[Max] Bug Reporting / Bug in the CShading_Component and Glass (with MAX file)

« on: 2016-07-27, 21:43:35 »

Hello...
Maybe I'm wrong, but, there are some problem in the CShading_RawComponent, CShading_CourceColor  and transparent shader.
From what I know:

CESSENTIAL = RawComponent * CShading_SourceColor

So,

(*) CESSENTIAL_Relfection  = RawComponent_Reflection  *  CShading_SourceColor_Reflection
(*) CESSENTIAL_Refraction = RawComponent_Refraction  *  CShading_SourceColor_Refraction
(*) CESSENTIAL_Transflucency = RawComponent_Transflucency  *  CShading_SourceColor_Transflucency

(*) CESSENTIAL_Direct+CESSENTIAL_Indirect = RawComponent_Diffuse  *  CShading_SourceColor_Diffuse

Look at this scene and the Render elements:

(*) No Exposure and no Contrast.
(*) Glass is simple plane with "Thin" option ON .
(*) alpha mode: default.
(*) Visible in masks: on.

Ok, this is the CESSENTIAL. Everithing is ok!
If I add all these RE, I will obtain the BEAUTY pass.



Now, it's the time for the CShading_RawComponent Look at ... where is the tree in the DIFFUSE and TRANSLUCENCY pass?  O_O 



Ok, try to disable Visible in masks for the window glass.
Mmm... now I can see the tree in the DIFFUSE and TRANSLUCENCY pass, but I have lost the window reflections...



And, another problem. There are some small differences in these composed Render elements.
I think they they must to be exactly the same. There are some AA problem, in the shiny parts...

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Bright RGB (high ALBEDO) and better rendertime??? Why? (with MAX file)

« on: 2016-07-26, 15:01:06 »

Hello,
as in the title, if I use bright RGB value, I have a better rendertime, for the same noise level.
And, the difference is HUGE!!!

PT+UHD (noise lever= 2%)

RGB= 128, 128, 128 ---> 17 minutes (515 passes)
RGB= 230, 230, 230 ---> 2 minutes (45 passes)



PT+PT (noise lever= 8%)

RGB= 128, 128, 128 ---> 6 minutes (125 passes)
RGB= 230, 230, 230 ---> 11 minutes (40 passes)

Isn't strange?
