...well, we had this in an earlier beta, i I recall it right. It was gone with RD5.

With elongated polygones, stripes appeared.
Now, striping/black patches is back in all it's glory:


The scene can be downloaded here:

This is the exact background from the dinis scene, and it rendered fine in RC5 (and of course it renders fine in other renders).

Hi Kabe,

I just downloaded your scene, enabled physical sky and sun and it rendered without the stripes! Do I have to change something more?

Same problem here...

One step forward a and two steps backward... Not good for C4D users

[lllab]

this explains a lot of troubles i have...

is this only in the c4d plugin translation or on the core app?

You are rendering with V1? That's strange...

the same here: no stripes.

Well, it might have to do with iamge resolution?

I rendered in 640 x 480 or higher, unfortunately you can't set this in the
document.

I get lines too.

ed.

Saw that the name of the camera in the plugin window was spelled with a "k" instead of "c"
is it because it is in german?
Maybe NL does not understand german?

what is it with this noise pattern by the way, is it a workaround to get more stocastic kind of noise distribution?

So, here's the *.mxs - exspecially for the people who were not able to reproduce it:

Have fun - ehm, sort of....

same with that one..

I changed the mesh count on the "Ebene" object, to these values:

With segments 40
height segments 40

Now it looks good.

Cuold the phong tag be?

Did you try to connect to one object the object called "striping" to have one object without deformer?

Sorry, still works fine here.

Of course, but that's not the point. It seems that M~R has quite a limited
accuracy when it comes to small polygones, and these polygones still cover
several pixels in the result. Stuff like this happens a lot with CAD data, and high polycounts are sometimes even neccessary in M~R to avoid banding.

It worked in RC5, and it looks broken in V1.
