Nodes

Post by ana028 »

Hi all, I'm testing my new kray, I read last day in the forum that Kray failed yet with new materials such as dielectric node. But I make a test with a little complex node and the new IFW nodes and kray works perfectly. Here is the little test and the result. I think that in the future this littles bugs will be resolved. But the standard nodes works fine for the moment.

It's not about complexity. Nodes which are not using ray-tracing should work. Dialectric and other materials get their result by using ray-tracing functions to learn what geometry is close to them. I have feeling that Kray uses improper/different near clip value than LW, thus ray-tracing function return immediately inside of geometry which casted new ray. See what happens with Occlusion node. Render LW and leave frame preview window on screen. And then do the same in Kray.
