Thank you for sharing your workflow, much appreciated.👍

Another possible solution, I’ve noticed if I’m rendering into the media encoder to a compressed format (.h264) it has a higher potential for problems. I’ve found rendering directly out of AE into a ProRes format can fix certain issues.

Alexey, Sorry it’s been a while, and I usually post answers when I figure out answers here. I don’t remember exactly how this was solved. I think I played around with the samples in AO – RTAO and multisampling? I might have even hit a block and reverted to SSAO in AO. Sorry I can’t be more help. Good luck

Yeah, it was previously an octane model, and I adapted for Redhshift. It’s buried in the project. I was just hoping I could do a search vs. going through model layers. Thanks

Thanks for the feedback Kouraib, I’ve gone through and looked at the render settings, object manager and did not see anything. I also deleted any unused materials, and the few that are there look good. It seems like if there is a number associated with plugin, it would be something that I could search and locate. Thanks again

Okay, so I scaled up the object by 200%, and thought I had it figured out, but seems like it’s getting worse. Render freezes with obvious similar and more apparent artifacts. Strange, while previewing different frames in timeline, doesn’t present problems. But when I render, the whole thing crashes. I have a pretty good graphics card, that is listed as a supported card.

Nvidia Quadro P4000 / 32 GB RAM. Intel i7 7700K cpu 4.2 GHz

Anyone seen something like this before?

Ahh, that was it… didn’t see I had scaled just the z scale on the null. Thanks!

Duhhh… Needed to normalize scale… overlooked that for some reason
