Settings for depth buffer when using HDRI?

Post by fabian-pok »

Hi guys,

Does anybody know the correct settings for the depth buffer when using HDRI output? We having a bit of a problem when using it in After FX. (or others) It keeps fully white... even with using different levels and stuff.

I know it has something to do with this:

Clip back -1m means infinity. Try Clip back 100m or whatever fits your scene best. If you want you can also save HDR z buffer with postprocess savez,'filename.hdr';

Thanks, Ive been trying to do this, but for kray animations rendered through LWSN, which lightwave saver to use? neither RLA nor HDR seem to save the Zbuffer channel (I did activate it on the kray buffer panels)

Any ideas?

PS: no need to reply, I assumed that Kray only used the LW saver when using LWSN, but it does use both, all works great now, using .HDR with Z buffer in AFX.
