OctaneRender™ Standalone 3.06 TEST

[vijay]

Got a very strange result of rendering the animation sequence (rendered with passes, saved as separate PNG sequences, AS enabled). I'll try to figure out what was going on and give more detaied description.

Well, I get this when I render with AS and render passes enabled... If I disable AS all passes are rendered fine. Does anybode has the same, or I am the one lucky here? )

Hi Alex,

This is now fixed. will not happen in next release.

Thanks
Vijay

Great, thanks!! And file naming in the Batch script too? And Untonemapped EXR Z-channel saving too?

I reported this to Paul (Modo plugin) but this structure causes crash - please fix it asap, because I cannot work at all with this bug. Thank you.

I did manage to figure out why this was happening, fix is done for next release. Thanks for reporting

Any chance we see the fix this week? Just the fix?

Can you guys look into this problem for octane 3ds max Very annoying when you open octane viewport and it shows whats behind you and not in front viewtopic.php?f=81&t=58996

Thank you

Thanks a lot for all the feedback. I was hoping to have the next test build out this Friday, but one problem was quite hard to track down and fix and it eventually became to late. Unless some other major issues pop up, all looks set for a new test build on Monday. Apologies for the delay.

HI, in what scenario the Adaptive Sampling does not actually affect render time but keep it somehow the same? is there a setting to quick things up? or is AS cleaning more noise in that period of calculation?

[coilbook]

can you guys introduce automatic adaptive sampling check box. For aniamtions

When your renders start, render-time will remain the same for a while until pixels reach the threshold (even past the default 250 samples). As more and more pixels reach the threshold, it slowly gets faster and faster. Speed gain ramps up. You should always have parts of a render that render faster and thus processing power that were used in those areas now concentrate on noisy areas. I have tested in interiors and speed gain can be as much as 15 to 50%. (depending on the usual factors of amount of lights, SSS, glass etc.. )

Play with the threshold setting to find a happy medium between speed and quality. Sometimes you can get away with 0.1, other times 0.05. (0.03 is a pretty good default as it is)
