It's either you don't know what feathered region render is, or there is something wrong with my installation... :/

Here is the same picture with marked region borders. Actually you can see them if you zoom the picture.

You are right, region on the picture IR_zoomed_region-2.jpg is not in the same position as on IR_zoomed_region-1.jpg, I stopped render and started it again, so the zoomed region not exactly on the same place, but zoom factor is the same

Merry Christmas to all of you guys!

[Christa Noel]

Thanx bormax :)

May God bless corona and you all guys
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I wonder if anyone finds current implementation of feathered region render useful? Now if i try to use it, it gives nasty heavily undersampled pixels towards region edges, which makes this feature completely useless.

I'm not getting undersampled pixels like you, but I'm not getting feather region either. It looks like area just one pixel larger then selected region. You can easily see this with clear VFB inbetween renders turned on.

That's because you're not using feathered region. Maybe it's not very intuitive, but once you set region, hold CTRL and drag region border. Additional green rectangle should appear, indicating that now you're using feathered region.

I suspect the same might apply to Bormax's case, but i just gave up to investigate that :/

Oh I see. I did hold down CTRL but I thought you just start new region with CTRL. Let's retest.
Yes, you are right, same thing here, nasty artifacts on the edges:

I'm on the latest beta now and don't like the new fb behaviour on IR when pressing "Tools" on and off. The render size is changing which is really a downstep to me compared to 1.5. Is this a bug or desired feature?

A feature. To prevent window resizing when having window maximized. But it's true that it wasn't well thought through in regards to interactive rendering.

[PROH]

Yes, this is quite irritating. It also means that IR is restarting every time you open or close the "tool" tab. Not good for an efficient workflow :(

Pity! I liked the old behaviour much more.

[Ondra]

do not worry, we can do something about it for IR ;)

Latest daily. 3ds 2014

For some reason batch render failed to save light mixer render layer and saved only beauty in the right derectory.

It have not even been saved in the default 3ds maxes derictory. I think there is slight bug crawling out there. Or there is something wrong with 3ds.

about the zoom_feature with int vfb - can you disable it, if you don't want to focus the sampling on parts of the whole image, but accidentally resize the vfb-framebuffer?

its just a question up-front. I had not the time to play with 1.6db yet

[romullus]

It's just for interactive rendering. You can safely zoom in/out while doing regular rendering - it won't affect sampling.

[cecofuli]

Max 2017 + v1.6 1december = no zoom in Interactive VFB... why?
