Daily builds version 3

Are you using the AI denoiser by any chance?

Yes, NVIDIA denoiser

Most likely that is causing the freeze, with the image size exceeding the memory on the GPU. For production rendering, I'd recommend switching to the Corona Denoiser, and this should avoid the freeze (and give better quality denoising too :) ). I'd say the best hope is that there will be an elegant error message ("Scene exceeds GPU memory" kind of thing) rather than a freeze in the future, if it's possible to catch it before the AI Denoiser locks up, but that would still need a swap to the Corona Denoiser for production rendering (images above a certain resolution as determined by the available memory on your GPU), but the devs could say more on that. I do have my doubts that there would be any other solution, as I don't think the NVIDIA denoising would support out of core memory.

Would it be possible to know limits of Nvidia denoiser based on amount of RAM that your GPU has? Let's say if i have GPU with 1 GB RAM, i can expect to safely denoise up to 5 Mpx image, with 2 GB - 10 Mpx and so on. Or is it more complex than that?

Hello!
Found another bug when  I bake  all lights from lightmix to scene.

How is your environment light made? Can you share the scene with us? https://corona-renderer.com/upload

Its just a hdri map.
I upload the scene right now.

Yes, NVIDIA denoiser

Its probably your GPU, probably you need one with more RAM.

I experience the same problem with one of my PC's

I have a question specifically for v3 - will the OpenVDB limitations be worked on, and will CIE finally get 16 bit TIF output? I can't see much for v3 as of now and I'm a bit afraid that some long promised stuff won't make it again.

Hi,
16 bit TIFF: yes (believe me, I am annoyed by the slow process on this one even more than you, but we had to completely switch implementation of image loading for this one)
OpenVDB limitations: I cannot guarantee this one, unfortunately

Does today’s release address any of the bugs causing crashes?  I don’t see it listed in the changelog so I thought I’d ask before trying it.

Thanks!
Daniel

Hi, the crashes should be resolved in the upcoming daily build, as well as the artifacts caused by NVIDIA AI denoiser.

Sweet!  Can't wait to get Optix back in my workflow.  Any idea of when?

Cheers,

Now to disable denoise for the IR?
it ruins image quality very soon from the render start

[romullus]

There is checkbox denoise during interactive in render settings>performance tab. Just disable it and it won't denoise anymore.

[Alina Hramyka]

cool! thank you )

At all numbers spinners in VFB not working with values higher than 2 digits/
For example i can't set value 0,05 or -0,05 or 0,15 / 0,25  for saturation spinner, only 0,1  0,2 
or -0,1 - 0.2  -0.3  and etc.
Same thing for other's  settings :)

I noticed that I cant type in VFB especialy in LightMix

[ihabkal]

is anyone having backburner issues? like not rendering at all through backburner? could be my setup...
