I dont see Firefly filter working...
Progressive options dont work (as in 1.8 version) too...
Compraison testing dont show different between base and twiked frames. May be i dont understand something?
Have you any illustrations of this technologys?

Hi

i included all Options, because some people use a stand alone Version. Not all Options work in 3dsmax+iray. It give no documentations about firefly filtering. The FireFly Filtering Option is from here http://forum.mentalimages.com/showth...UI-integration , and i hope it works. 3dmax give me no errors. If my Script wrong, please tell me and i fix it.

Deactivate firefly filtering? Does that mean it is active by default? If it is, then it does a very poor job filtering those fireflies

[thorsten hartmann]

but i have test here, and i think iray 2.0 is better iray 1.2

[rawalanche]

Might be, but if there is a firefly filter then why do i still see lots of fireflies?

[thorsten hartmann]

a my last Scene: Kigali Restaurant, with iray 2.0, looks very good. What we do is, trail and error, because we have not a decumentation about all the features. The Autodesk mental ray help, have not the newest infos.

Will the Iray manager work with Max 2013? I have found that in Max 2013 the Iray has fixed the issue of the GPU /CPU my Video card was never noticed before and the CPU did all the work not so in Max 2013. I was wondering If the Iray V2 Manager will work in Max 2013? Thanks

i am very busy at this time, and have not install 3dsmax2013. I will do the updates at the next weekend, and than i can tell more about new functions.
