V-Ray 5 -> V-Ray 6: Different render output in VrayMaterials with SSS

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

Hi everyone,

We have switched from V-Ray 5 to V-Ray 6 and have a project in which the render output of materials with SSS is significantly different.
We have not yet managed to achieve the same result as in V-Ray 5.
To show the difference, I have attached two renderings and the respective settings in V-Ray 5 and V-Ray 6.

How can we achieve the same result in V-Ray 6 as in V-Ray 5?

Thanks

Try switching the Translucency Illumination mode to “Uniform” and see if the differences disappear. If not, best you send the scene so we can take a look.

FYI, the issue is reproducible. I’ll need to discuss this with the devs and will write back with more information.

Is there any news regarding the issue? We would still like to get the former (nicer) behaviour back.
Thanks

No news yet, I’m afraid. I’ll ping the devs about it again.
