Highlighting

Post by sanjinms »

Hello!
I'm big fan of Blender and Luxcore rendering. I like a highlight tile rendering but if I uncheck tile rendering there is no highlights. Of course I understand it's impossible without tiles. Is there any possibility to show in rendering windows something highlighted like irradiance contour lines which can be checked in camera settings. Simply I like to watch where is the power of machine concentrated. Sorry for my English... thnx
Btw I used Lux blend

You can enable the Samplecount AOV in the render layer settings:

During the render, you can see how many samples were spent per pixel (procentually) if you select the Samplecount pass.
Brighter pixels have received more samples than darker ones.

Note that the image is only interesting after a certain amount of samples has been rendered, not right after starting the render.
The adaptive samplers use a warmup period (can be configured when noise halt condition is enabled), and before this period is over, they sample uniformly.
