Hi all

 

I've setting up a interior scene with vray...The lightning wasn't perfect, but it was acceptable in my pc...but when I send it to other people everyone says it is too dark...

 

I wonder if my pc might have some problem in the screen settings...:confused:

 

thanks a lot

Another possibility is that the other PCs have a different version of the same image. I've had that before. It can cause flickering or lighting problems if you are deriving lighting from the image. Try manually deleting the image off the other computers. Also - if you are using a CRT monitor - and you have the Adobe Gamma control pannel - run that and see if it fixes things.

 

Good luck,

when you say "send it to someone else's machine" are you referring to a rendering process either a farm or ditributive, or are you referring to having a finsihed image.... jpgs or likewise, and simply viewing it on someone else's screen?

 

It's always fun when one of our designers tell us it's too dark or our colors are wrong and then it turns out their monitor settings are completey messed up.

Sorry, I wasn't specific - I was deliriousy tired at the time.

 

I was refering to when you use a render farm to render your animation. Sometimes - for reasons I don't want to admit or don't understand - one or more of the machines on the render farm get a newer version of one of the texture images. then 1 out of X frames will have a different map.

 

If that is the case just delete all the images from that machine and the next time you send the job to render - make sure that "include images" is checked in the network render dialog box.
