Mode. The downside is that it tends to blur too much detail; however, it’s still better than the ghosting and noising artifacts I get from the regular Nvidia Denoiser, and the lack of temporal coherence if I use the Intel denoiser.
One more downside of using the Legacy Mode is that denoising artifacts appear near bright sources of light.
