Re: Toolbag 4 - Ray Traced Shadow Artefacts
@Sidney Eliot Generally speaking, these shadow issues are fundamental to all renderers, not specific to Toolbag. There are some tricks that can be done in raster rendering engines to soften shadow faceting somewhat, but as you note in the last part of your post it's a problem there too. The software can only render shadows… -
Re: Toolbag 4 - Ray Traced Shadow Artefacts
Now, let's say you can't edit the topology for whatever reason. You're not necessarily out of luck.

Any rough estimate on when it will leave beta testing? Also, I'm happy that both PCs and consoles are getting stronger and stronger over the… -

Toolbag 4 - Ray Traced Shadow Artefacts
Hi, I've recently moved up to Toolbag 4 and love the ray tracing capabilities, but keep getting these horrible shadow artefacts only when ray tracing is enabled. It's as if the lighting is looking at a hard-edged version of the model to light rather than taking into account the normals properly with the textures. With ray…
