V-Ray Matte Object - Noisy/unfiltered background

I’m working on a scene where I’m dropping in some objects over a photograph by reconstructing the objects in it, camera matching the perspective & setting them to Matte Objects in the V-Ray properties.

This all works as expected - apart from an odd issue that the environment I have behind the objects doesn’t render ‘cleanly’, it looks noisy/unfiltered.

Here’s an example:

It’s not hugely important as I’m going to comp everything in photoshop & won’t actually use the raw renders, but the image is very large & it would be nice if my test renders were closer to the finished article.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Which V-Ray version are you using? I remember there was some kind of issue there and that it was fixed, but I have to check when this happened.

Ah - I see we’re still running 1.50 SP1…

I’ll update & see if that fixes it.

Cheers Vlado.

Yep - that’s fixed it.

Thank you!
