hi,

I just noticed that the bump value needs to be much higher when rendering GI with mental ray. Anyone else experienced this? I didn't work with GI before so it can be I missed something

normally the value is around 0.2 or 0.3, more than enough, but when I turn on the final gather the bump value needs to be at least 4 to become visible :surprised

any solutions? this is a problem because when I'm testing with my test-lighting-setup, which renders a lot faster, I need to reset everything to the previous values :cry:

thanks
