Hi, I have recently installed this version: Indigo Renderer v3.8.23, OS X 64-bit build
and now when I render
1) there are many bright dots that increase with time (see image at 10000 samples/pixel)
2) if I use cpu rendering the image is dark and always with bright dots
Can you help me?

Re: bright dots
the bright dots are resulting from rare light paths that build up into varied caustics effects with time, but not always at a satisfactory rate; this is very much scene dependent. Super sampling is used in order to reduce their impact on the image. I like odd values personally, 3 or 5 generally.

Re: bright dots
I would pehaps tend to use MLT that explores samples into clusters of points where single Path tracing would leave one, that's at this time a CPU only mode.
Get yourself used with the different tonemapping techniques, specially skip the Reinhard one if you feel that it is presenting a funny behaviour. Another factor that can enhance dots is too strong of a bump, and too bright or saturated colour. White shouldn't be above 85%.

Re: bright dots
Thanks for you answers.
I think that it was more simple and natural with the other version when using default settings all was easy:
now suddenly all difficult.

Re: bright dots
If this is a new issue in Indigo 3.8.23, it's probably a bug.
Re: bright dots
so what can I install meanwhile?
