Hey maxwellers, rendering a spiral staircase for a job, using 2 emitter planes, anyone know what the streaks are from on the left hand side, or know how to get rid of them?

Cheers

Brett

Jpg compression Is it like this right out of maxwell?
If not save in a different format and see if still happens!

Edit:
I take it you do mean the banding on the background?

Yes, thank you 4 hero, I have been rendering to png but the client wants jpg, probably better to render to png then convert to jpg, thanks for the replies guys, i thought it was sometning else.

I always save out renders to 32 bit hdr format. Then you have the most color depth to work with in Photoshop. When you save out as png, it is 8 bit.
