White Borders On Trees

[kocabiyik]

Hi, i have white border problem on trees and i can't solve it.i tried alpha source =none, corona outputmap, but problem isnt solved.(Note : CUPRESSUS tree is not have opacity map , only colour but it have white border too..)

Seems like I had similar problem with white borders and global volume mat.

The reason was - refraction used in leafs material due to use of automatic converter for evermotion models/vray materials.
Check leaf material setup. If refraction used - remove it(refraction shouldn't be used for leaf - use translucency), should solve problem.
That's the only idea I have.

did you render with black background or some sky backplate?

I think this is happening because of the opacity map.
Even if you are using a diffuse map the diffuse color is still affecting the outer border of you opacity map.

Change the diffuse color to a darker green similar to your texture using for the leaves.

I can only guess but I think it is in connection inside you opacity map settings. (clipping maybe) ?

If its not the problem of the leaves it will be the environment.
Try not rendering your sky into you image. (visibility settings in the environment tab)

Try filtering on your opacity map, it should help a little bit..
But this happens to me as well, so you can use a little trick with photoshop : Control click your alpha image (which will select white) then go control shift I to inverse selection and then modify selection - expand (1-3px) depending on your resolution ..  then you can use soft brush with black color to get rid of these pixels causing trouble..  It takes some time to get it done nicely but its worth it I guess..

Good luck!

Guys, when you say about problems with opacity map you're missing one important thing - "Note : CUPRESSUS tree is not have opacity map , only colour but it have white border too.."

So that's not opacity map and I don't think it's some alpha channel problems. I had exactly same problem when there was refraction in leaf material. Notice that some leafs not only have white border - they are completely white at grazing angle.
I was a bit wrong in my first reply - global volume mat made those borders better visible in that particular scene, but the problem was there all time and it described above.

Are you using Photoshop to remove background? If so, then this topic was discussed a million times. :)
