Shadow issues

monkeyman905 · August 14th, 2008

I have playing with the camera setting and its now got really bad shadowing/ blotching. How can i correct this? Is it a texture error or a vray settings error?

Thanks phil

it could be many things

start with correcting your "colour bleeding", which is the main problem atm.

Thanks for the reply so if i change the saturation to say 0.7 or 0.6 this should help with the bleeding?

nope Philip.

u need to read about mat bleeding and how to use "vray mat override", which is perhaps the best solution... I beleive.

Hi, Was just reading up on this is it the floor i need to add this to or all the materials?

Eric Sosa · August 14th, 2008

humm.. not only the floor, in this particular case, all the mat that "bleed", including black.

hi philip

Search for Vray color bleeding tutorial on net.

i'm unable to send u the link for the tutorial.

HI, yea i think i have seen it the red floor one? How can i tell which material is causing the "bleeding". Is it the material which the bleeding appears on or will it always be a material causing the bleed from bouncing light appearing on that one?

thanks again

bigger surfaces bleed more than smaller, you foor bleeds a lot, dunno what color u'r walls are , cos so much bleeding

...as u can see all look redish, just like u'r floors GI

the black parts bleed too as u can see in the walls where the black is close, etc.

again, whenever u fix the bleeding, u'll be able to see other problems.
