Thanks for that, I had originally pasted the YT link but it didn’t spawn the thumbnail. Then I embedded it in gallery code which was wrong. All fixed now. Thanks for the other video, looks interesting.

The key difference is that with my fake long exposure method you can see the streak in the viewport and change the sample rate by adjusting the array density. And of course due to the emit shader you only need 1 sample for a clean result :wink:
