Bloom Filter Help

I am making an image playing with DOF and the bloom filter, When I am rendering after about 40 minutes this happens to my image....Any ideas why this is happening ?

    Not something I have seen before.

    Are you using denoising?

    You said that it started after a while, which got me thinking of denoiser.

    There was an issue earlier with denoiser and certain drivers, so it is possible that this is something similar.

    Which driver version are you using?

    Doesn't that post-denoiser alpha do some janky stuff sometimes? I thought they wouldhave removed that... Uncheck it and give it another go.

    I did that but again everything was ok then it seemed to explode into this bright light again...I might have to give it a miss this time :(

    I see the Bloom is set to One; how about Section caps and Caustics? I have gotten this before; I would delete the environmental and tone mapping, set render settings to default, and then redo the settings. I think it was one of the two I mentioned: section caps and caustics.

    Somewhere around 536, I do believe.

    Yeah, DS's default bloom settings are WAY off what they should be.

  • AgitatedRiotAgitatedRiot Posts: 4,437

    Default is 0.050

    Bloom Filter Radius 0.015 ~ 0.025 works well in most of the cases... and try to increase Bloom Filter Threshold to  >7500.

    Besides, pls check if you were rendering with CPU...
