Hi.

I tested "Idea" scene (Octanebench v2.17) using OR demo v2.24... I detected many strong noises at lamp showed due to be very bright but less noises = better at lamp hidden.

See differences between 3 images
Lamp showed: it's normal but abnormally more noises at 1500 S/px.

Lamp hidden: less yellow is issue but goodly less noises despite same S/px.

Lamp hidden with fake shadows (=fake caustics): it's normal but 1st image is differents to last image because true caustics (= fake shadows disabled) is much more realism than fake caustics

-camera settings with linear preset except exposure 1.850, gamma 2.200 and vignetting 0.000 but look specular and diffuse materials and PMC settings - look 3 images

I wait you'll fix these issues for PMC kernel.

NOTE: I tested Path Tracing and this kernel hasn't any issue despite noises and 10k samples/px.

Any response.

Just a heads up that the dev team is pretty busy getting ready for the release on May 15th.

Ok.

If V3 fixes these issues then I'll pay 416euro by OR v2+plugin v2 for Blender and later I will upgrade FREE to v3. Upgrade of v3 should be free because PMC kernel of v2.x has errors.

I'll buy OR v2.x stand+plugin for Blender by 416 euro soon

Sorry, I've bought standalone only (not plugin) because my father said me 416 euro is expensive. But I'll upgrade to standalone v3 on this month or next month.

I tried to new demo v3.00 and I got better performance by 1.7x than full version of v2.25 at PMC kernel but unfortunately v3.00 doesn't reduce strong noises colored yet at idea showed!?!

v3.00~3.08 don't fix PMC issue yet.
