very helpful! I reduced my render time down to 1/3 what it was just by raising the noise threshold with no noticeable difference. I feel like I have been cheated all this time! This is a great vid. Will come back to it for reference.

You need more light bounces if the pixels aren’t directly hit by light. For example if you have an interior scene lit only by a small window, then increasing light bounces will ensure less noise in areas that otherwise would receive inadequate light. It’s generally not possible to have settings that are suitable for all scenes. Sometimes you’ll need more min samples, sometimes you’ll need more max samples, sometimes noise threshold will need disabling entirely etc. It’s better to get a deep understanding of which setting relate to which circumstances/problems rather than trying to get a one size fits all approach 👍

@YisenCinema 11 ай бұрын

For sure! Sorry if I gave the impression that these settings work optimally in every scene, I understand they don't. I do believe I say a couple times in the video that you gotta change the settings from scene to scene and that these are just my baseline. Regardless, thats some good feedback and info!

Its good for people who are just starting out and who may not yet know what works best for each scene and just want to lower render times. You can then learn later on what works best for each scene as you test different things out.

You could use an AI Upscaler like "Upscayl" to render in Blender with half the resolution and then upscale the image. This saves a lot of time but needs a Vulkan compatible GPU.

2:30 Pretty interesting. My render Max Samples are at 4096 by default. I am gonna try it for sure for my scenes.

@YisenCinema 11 ай бұрын

Oh dang I didn't realise the default was that high! Realistically the noise threshold will be more impactful and in a simple scene your render time may not change too much because it'll just be fast anyways (but if blender actually tries doing all those 4096 samples in a more complex scene it does take a LONG time)

@lenkrenzler6560 11 ай бұрын

I found that setting my minimum samples to something like 8 actually speeds things up a little. Not sure why, maybe less time testing for noise or less time denoising or something. It's worth trying.

@YisenCinema 11 ай бұрын

Ohh interesting tip! Will have to try it

@leucome 8 ай бұрын

Because 8 is lower than the automatic setting. The automatic setting is a percentage of the total. So in the case of 1024 total samples it will render hundreds of sample without even looking for the noise/quality. By setting the minimum to 8 then it start evaluating the image quality earlier.

Makes sense, thanks for the info!

@nomaanakram8619 4 ай бұрын

Something I've started doing as a last resort for projects where realism and detail don't matter as much, is rendering out my scenes at 60-75% resolution and then upscaling the animation in an AI Video Upscaler, i honestly get some really really amazing results sometimes and it massively cuts down render times for those deadline panics, a few times I've been in a real pinch, i've gone down to 45% resolution and it still looked acceptable getting upscaled to 90% - you can tchnically run that upscaled aniamtion through the AI again to quadruple the resolution but this is where things can start to look a bit mushy and off

Good tips! And a well-made video. I have just a couple of hang-ups. I'd avoid GI approximation; it doesn't meet the quality standards of a modern render. And when you double the output resolution in both directions, you increase the render time four-fold! But your explanation is exactly right; it's a linear function.

Thanks so much for watching and for the info! Personally I like how GI approximation looks most of the time but that might just be me- and the thing about the resolution makes sense yea

@YisenCinema 8 ай бұрын

Yes you can set up the settings in a scene and then save that scene as your default blender file, so when you open blender it will open that scene automatically. For going back to old projects you have to set the settings manually afaik, but it doesnt take too long once you get used to it :) Thanks for watching!

You can go to file > defaults > save startup file after you set the desired base settings, so whenever you open a new blend file the render settings will be there. Hope that helps

Glad it helped! Wait so what value exactly did you set to 1.0? The only one associated with denoising I can see is the "start value" but thats just for viewport. It does sound very bizarre indeed tho, and a useful discovery for you by the sounds of it

@YisenCinema 7 ай бұрын

You might need to lower the noise threshhold more and increase your samples (possibly light bounces too). Flickery noise sounds like a threshhold issue though- 0.01 should be good but maybe you need 0.001 if its super intense
