Am I missing a setting? I get zero light and a black sky when the sun is lower than the horizon (or the light is lower than its target).

thanks

hi there,
opening MAX, I get this notice about douplicated plugin path...For Dremascape and the other particle plugin...

I checked my path preferences, but I cannot find a reason why the notice.

How do I fix it?

thank you

regards,

giovanni

Ok, I've never seen this before... maybe someone can help out. At times there are dark stripes in the ocean. I was wanting to do a ariel shot of the ocean but then ran into this. I tried playing with the sub surface but that has nothing to do with it. But sometimes adjusting the bump map on the material helps but when you rotate the camera they appear again.

Kresimir, you can delete the other account I made which is treed_85. I accidently made two.

Is it possible to use volume light with AB?

As a registered user of 2.1, how do I obtain the update? Thanks!

Hi
I'm having big problems with subsurface. The scene renders fine locally, but net rendering gives me the subsurface only on frame 1. Subsequent frames are rendered as if subsurface is not present. Am I missing a setting? Or could this be a bug? I'm rendering with FinalRender.

I just tried rendering from a different frame. For example, if I render frames 50 and 51, 50 is ok but there's no subsurface in 51. It's the same for both the Simple and Physically Based models.

Thanks

PS There's some problem with the forum. I've tried to resign twice, but I always get a mailer error. It won't post me my password either.

First off I would like to thank sitni sati for their hard work on 2.5. I just love the new subsurface and foam system. I just have a question regarding the DS Sun and volume light. It would be extremely powerful if I was able to use volume light (specifically fr-volume light) in conjunction with the DS Sun and 3D clouds. I want rays of light emanating from the DS Sun and through the 3D clouds. So far I see no volume light when using 3dsmax native volume light. final render's volume light crashes the computer. I have a dual 3.4ghz xeon with 2gb RAM and a Nvidia Quadro FX 3000. Is this possible with the current version of DS? I would BUY Dreamscape 3.0 if this option was possible. So this would be my wishlist for dreamscape 3 along with a Seascape for making small creeks and rivers that can run downhill and you can bend it any angle you want.

It's impossible to animate the noise of the sea bump map?

thanks
