Re: serious displacement/mb bugs?

[Michaël Bentitou <michaelb(at)hybride.com>]

I've just been pulling all hairs of my head for the past week about this 
problem - Objects popping in and out, tiles missing, or just black frames.

Turns out it seems like a bug with Motion Blur in 5.0.

You need to turn on 'Deformation Blur' in your render options *even* if you 
don't have any deformations in your scene.

Solved the problem for me - hope it works for you!!
