My scene scale is 1. Everything is built full scale. It renders fine except when I have a direct spot light over it. I am using it as an Instance as there are many of them. So, there could be an issue there...speculation though. I can post it. It will be awhile though. Thanks for offering.

I don't think emitters work as instances.

Edit: Nevermind... I read your post wrong.

I have experienced weird glass rendering with glass as instances. There was a scene I was working on and I had a glass door unit that was instanced and used in many places in the scene. Sometimes the glass panels in some of the doors would render black.

Yes. I have the caustic layers turned on.

I did notice that I had the instance color set to definition color rather than the instance color, in Form-Z.

I switched back to instance color. It appears to be rendering ok now.

It is still early on in the rendering. I will know for sure in the next few days if it is better.

Thanks,

Aaron
