How to render just the Z-Depth?

Hi, I just cooked a long render. Unfortunately I did not set the Z-Depth right (need to move things back).

How do I just render the Z-Depth without re-rendering the RGB all over again?

Thank you!

Joe.

Re: Octane Disappeared?!

Hi Beppe,
Thank you. I updated the software and it is working again.
Seems strange that would happen.
Cheers,
Joe.

Octane Disappeared?!

Hello,

Suddenly Octane disappeared from Cinema 4D. There is no menu and if I open a project that was using it, it says that it is missing.

Strangely, I also think that Redshift is missing from the program as well.

Does anyone know what is going on?

Please help!

Thank you,

Joe Herman

Re: Question about denoising

Yes it's for activating the denoised beauty pass. Render pass is old concept that's now renamed as render AOVs after we added AOV feature. You should use this and/or also "use denoised beauty pass" in main render settings. It will copy denoised beauty pass in to main buffer without selecting the ...

Re: Question about denoising

Denoising is applied in to an extra render pass not to beauty. There is a check box to copy it to beauty result at end of render process in every frames. Always do some testing before leave a long render.

Thank you for your reply. I did not see it before I posted my last message. I assume this is ...

Re: Question about denoising

Hello everyone, following up from my previous message.

I stopped my render and rendered a frame in the Live Viewer Window. On the bottom of the frame, there are little tabs for Main, Demain, Op, Z and Out.

I clicked the DeMain at the bottom of the Live Viewer Window which is the denoise pass and ...

Question about denoising

Hello,

Before I kicked off my render (792 frames), I went to the denoiser tab and checked Enable Denoising as well as Denoise on Completion. I am rendering with Path Tracing at 500 samples with motion blur enabled on the camera.

It has been rendering for 24 hours and I am noticing that there it is ...

Is RNDR network compatible with latest version?

Hello there,

I am about to render a personal project (an art project of some 3D animation). I thought I would make it 1728 x 2160 (4x5 aspect ratio). It is 792 frames long.

On my older workstation with an NVIDIA card (pre RTX) it looks like it will take about ten minutes a frame which, upon ...

Re: Depth pass?

Hi Beppe,

I am doing a small test render of my file and I noticed that the composite is not rendered. When I opened some of the rendered frames, they seem to just be the beauty pass (without the composited Opacity layer masked with the Z-depth pass).

What am I doing wrong? When I go to the picture ...
