The Ray Offset Setting

The Ray Offset setting has been added to the Misc. tab of Rendering Settings and the GPU Ray Tracing Options menu in Figure window.

Set a ray offset value when using ray tracing. Rays (sights) of ray tracing cross (reflect, pervade) with each other on the object surface. In this case, to avoid repeated crossing on the object surface by mistake, ray tracing resumes from the position that advanced a very small amount of distance in the movement direction from the crossed position. This distance is called the "ray offset."

You can select Relative or Absolute as the Ray Offset value.
