Weird Checkerboard effect

Post by MaxHunter »

I started a new model and after about a 100k ITs I'm noticing a weird checkerboard effect on some of the faces. I tried to look it up but the search is returning, 504 gateway errors. I haven't seen this yet and wondering if the model is collapsing? I am using the DNY512, but switched upsample to, subpixel, and the upsample filters to 512. I'm also experimenting with Adabelief at -16 -- which I've never used before.

It still relatively early in the show, should I restart the model? Will it recover?

It's hard to say without images, but you could try enabling ICNR initialization which is specifically designed to avoid the checkerboard effect.
