Title: Distance no object
Post by: Domenico Tariello on 2021-08-27, 17:17:45
Hello everyone,

I have some issues with this writing "distance no object" that appears during the rendering in the material of the pool water.
I also tried changing geometry and using the water material of corona.

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You need to check the material/maps assigned to the object and check the scene. I cannot tell anything specific by only looking at the image, to me it seems a bump map with Camera Per pixel mapping on the material :)
You can attach the scene for me to check or a simplified version of it, just the problematic object with some surrounding objects. Simplified, yet comprehensive enough to understand the problem.

Regards,
Aram

This simply means that you have a Corona Distance map used in your scene and it has an empty "distance from" list. The solution is to locate the offending Corona Distance map (it must be used somewhere in your water material) and either remove it and replace it with something else, or pick an object to calculate the distance from.

Thank you very much, yes the problem was in that map.
