Denoise doesn't work

@nathanletwory ?

(7.7.21138.11001, 2021-05-18)
Packages are up to date.

Denoise doesn’t work (while it did in former versions).
See here:

@DavidEranen reportedly trouble with denoisers.

Hi @Charles,

Strange. First of all, I’d like you to try this:

  1. Change the sample amount to e.g. 1000.
  2. While it’s rendering, enable the Intel Denoiser.

Will it now denoise?

Second thing to try:

  1. Close Rhino.
  2. Delete all denoisers from %APPDATA%\McNeel\Rhinoceros\packages\7.0\
  3. Start Rhino and make sure no denoisers are loaded.
  4. Install the latest IntelDenoiser version and restart Rhino.
  5. Try to denoise.

Does it work now?

-David

Both tries no success.

@Charles,

What about after you downgrade the IntelDenoiser from 0.6.3 to 0.6.2.

-David

Same.

David, any news on this?

Version 7 SR7
(7.7.21151.13001, 2021-05-31)

Still no luck.

@Charles,

I don’t know what the problem could be. I’m also currently busy with other things, so it will take some time until I can get back to investigating this.

Have you tried deleting/backing up Rhino’s %APPDATA% settings folder? If I remember correctly it’s something like: %APPDATA%\McNeel\Rhinoceros\7\. When the folder is removed, Rhino will generate a new one with fresh settings.

-David

Deleted the settings folder - no luck, still no result from denoise seen in the viewport.
Hmm.

Still no viewport denoise in

Version 7 SR8
(7.8.21160.5001, 2021-06-09)

Any progress on restoring the functionality?

Just installed Intel Denoiser and am trying to use it in Raytraced mode. Set sample count to 30 and my scene looks melted or like it’s been sprayed with fireproofing. A lot of elements in the scene (beams… stairs) have lost their straight edges. Has there been any progress on this?

Can you post your system info? (command line SystemInfo)

Which denoiser are you using?? *intel

That was fast! :slight_smile: My denoiser is IntelDenoiser v0.6.4.

And my System Info is–

Hey Cosmas… try a few more samples (like 200) and make sure the intel denoiser is the one that is working…

the nvidia will only work with rtx cards (to the best of my knowledge) so you may want to uninstall it.

Thank you!
