pesky white blotches appeared from nowhere!??

[sygboe]

Hi, i'm using max and vray.

ive been working on a scene for a while. all was ok, until i imported some geometry from another scene (were previously in the same scene).

 

now these light blotches appear. the settings all look the same to me, and i cant tell how or why they've appeared now.

 

can anyone help please?

could be a grouping error...or perhaps you imported a raytrasce material as a hitch hiker...

 

ungroup the models that came in, if they are grouped...and go through the scene materials to make sure there aren't any raytrace materials in there...
