Area lights jitter vs Radient Power (W)

[Rizon Parein]

Hello,

I have a scene with visible area lights, the higher i put the Radient Power the more jitter the are lights have... how can i avoid this?

Thanks.

from Fluffy:
"and the AA on high contrast areas using subpixel mapping and clamp output"

This worked!

scene is already gone :)

Just make an rectangle area light with (very)high W put it next to a wall and then you'll probably see it... the subpixel mapping solved it.

Someone who uses max told me the same, his explanation was that the white of the light was over 255... don't know if that is correct.

well very high is relative;-)

it is a fact though that very strong light needs more GI, AA and care.
thats true
cheers
