Hi, I've tested few projects with latest Octane 2027 and when Neural Radiance Cache is enabled the render gets much brighter. Is it a known issue or something else?

Any chance you can share a scene with me? We have made a couple of NRC fixes that may not have make into the 2027.1 alpha 2 build.

Thanks, I have verified that the next 2027.1 alpha 3 (and also upcoming 2026.5 stable) will have a solution for this.

The original large bias is a result from the neural network not being trained sufficiently, we have introduced a kernel setting allowing users to increase the training count in situations where you are rendering an indoor scenes with not much direct light and mostly rendered with GI.

Thanks for the info! Where in 2026.4 I can find this option?
