At present, Vray has launched a Chinese version. I would like to ask if Corona has this plan? Because there will be some bugs with the conversion material

Hi,

There are no plans right now for a Chinese version of Corona.

Thanks

Just curious;

Has something changed with the way glare/bloom works? I think since updating recently to a daily my bloom and glare seems to look quite different all of a sudden...

(I have no evidence of this right now, just asking!)

Hi,

Nothing should have changed w.r.t. bloom and glare :)

Thanks,

That is really strange, in this case, I would suggest contacting our support team. They are much better at troubleshooting these kinds of issues then I am.

You can submit a ticket here, and someone will help you out :)

Hi,

Are you able to share the scene with us? I'm afraid this will be really hard to solve without a scene..

Hey,

You probably need to use uvwScale instead.

[Max] Daily Builds / Re: DB 10 on Windows 10

« on: 2023-06-05, 09:04:13 »

Hi,

I tested DB 10 RC1 on Windows 10 machine with AMD Thredripper 2970wx CPU and discovered that CPU usage drops from 100% to 50% compared to Version 9 (GI and rendering). Is this issue related to windows 10? When moved back to Version 9 everything works as expected.

Thank you,
Mark
