A Apply a displacement map Apply render passes to imported softimage3d 3x scenes Area lights sampling between frames produce undesirable noise effect flickering Associate objects to a common material Avoiding bouncing light from toon objects with textures in an fg scene B Bad refresh with rendered hair Bsp acceleration method in laymans terms C Cannot motion blur objects imported from si3d Cannot render more than 3 levels of transparencies in scanline mode Cannot crop mental ray map image clips Cannot see vertex colors in realtime shaders ogl view mode Cant open file for reading system cant find the file Changing the ground picture in a legacy environment shader Create a volumic light effect with a constant start and end falloff D Displacement mapping tip converting an rgba image to grayscale Displacement map effect Distributed rendering with sprite shader results in empty tiles from slave E Entering colors in 0255 range Environment shader is visible through a transparent object

F Flickering effect appears in final gathering result H How to render a basic wireframe in xsi How to render a batch of mi2 files through the xsi command prompt How to render orthographic views I Inclusive/exclusive lights within partitions Instance appears in render when in a hidden layer Irix network rendering with mental ray Is there a way to measure the distance a ray has traveled via a color map related questions Is there a way tell batch which licenses to use L Legacy environment shaders appear upside down Lens flare shader how to create a virtual radius area lights N No 2d post process motion blur on objects No bump when using bumpmap generator with spatial texture projection No shadow cast onto toon surface O Object placed behind layers of transparent surfaces is not visible when rendered Object with primary rays off still renders the truth about transparency secondary rays Optimal settings for fast update of render region P Partitions: Unable to delete partition Preview using the camera from the camera viewport Problem with fg accuracy and render vertex color results

R Reflection pass not functioning Render a wireframe with a toon shader effect Rendered images in wavefront format contain wavefront extensions Rendering artifacts with legacy atmosphere shaders Rendermap does not seem to work with final gathering or caustics Rendertree connecting an image to the displacement parameter Render tree controlling the displacement mapping height Render tree node positions not getting saved with scene S Satellite tile acceleration doesnt work on linux Sprite shader causes xsi to crash in softimage xsi v30 Switch cameras at specific frames T Tearing appears in displacement mapping result Textures from surrounding object show on transparent objects The specular of an object is still visible when the material is transparent Tips and tricks when using final gathering U Using the anisotropic material shader with polygonal objects V Volume effects when light is projecting texture Volumic lights do not cast volumic shadows volume penetrates surface holes W When adding transparency specular still shines When a movie or avi file used as a texture it is missing from the rendered images
