Ray Trace shows speckled walls

[stager386]

My bigger question is how to make ray traces look their absolute best.  My walls end up looking sparkly. There are dark spots throughout, and materials aren't looking real.  I know I have to learn more about material definitions.

 

My walls look speckled and light isn't reflected onto the floor.  Any suggestions on lighting for a ray trace?

 

Thoughts?

If you mean Speckly not sparkly , then my 1st guess would be you need to run the Ray Trace for a longer number of Passes  (or time) and that usually decreases.

 

*Most people are mostly using PBR View now as it is quicker and easier to setup lighting in..... set your maximum lights to 100 in those views.

Also, it's good to have your Forum Signature filled in, especially with the Software Version, and of course a real Name is nice too ..............
See mine below in Blue for how to do that.
