Title: Help! Blocky artefacts from sunlight
Post by: davetwo on 2024-07-30, 12:56:37

I have a scene wih a directional sunlight (physical sun) on a wall. For some reasoin it is causing square artefacts on the wall (see pic).

I have tried changing the wall geo/phong/materials. Plus changing to solver to 4k/path tracing. Plus copying everything into a new file.  Nothing seems to help.

Any ideas?

Did you try unchecking the adaptive light solver in the performance settings? I recall something like this a while ago and this was the issue. Good luck.

Just tried turning the adaptive loght solver off - and it has indeed got rid of those  block artefacts!
Thanks Bengamin for the speedy reply - I though I'd seen a similar problem, but couldn't find it on the forum.
