This is not an issue,
just optimization for HDRI default,
you just need to set the intepretation manually to 32 bit float instead of the 16 bit float default in some case (high EV).
Isn't this setting available in the Max plugin ?

In max when you load the hdr you can change how it stored internally but don't change the render....

32 bit can make the difference:

Using 16Bit can save memory and it works fine in most situations.

I mean for my case...
@Paride : Is there a problem with 443 vs 441 ? I can't have the same render with same scene.

Hi HHbomb,
4.41, 4.43 and 4.44 have the same 3070007 SDK, so there should not be any differences.
I do not know your scene and workflow with HDRI, so it's hard to answer. Would you give more info about it?

Hi Paride.
I send you a scene which render differently with 4.41 and 4.43. This is a hdr problem as with another hdr OR render identically with both 4.41 and 4.43.
But it is strange that renders are different with 4.41 vs 4.43. To re-render the scene I must switch to 4.41.

HDRI is from HDRIheaven https://hdrihaven.com/hdri/?c=clear&h=flower_road

HHbomb,
you're right, 4.41 and 4.44 work differently.
I tried exporting to SA, the issue is as follows:
4.41 has default input 32bit and 4.44 default input is 16bit.
My advice, waiting for Octane 3dsMax plugin 3.08 SDK (I think a handful of days), is to use 4.44, export to SA and switch to 32bit before render.
We absolutely need a 16/32bit RGB image option in Octane 3dsMax plugin.
I will make sure that developers do not forget it.
