do you use skybox lightning ?
Nope, the sun light controls worked perfectly in this case. I love the soft shadows produced in 2.5 but this is all done in 2.4 because of some pesky texture issues I've been running into with the latest build.

Some current progress on the Bella Oceana property.

... completely independent from the renderer: How great it would be to be able to save SkUps entire working environment (including the trays, plugins, etc.) into different sets, which you can load then as desired, similar to Adobe CS does that. That alone would be a step in the right direction for any SkUp user
Now you're just talking crazy lol

Yeah. V-Ray tried to copy what thea did but didn't quite pull it off. Im pretty sure Enscape could definitely pull it off though!

No. I've tried it with the latest version 2.5.1.9-g5aab020 and the 'hard outlines' still occur. I usually put my outlines at 3% to make the edges stand out a little bit, but the outlines render very thick. I reverted back to version 2.4.2.10-g5495b9a untill this get fixed.
Ive been working with support on the same issue Tom. They said theyre going to be adding some kind of convenient way to scale textures up and down depending on need. So im good with using 2.4 until that comes out.

That would require SU and Enscape to perfectly match views, not sure a 2 point perspective will work, and what Ted said.
All the more reason to fix the 2-Point Perspective bug! I know the developer who made it work for Chaos Group. Hes a free agent. He would be happy to help point you in the right direction @Enscape Team... Just sayin.

If it’s implemented correctly. I don’t use in-window rendering in V-Ray because I can’t clearly see the model below the rendering so I can’t make model edits.
If there’s a way to show linework and tool functionality through the render, I’m all for this feature!

jan1 Yeah. It happens with any large .png. So like a 2D background tree or trees with large png leaf sections. Individual geometry doesn’t seem to have the same problems.

I happen to be working on an interior set for a very well know actor. I wont say exactly who the actor is but they’ve been in a few of the Avengers films and help train dinosaurs
This was just the latest test render. But the deliverables on this project are a full .exe walkthrough and screen grabs of the Interior.
I’ll post the full set when completed.

only workaround is to not use asset library vegetation for reflective sufaces ....../sad/
Or anything with a transparent alpha channel. I’ve found that anything with a transparent background results in weird reflections.

Brings back memories of some other software nightly releases.
I have no idea what your talking about

Hi Thomas Schander I see that there is both a 2.5.1 and 2.5.1-Preview version. But the release notes say very little of what the "various bug fixes" actually are. Are there any more in-depth release notes about these versions? I'm having trouble with 2.5 and some material issues, but don't want to upgrade to something new that doesn't actually solve my problems.
Thanks!

Ive been cheating this with a perfectly transparent no reflection no secular material applied to a bounding box and then I don't let the client fly
but I look forward to a good solution being implemented in the future. -
+1 for me too

timeless or the Titan RTX.
My wallet hurts just thinking about it lol

Sure, I'll contact you via PM and give you the address.
Before 2.5 all textures were scaled to max 2048x2048px. If you've used 4k textures all the time - they were scaled down to 2048x2048, thus taking two times less RAM. I hope your model will give us an answer if it's RAM issue or something else.
It sounds like its a ram issue and at some point I'm just running out. Ill send along the model today.

Hi Ted.Vitale
what you observe may be the result of 8k textures support introduced a couple of months ago. Please send us a feedback so we could have a look at the logs to figure out if it is the case.
andybot would be nice to have the scene to test. Please contact support via feedback or me via PM.
Prime this is also interesting, please send us an example scene if it is possible
Sending feedback from the scene now
Doesn't seem to want to send. Is there direct email that might be better to send the file?

I think Julio has the best example. Ill see if I can reproduce the same issue. Right now I'm using 2-4k textures in a medium sized scene and running into the black out texture issue shown above. Alexander Devaykin , I'm running a GTX 1080ti and if its a card RAM issue why would it occur in 2.5 and not 2.4, because of the new texture size limit being increased? I feel like the cap to resolution should be related to the available ram not a generalized limit.

Face me's should not appear in reflections at all. You can avoid this pattern by not using the vegetation material on the geometry in the mirror.
Some are face me others are just 2D flat components with the foliage material. But when I turn it into a dusk scene I want to see that light shine through the trees behind the camera.
well
it will be better to not reflect any of these asset vegetation because of that unhappy reflections and it can be done rather in PS .
can you just turn reflections off from AL vegetation until it will be done properly ?
The goal is visualization in Enscape and the Enscape team has made it clear I. The past their goal is to give good in scene results that they don’t feel the compositing workflow is one they intend to pursue (there are comments regarding this with screen matching issues).
That said I’d like to be able to have high quality reflections of what’s behind the camera. Maybe it’s an advance or capture toggle “enable high quality reflections in export”.
Lumion has a method for this where you choose what surface you want high quality reflections on. Not sure how Enscape might do it but it’s definitely necessary.
