Title: Option to turn off Voumetrics in CShading_Beauty
Post by: Jarnold on 2018-03-20, 12:44:02

Hi all,

I think it would be a good option to be able to turn on and off whether Volumetrics are applied to a CShading_Beauty pass much like bloom and glare are.

This would give users the option to render out a version with and without Volumetrics in just one render.
It also makes it possible to set the denoiser to a level that suits the beauty pass without losing too much detail, and then taking the volumetric pass to Photoshop for further denoising before adding them together in PS for maxium control.

Let me know what you think!

Cheers!
Jack

I dont think its possible that way, Volumetrics are not counted as extra thing.
Those are integral part of scene and light calculations once they are aplied.

yep, volumetrics are not postpro, they are integral part of the light transport. You can however use the components render element to get image without them
