KRAY Surface Presets

I am new to Kray and loving it. However I'm not sure the best way to get surface presets to save with a good THUMBNAIL in LW. Due to the physically accurate method of creating surfaces for KR renderer the thumbnails for lightwave are either black or terrible looking no reflection blur etc. How do ot...

Re: Physical Sky Sun Location

Yea I thought of sunspot after I posted the message. You could setup the parameters to the same settings so that you could see what physky 's position is. When you say physky will follow position, is there anything you have to do to "link" the two lights. Kray and LW? I'm guessing that sun...

Physical Sky Sun Location

Is there a way to add a motion modifier or something to a lightwave light that can be placed in the actual location for the Physical Sky sun location? For reference visually as well as possibly doing other things...ie. have a null/light for after effects reference for flare etc. during exchange. I'm...

Re: Why is Kray Rendering Motion Blur

Yes I think so. Funny thing is Now I'm trying to re-trace steps and I can't get MB to work again! lol. This is an old scene I'm converting and testing from...so who knows.

Probably not a bug of sorts, just a glitch in the matrix! Thanks for pulling me away from the edge of the cliff...

Re: Why is Kray Rendering Motion Blur

ok, I've added a default camera with same settings and the motion blur is gone. I will try and re-track the steps so that if there is a bug through a certain process of changing camera types and settings that Kray is not understanding the bug can be fixed. Stay tuned. Otherwise, Yes if Motion Blur i...

Re: Why is Kray Rendering Motion Blur

Here is a screen grab of every dialog I think would be considered. Let me know if you think there is something somewhere else that could be causing this.

Re: Why is Kray Rendering Motion Blur

The thing is I DON'T want Motion Blur in Kray (It's great to be able to have it with such a simple checkbox), and I don't have MB or DOF turned on in Lightwave. I'm getting pass counts during Kray render depending on quality setting under sampling. Let me take some screen grabs of all important dial...

Why is Kray Rendering Motion Blur

I have a camera with motion in Lightwave, I do not have motion blur turned on, on the camera in Lightwave. I do not see any features in Kray Options to have multiple pass motion blur. However I'm getting blur on objects that are moving close to the camera. I do not want motion blur, I handle that in...

Re: LW 11.6 and Kray 2.5

Can't test past builds but the GOLD final is build 2723 30-oct-2013. This was what I tested and like others blank scene renders correctly but add any geometry and it crashes. Also would suggest to add the 2.51 plugin download on the demo page, as well as whatever the final 2.54 build will be and sta...

Re: LW 11.6 and Kray 2.5

Just simple scene with BOX, not textures or anything. This update also crashes 11.5 which use to work. Can you provide a 2.51 DEMO link on the download page as well as whatever ends up being the 11.6 download version, as they will be different correct?

Re: How do you use the DOF Target option

Janusz is there a feature in KR to export/save the depth buffer, or do you still use the one from LW? Thanks.

Re: How do you use the DOF Target option

oh yes! We just purchased the Lenscare plugin from FIRSCHLUFT. Wow that looks much better than previous efforts with native AFX or other plugins I've used. Yes the post processing will give us much more flexibility and no extra render time! Thank you for your suggestions and experience. Have a great...
