Very simply... just write yourself an exporter. Good luck :)

Hi Ondra, just out of curiosity, has there been much progress recently in Corona Standalone?  Have there been any new features added?

Of course, I know you've been working on the API, so you've probably had your hands full with that. 

[Ondra]

not really, I've just converted the application to the new API

I've updated the standalone build and its documentation.
Major changes:
- activation key no longer required
- support for normal mapping
- support for instancing
- support for anisotropy

Thanks keymaster.
I'm a blender user and trying corona renderer with the exporter by joel.
Is the legacy version also included in the new standalone build?

[Ondra]

[pixel3d]

Very fast. Thanks a lot.

Hello,

I don´t get the standalone application to work on my Win 8.1 64bit system. First I had problems because of missing 'msvcp120.dll' on my computer. I solved that by installing the 'vcredist_x64.exe' included in the dropbox archiv of version 2013-12-12 of the standalone versions

But now there´s a problem with export.scn, that cannot be read, although it´s in the sample folder inside the folder with Corona.exe

See the command line message:

C:\Users\XXX\Desktop\corona>Corona.exe
ERROR: Cannot open/read/write file 'export.scn'
Corona Renderer Alpha - Standalone

What I´ve done wrong? Thank for thinking about a solution!

Chris :)

you dont just run corona standalone. It needs CLI parameters. Read the PDF and study examples
