difficulty with probability parameter

Post by morbidangel »

Hi,

I have hard time understanding how this works on multiple objects inside one vray scatter.

For example if I have 2 objects each have probability of 1, I think I should see them 50/50? However this isn't the case, it seems that the first object in the list has a dominant effect on the rest of the objects and they cascade with the probability in order they are connected to the container.

So with 10 objects in one container I have to set the first in the list to be 0.05, then second 0.1, then third 0.2 and so on to get more or less even % of all the objects to display in the container.

What I can't understand is if I have a sphere and a cube in the vray scatter, and the sphere is first in the list, I set the probability to 0.5 for the sphere and 1 for the cube and with maximum number of 10 objects in rendering I get 7 spheres and 3 cubes, should I not see more cubes since they have higher probability then the sphere?

Any helps is greatly appreciated.

This is already rewritten, will be available in next release along with animation feature I'm currently working on.
