Info pass

The Info Pass provides a view of the effects of the normals, UVs, and geometric data provided in the scene. The info passes are rendered one at a time. The maximum samples (Max samples) for Info passes can be adjusted without affecting the maximum samples set toward the final rendered image. Info Passes include the following:

• Max Samples (setting)
• Sampling Mode (setting)

• Bump and normal mapping

• Opacity threshold (value)

• Geometric Normal

• Smooth normal

• Vertex Normal

• Shading Normal

• Tangent Normal

• Z-Depth

• Z-depth max (value)

• Position

• UV Coordinates

• UV Max (value)
• UV coordinate selection (value)

• Texture Tangent

• Motion Vector

• Max Speed (value)

• Material ID

• Object ID

• Texture Tangent

• Motion Vector

• Baking Group ID (not applicable in the plugin)

• Light Pass ID

• Render Layer ID

• Render Layer Mask

• Wireframe

• Ambient Occlusion

• AO distance (value)

• AO alpha shadows

Note: the extra pins in the ArchiCAD plugin are non-render passes, so they are pins the effect another render pass. So for example, UV Max is the maximum UV coordinate. 

Note: The parameter Baking Group ID is not applicable in the plugin. In the plugin the baking is applied to the entire scene – as it is not possible to assign Baking Id’s to geometry in the plugin. It is not likely that you will be using the Baking Camera in the basic workflow for ArchiCAD.

Other Attributes

Distributed Ray Tracing

This is an option to enable z-depth and motion blur in the render passes. If this is enabled, the motion blur and DOF are sampled.

Baking Group ID

Specifies which baking group should be baked. By default all objects belong to the default baking group number 1. In the plugin the baking is applied to the entire scene – as it is not possible to assign Baking Id’s to geometry in the plugin. It is not likely that you will be using the Baking Camera in the basic workflow for ArchiCAD
