ID 362714 - Using a Project3D node to apply images or textures to geometry, will cause artifacts within larger 3D scenes when rendering using the ScanlineRender

Problem summary
When projecting a texture or image onto a piece of geometry using the Project3D node, artifacts will appear with a large scale 3D scene, when rendering via the ScanlineRender node.

This occurs in all regressive tested versions over all operating systems.

Customer reported version
nuke.10.0v5

Customer reported platform
centos7

Steps to reproduce

Open attached script and view results

or

1) Create a new Nuke script

2) Create a CheckerBoard node

3) Create a Project3D node and connect the input into the CheckerBoard node

4) Within the Project3D node, disable the crop checkbox

5) Create a Camera node and set the translate Z knob value to 510000000

6) Create a Sphere node and alter the radius knob value to 63710000

7) Connect the Camera node into the cam input of the Project3D node

8) Connect the Project3D node into the input of the Sphere node

9) Create a ScanlineRender node and connect the Camera into the cam input and the Sphere into the obj/scn input.
​

​

10) Look through the result of the ScanlineRender node
Result: You will notice there are artifacts created on the ScanlineRender result
​

​

To confirm the point that this artifacting occurs:

11) Alter the Camera nodes translate z knob value to 456000000

12) Alter the Sphere nodes radius knob value to 57000000
Result: Issue does not occur
​

​

Workaround
Avoid Projecting textures to massive scaled 3D scenes if possible till this issue is investigated and revised in a future Nuke release.

Earliest version tested
Nuke 7.0v10
- This issue appears to be in all versions of the product

Expected behaviour
Projected textures or images on geometry using the Project3D node should not artifact at larger scale scene sizes

Actual behaviour
Projected textures or images on geometry using the Project3D node create artifacts at larger scale scene sizes
