RT and progressive sampler ignoring "Affect Background"

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

We just installed the latest Vray 3.50.04 and instantly ran into a problem with the background images in our renderings. I could brake it down to the fact that in “Bucket Mode” everything looks as in previous versions but when switching to progressive/RT/IPR the background image looks as if the “affect background” is ignored. Anybody else encountered this phenomenon?

Vlado, if you need the max file I can upload it, but I think this can easily be reproduced?

Regards,
Marco

Background Color in Env. Slot set to pure white

Hello,

The “Affect background” option is not supported by the progressive sampler (used by progressive and V-Ray RT). There is a warning about that in the log too.

Best regards,

Hmmm, everyone here was sure this was working before :smile: so nevermind, could you delete this thread?
