burnt pixels suppression in post settings

[Utroll]

I know it won't be the most needed feature ever but I've been recently playing with Nox render, very similar to maxwell, and there's a feature to automatically spot and kill fireflies from render VFB post panel. That feature with a slider to fade the effect might be usefull.

All in all I was not convinced by Nox (unstable, tried three times, crashed three times) but the VFB is very promising and sexy.

there is already the highlight compression parameter for that

It's not the same, he's asking for what is rather "speckle removal" tool. I have to say NOX does indeed has some interesting features in frame-buffer, but I wasn't otherwise interested in even trying it.

[Utroll]

well it's not bad but it's not fast neither, it's 95% maxwell aka slow but pretty, and not stable (on my machine at least).
Anyway that was just wondering as most 'beginners' with corona post about fireflies, or when you've launch a big render and notice after 24h that you you have some, it could be convenient to fake/solve it quickly rather than relaunch render or stamp stamp stamp with image editing softw.

Are you discussing the burnt-out white pixels on reflective areas??

My example


I am looking for this  "highlight compression" feature in v .5 but cannot find the field for it...

Vray has a "Max ray intensity" setting to supress fireflies

Any solution?

[Utroll]

you'll find what you're looking for in render settings  : MSI = max sample intensity (put it down) and lower in the post tab you'll find contrast / highlight comp / ... you can tweak them during rendering, or even after (doesn't work after render in VFB+ though)

I was more talking about a automatic stamp feature,  not really 3d related, but usefull in your exact case : go  on fancy postprod without the boring cosmetic step nor relaunching.
