Difference 2.6 - 2.7

Hi guys,

I apologize, I downloaded version 2.7 but in the same rendering I find this difference (my client has already seen the project so I’m not in an emergency) I would like to understand if it’s just me who prefers version 2.6 or if I don’t I understood something that I have to change in version 2.7.
I find that the wall and floor are much better in version 2.6, what do you think?


Re-rendering the exact same scene without adjusting settings is not a reasonable way to compare the two. For a new version like 2.7 there are a lot of changes made to specific render settings we do not even see or have the ability to control. The way your old settings such as slope, exposure, contrast looked in 2.6 may need to be adjusted. You would need to rework your settings to attempt to achieve a similar look first and then compare. This is one reason why you should not upgrade in the middle of a project, and also why you should keep old installation files in case you ever do need to make a change but preserve the look of the old rendering.

Hi. Version 2.7 has optimised the GI, so the effect may be significantly different from 2.6. You can refer to this video.
D5 Render 2.7 | Upgraded D5 GI, D5 Scatter, AI Ultra HD Texture, Accelerated Speed, Optimized Grass (youtube.com)

If you would like to keep the original effect, the parameters will need to be readjusted. If your project is in progress and you don’t want to change the effect, then it is recommended to use 2.6 for the time being. There is a download link for 2.6 in this post.
