Dear Friends,

I'm getting these rapid and ugly color changes in my render. The render is 25 fps, 758 by 576, final.
I'm using Vue 7.5 infinite on a Vista 64 computer. The scene has a volumetric atmosphere, no cloud movement. There are stars and ice rings and blue color haze. The ground plane has a water material for which the animate material surface is checked. Please go to this URL to see a few seconds of the scene. I appreciate any help.  http://www.guitarcory.com/page4.html.

Many thanks,
Cory sea

Your 1st link shows a 404 error.
Your 2nd link points to a strange thing (cid:part1.00050800.00090602@deeplyheal.com).

So, it wasn't the lens flare?

Do we need DivX codec installed to view your AVI?

It's possible to watch the first link if you remove  the dot at the end of the link.
But I know nothing about making movies in Vue, so cant help a  lot. Does it look any different if you just render  one still?

Ah, I saw it after taking the dot out.
Yes, really ugly and strange. I noticed the sun seems to be pulsating in synch with the color change. Did you animate any feature of the sun?

Ok.  It just needs at least Media Player 10 to view.  I had version 9 on this computer.

I suggested at C3D this could come from the sun lens flare, it looks animated, small, then big, then small again. The guy said he was rendering without it, but no news since.

Thanks, everyone. Yes, I guess  you need dvix installed to view the video. Thank you for bringing this up. I've taken out the lens flare and this seems to make no difference. I notice it takes about two to three times longer to load this particular Vue file into vue. I'm going to try to render some other things to see if they show the same problem.  Apart from the balloons, the only other thing animated is "animated materials-foam".

Thanks Mazak. I'm trying a render of the same scene right now with "forbid animation" checked. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Friends,

No different with "forbid animation" ticked. Could it be a problem with the video card (Nividia GeForce 8800 GT)?

The video card is only affected by OpenGL mode.  The video card does determine your total colors (i.e. 32-bit color) and screen resolution.

Same thing happened with another (shipped with Vue) atmosphere. So I'm trying a different material for the water plane.

I removed the foam from the water mixed material and now I don't have the problem. Strange.
