[Max] Daily Builds / Re: Corona Renderer 5 for 3ds Max - Daily Builds Discussion
« on: 2019-09-27, 20:41:49 »So, is it Nvidia or Corona that is dropping support for older 700 series cards? What exactly did daily-2019-09-20 do to break things and what files maybe need to be removed to get the previous daily-2019-08-27 building working again?Nvidia released Optix 6.x.x, this version dropped support for the kepler architecture (GTX Titan 1st gen, GTX 6xx and GTX 7xx).
The Corona Team probably missed this and updated corona's 5.x.x version to 6.x.x, killing support.
Now it's up to the Corona team to either detect the presence of a kepler card and / or allow an option download for the 5.x.x version of Optix or just stick to Optix 6.x.x exclusively and make me a very sad panda :[
Yeah, that's unfortunately to read. I'm certainly due for an updated GFX card, but was really hoping hold out a bit longer. I do hope the Corona team can provide an alternate solution as you've mentioned.
In the meantime, I was able to go back to the daily-2019-08-07 build at least. That must have been what I was actually using prior to updating to the 9-20 build.
