Why do my Panoramas with the RT effect always turn out so blotchy like in the below image?

Hi Cslaten, try using the 1 star setting, or perhaps increasing the light intensity of the sun and sky.

Hi Cslaten,
As Gilson suggested (thanks btw)
There is a thread on this topic that breaks it down pretty well
You can also refer to our articles that detail the current workflow and limitations:

It was a pleasure Bosko.
I would like to make a few more considerations:
In this test scene I did above, stains are still noticeable on the walls and ceiling, so I decided to put "area light" lamps filling the windows of this room, see how the final result improved.

That is a clever workaround which works great in this render.
It can be an issue if there are too many light sources in the scene though as the Ray tracing samples are randomly assigned to these light sources so trial and error is the way to go here.

Hi Gilson
Interesting and very nice result. Thanks.
So to confirm you are rendering using 1 Star as in your first reply?
What is the result if you render without Ray Tracing?

Hi Peter
Yes, I rendered it using a star.
If I simply disable Raytrace, I have this result:
After increasing the intensity of the light area, apply the "shadows" filter and reduce the "Ominishadow" effect to lighten the ends of the walls:
EDIT:
After applying the reflection filter and adding other shadow adjustments:
In my opinion, the Ray Trace renders are incomparable, I can't wait for the moment when it is finished with the integration of vegetation and animated people.

Thanks Gilson.
The Ray Trace and the Rasterization (render 2, 3 is not near) do seem quite similar.
I'll do some further tests and look to including your workaround in our article.
Many thanks for the suggestion , especially because I would normally tend to not add extra lights to avoid creating too much light and getting patchy/blotchy looking results from too low a Sample rate.
Can you also share your LSF Project file with us. Thanks in advance if you can.

Hello Gilson,
Thanks but it looks like we did not receive it. Did you send a support request?

Thanks Gilson. Yes, I did receive it. Apologies for not responding as I was out of the office.

Thanks! We've worked hard to develop a Revit to Lumion workflow that allows us to iterate renderings very quickly while still being able to use the model for the lifespan of the project (for cds ect, not just for renderings). Glad to see someone appreciate the details! The new Raytrace ability has upped our game. Now if we can just get the 3Ds on the same level.

Yes, I went through all of these and per @Gilson Antunes suggestion, the rendering I did was already at 1 star. I was trying to light the majority of the space with just sun, which is why it appears dark right now. One thought was that the glossiness of the plaster walls was creating the blotches, but I also don't want sacrifice the gloss in the renderings if possible. I can try brightening it up but so far this isn't helping.
Quick question, which light sources are supported with Raytrace? I was under the impression that the area lights didn't work, or at least they weren't showing up in the render.
