Munz Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 I am working on an animation and right now am rendering out every 50th frame with the read/write FG settings to save my FG solution. a couple of the frames have spots as shown on the image I attached. Does anyone know why this is happening and suggestions on how to fix it? thanks munz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelperfectg Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 What type of materials are used on the objects sitting on that tray? If it's anything other than the A&D material then switch it/them out for an A&D material. If you're already using all A&D materials, then are you using the cutout function on any of those materials on/near the tray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Have you got everything UVW mapped? I had a problem with that before and it was because I had applied a material to an object without giving it a UVW map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovzoc Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Increase your GI ... You can see splotches to the walls... Maybe this is the reason of the spots... If it insists try another angle and bake your GI map with some closer shots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywalker Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Your GI map needs to increase and maybe the type of material you are using is not uv mapped. I would also check to see if your using any other unusual reflective material that is not compatible with vray............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munz Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 thanks, I will give some of these things a try. All the materials on the tray are A&D Materials. I increased the FG and on the comforter I removed the smooth modifier and added a turbo smooth modifier. and I removed the water bottle not very important. I will post the results when it is done... munz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know why this is happening and suggestions on how to fix it? thanks munz Is this original max 9? There was a bug in interpolated reflections that could look like this in original unpatched max 9. And it looks as if you are using interpolated reflections on the bedsheet!? That doesn't make much sense... use the "Highlights and FG only" mode for that kind of thing! /Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munz Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 I am using Max 9 and have installed Sp1, Sp2, and the Productivity Booster. I will try tweaking the bed comforter material. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munz Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 MasterZap, That worked using FG & Hightlights only. thanks. I have attached the updated image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
