I was scratching my head over some very weird Z-depth values, and then I came across this:
4.2.20
* Using scene radius with camera for normalising the depth channel.
Could this be rolled back or made toggle-able so that you can use true Z-depth (distance in units/meters from camera)? It's inconsistent for depth compositing and gives weird results. Or at least, could this be made into true Z-depth for EXR export?
Finally, the Z-depth pass doesn't show up when loading the multilayer EXR in Blender. Not sure if this is a Blender or Indigo issue, but what does Indigo name the Z channel when it exports a multilayer EXR?
It should be saved as "depth".
I think I'll add an option in the settings dialog for 'depth normalisation'.

Its been a while since we got an update. Anything in the pipeline to come soon. RTX support, denoising anything? Love indigo but both thea and vray made big updates that's very tempting to switch.

Yeah I will take a crack at denoising soon.
RTX support I will investigate soon also.

Hello
I’m currently working with
render regions and the
indigo console, and I identified 2 issues :
- The spp is defined for the complete image and therefore is always equal to 0. It is a problem for the “-haltspp” option that is not working (the simulation run forever). Can you please give us a halt condition based on the region spp (as displayed in the GUI)?
- When saving results in igi (“-igio” option) the resulting igi file is completely black (0 everywhere)
I think these problems are not limited to 4.2.23 version, I have the same issues with 4.0.66
Thanks for your help

Hi SimonM,
I have recently fixed the region rendering halt issue in the Indigo GUI for Indigo 4.4, but not yet for console. I have added it to our bugtracker and it will be fixed for 4.4.
Re the black IGI, I assume this also happens when using Indigo console? I have added it to out bugtracker.
Best,
Yves

Sorry to bother you, could you add the import of materials in cinema 4d? I have tested over 3000 materials, this material is not imported into c4d. Thanks.

if you use it as external object it seems to render fine

As pixie points out, you could use this as an external material. Not all indigo features are currently supported by the C4D plugin (mostly to do with ISL shader parameters). Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello, any target date to have specular material working with GPU ?
I have a scene that renders at a blazing speed with GPU but since I'm using the FOG material :
https://www.indigorenderer.com/materials/materials/125
I can't use the GPU mode and need to downgrade to CPU. I get 30Mspp with GPU and 1.05Spp with CPU :-(…

Hey fbrunell,
specular materials are supported on GPU since... ever :)
GPU mode only has issues with the IOR that is flat 1.0000...
You can try to surpass this issue (that needs to be fixed for sure!) by raising the IOR up to 1.00001 for example

Zom-B, you gave me a scare for a sec. I though I'd lost the last year processing through CPU instead of GPU for nothing :-).
I tried the FOG material (just loading the material in Indigo and rendering) and even with an IOR of 1.00001, I am not getting the same end result as in CPU (The object is completely transparent).
Maybe the problem is with the scattering shader than.
I've attached the modified FOG material I am using. I modified it to have something that look more like Foam. The version I have attached is with the IOR changed to 1.00001.

no news so far about round corners?

That feature would be awesome.
