Hi there,

Which specific passes should be connected to the albedo and normal inputs of the Open Image Denoise node? I assume it’s the Diffuse Filter for albedo and Smooth Normal for normal, but I’d like to clarify this to be sure.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Michael,

You will need to set the Render AOV input nodes as:

Denoise Albedo (Beauty - surfaces | Denoise albedo)
Denoise Normal (Beauty - surfaces | Denoise normal)
