no problem

ill see what i can do about it.

Here goes the textures of the scene (they are way bigger, so I had to downsize them)


On another remark, exit portals doesn't seem to work anymore...

I´m just wondering if displacement works correctly,either i´m making mistakes or it´s not working correctly, but to see results, i have to set the value for displacement maps to 1.1

If someone could just quickly test if i am stupid, would be fine

make sure your scene scale is correct! bump and displacement values are in mm. you could also try to reduce the curvature_threshold in the subdiv tag (to 0.001 for example), it worked for me.

It´s just, with every new release i try to render old scenes, and in those scenes the displacement isn´t working correctly anymore. I just want to point that out to see if you made any changes (mit absicht oder nicht). So i tried old scenes and i saw i had to change the value from 0.1 to 1.1 oO

Edit and i modell in cm so the bump has to be in mm

did i say "mm"? heh, i meant m (meters).

you know that theres a global scale in the render settings object? if you model in cm youll have to set it to 0.01.

edit: i checked it again, all scales are correctly exported, so if theres a problem, its most likely in your scene ^^

edit subdiv parameters:
max_num_subdivisions: 10
subdivide_pixel_threshold: 0
subdivide_curvature_threshold: 0.001
displacement_error_threshold: 0
subdivision_smoothing: false
view_dependent_subdivision: false
wrap_u: false
wrap_v: false

Well pixie, I don't have any problem with the materials on your scene, Cinema only tells me tha a global illumination plugin is missing, but I don't know what plugin is that.
I changed material type, albedo, even maps and no problem at all.
I think that your global illumination plugin is causing the damage.
Do you have any other scene with the same problem?

i dont think so. "global illumination" plugin is a part of R11, i think. also this seems to be a R11 issue. it wierd, tho, becuase for some R11 user these scenes work without problems, too.

I tried exit portals and have no problem with the ligth in the scene but I can't see anything behind the exit portal mesh like a tree or walls, Is that the way exit portal works in Indigo or is an exporter bug?

its the way the exit portal works. you shouldnt have any geometry behind an exit portal.

Thanks fused, that's bad news for me because I work with interior rendering and sometimes I have objects outside the room that cast shadows inside it.

@fused: Thanks with the settings you posted it works

ive been working a bit on the external igm feature.

it works like this: you select an igm file, which is then parsed. you can select any material within this file from a drop-down list.

edit: pics

Awesome work man, awesome work

thanks, dude!
