In some renders I get these strange rifts showing up on a render as shown in the attached. I've gotten it with just simple flat finishes as well.
What is this and why do they show up, can someone help me. Thanks

Hi qrk5,

As far as I know, there are only two possible reasons for this:

1. Emitters with too many faces - simplify the emitter geometry
2. insufficient SL - let the render continue, these artifacts will disappear

Try letting the render reach SL 12-14, these should no longer be visible by then.
