Excellent video! Thank you. I'm stuck with an issue: I made an animated fire with niagara, and with path tracing during editing it works fine, but when I render with movie queue it just isn't showing. If I render 5 frames, in the last frame the fire begins to emerge. Is there a way the render just skips the first few frames and render just one frame when the fire is at it's full size?

Great info as always! You mentioned multi RTX GPU support at the end. Do we need to run SLI or is this more like Redshift/Octane where UE can spread rendering out to multiple GPU's enabling them? I only see one of my cards being utilized in MSI Afterburner but have 2 others idling when I click Render (Local) in MRQ.

@JonathanWinbush 10 ай бұрын

I just have 1 gpu so I'm unable to test it but from looking at the documents it can do up to 2 gpu's right now and it doesn't need to be sli but I'm unable to confirm I just have 1 4090 in this machine

@ryanenoscreative 10 ай бұрын

@@JonathanWinbushDoesn't seem like there is an easy way to enable multi-GPU support purely for pathtrace rendering. There seems to be a way that requires some setup in Nvidia Control Panel and/or customizing the UE DefaultGame.ini to look for 2 GPU's but I need to dig more. I'll follow up if I find a solution, may end up getting an SLI connector to pool 2 3090's VRAM for larger scenes at some point too. Thanks again.

Awesome video, everything I needed to know, explained with no fluff or bad jokes. But I do have one crit - Max Path exposure of 1.0 means that none of your emissive objects get calculated as brighter than 1.0, is that right? Coming from offline renderers I can say that they have a setting just like that. I never use anything as high as 30 but I like to have at least 2.0 or 3.0 to get the effect you want from glowing things

@schmoborama 2 ай бұрын

100% agree on denoisers too, I've always hated them. Disney uses them, but properly ; if the noise in an image is obvious, then it's too much for a denoiser to fix. They raise settings until it's barely visible, then finish it with denoise. And that's for animated movies, which don't have as much detail to lose, like photoreal renders do.

@JonathanWinbush 2 ай бұрын

Possibly I'm still learning alot everyday but I'll have to check the documentation out on it. It's been awhile since I've used redshift or octane so my knowledge of offline is alittle dated.

Hello Winbush, I have a seen setup using the kitbash3d assets. It is pretty dense. I have some Niagara particles set up for thrusters of the spaceship. When I turn on path tracer, it just sits there with the pixelation. Does path tracer handle Niagara CPU and GPU sprites and meshes? Thanks in advance

I see you have emissive objects. I have some in 5.1 using Lumen to render and the light from the emissive objects reflects off some nearby metal materials and the reflection flickers. And the farther away the emissive object, the more it flickers. Is there any way to solve that? Maybe in path tracer that won’t happen?

@NK-hq7zn Жыл бұрын

Try these console variables with hardware ray tracing enabled r.Lumen.ScreenProbeGather.ScreenTraces 0 r.Lumen.Reflections.ScreenTraces 0
