Hi there.
As it is now, Corona's portals introduce more noise than regular lights. And I was wondering why?
Could we have portals that gather the average of light behind them and cast it just like a light, also blocking any other light by treating the portal geometry as opaque for other light sources?
In a common case:
I have a medium size window. If I put a rectangular light mimicking the skylight I get almost no noise. If instead I use a Corona sun with corona sky, or an HDRI, I get tons of noise. Even when adding a portal to the window, the noise is very noticeable.
So could we have a portal that just gathers the average intensity and color of the light behind it, and casts it forward like a regular light?
Thanks.
