ID 392312 - Black spots when rendering.

Follow

Problem summary

When rendering this scene in Modo 13.0v1 you get black spots on the Final Color Output, Reflection Shading Output and Transparent Shading Output. The Optix output contains larger spots, however, if you turn transparency off these spots don't appear.

 

Modo 12.x renders contain a far larger amount of these black spots.

 

This issue doesn't seem to appear on OSX versions of Modo.
