Yeah it was a bit none specific but that is because I have not used it sins. In the beginning in octane 2021 I tried it a couple of timings and it was not consistent. If i reminder correctly some lights where very dim in some frames and lit up again after a car passes (I think in combination with ...

Question about AI Light 2.0.
I noticed that when using AI Light 1.0 over the past year, it does not work very well in scenes with moving lights or where lights turn on and off.

Will AI Light 2.0 handle animated lights better?


Can you be more specific? Not really sure what do you mean by does ...

I've noticed a new problem which i dont know a way around - the clipping material prohibits shadows from falling on objects that are "inside" the clipping objects. (See screenshots and scene attched)

is there a way to fix this?

Hi,

The object layer map that is attached to the clipping material ...

I know this is a very early XB, but we should probably start reporting some stuff:
Some scenes exported, are working ok with default Pathtracing kernel. The moment I switch to Photon tracing the engine stops and can't visualize results. In fact, octane becomes irresponsive.

It is not possible at the moment, I am working on an implementation for clipping material to work with rounded edges.

Hi,

I can't share the scene unfortunately and can't reproduce it in another scene.

I have fixed several issues related to this, pretty confident that it would ...

BUG: Weird lines in example with RTX on using 3090

I found another example that renders some weird lines on a 3090 with RTX on. RTX off looks ok.

The camera is in the exact same position as the floor, so its causing problems, but RTX on should look the same as RTX off.

With RTX off it behaves normally.
I will send you an example scene right away by private message.

Kind regards

Thanks!

I can confirm that this is a bug I have fixed a few days ago. The fix will be in the next release.

I am having issues with the specular component of the shaders.
The specular part of the material randomly disappears when moving the camera.

Attached are 2 images, one looks normal the other I get when I move the camera a little bit to the side.

I am using RTX 3090 and Nvidia driver 466.47
