Space Station Challenge 2021 WIP – Energize

@jlampel I’m wondering how I can get rid of the sun flickering in my animation here when rendering with EEVEE.

My guess is that it has to do with the volumes in Eevee. Does it still happen if you turn that off? You could try decreasing the volume tile size, using the volume light clamping, or heading to the light’s shadow properties and increase the clip start.

Thank you, @jlampel  😀! I’m sure that it has to do with the volume shader in EEVEE. So, I’ll try it with a smaller volume tile size.

@jlampel With a tile size of 8 pixels I get a distorted sun at some frame during the animation:

With a tile size of 2 pixels there’s no noticables distortion, of course for the price of a much slower playback.

@jlampel The rendered animation with a volume tile size of 2 pixels shows a significantly reduced flickerung of the “Point Light” sun. Maybe, I have to increase the number of sampels. Since the volume’s “Anisotropy” is set to 1 , a reduction of that value could help as well.
