Daily Builds 1.0 - 1.4

int interactive.minRenderTime = 33
Is there a reason why this shouldn't be set to 1 just to force as fast updates as possible?

when setting it to zero and moving around too fast, you would get caught in a loop:
view changed, stop render -> parse new camera/object position/... -> re-start rendering -> view changed, stop render after 5 pixels were rendered total -> ...

So you would get faster FPS, but nothing would be displayed

It's important just to be sure it doesn't make anything worse. You should improvement especially in long time convergence as you can now have enough GI samples per AA sample in IR while still having fast enough feedback as first pass always renders only one secondary ray per AA ray.

Regarding float interactive.giSamplesMult = 1.00 - Yes, you want to decrease it for stuff like DoF and MB, but if you have DoF or MB heavy scene, you will likely want to decrease it for your production rendering mode, not just IR. Having interactive.giSamplesMult set to 1.00 means it will simply use production GI/AA value, so if you have heavy Dof Scene where you have your GI/AA set to 4 for production rendering, GI/AA will be 4 in IR as well (after first pass).

Fakt. ;)

Jaaay, one of my bugs made it to the finals :D

Jaaay, one of my bugs made it to the finals :D

I had a feature request make it in (DRSpawner installed by default) but it's not a bug, so doesn't count haha

Anyway, nice to be a small part of the development.

well if you made some contribution in the bug hunt you can still get a discount ;)

Well I definitely won't say no...! That's great customer service!

Just had an issue where save all flyout didn't show up in Corona VFB. It stayed invisible even after restarting scene or creating new one. It was cured only by restarting 3ds max. Although invisible, flyout still were functional as i was able to save elements by moving and releasing mouse roughly where save all should be. Cannot reproduce though.

Looks like it happens everytime max session stays open for prolonged time. Once this bug occurs it cannot be healed even with scene reset. Application restart is required for save all flyout to reappear again.

Should i report this on mantis?

[Ondra]

yep. Time estimate would be helpful ;)

[romullus]

Xoxo, time estimate... well, it should be several hours i think.

Is it possible to have official hotfix for .CBIN proxies? We have much trouble to convert all our project files to .CPROXY through downgrading to 1.2.1 every time. And daily build is not a good idea for production I think.

[fobus]

Anyone? PLZ FIX CBIN.

[Ondra]

I thought the fix was in the last daily...?
