Thank you for this quick reply.
C4d  freezes, cannot report.

Win 10 prof 64 bit, C4d R20 ,
Problem occurs during rendering.
Computer : ASUS ROG Strix SCAR GL703GE / 32 GB

Ah, you had said crash rather than freeze - however the good news is that the same page (https://help.c4d.corona-renderer.com/support/solutions/articles/12000033461-how-to-report-issues-c4d) shows how to generate a dump file, under "How to generate minidump files?", this mini dump gives the same info on what is going on and can be generated if C4D has frozen rather than crashed. We'd also need to know if this is every scene or only one (or some) - plus would be good to know what stage it freezes at, after a certain number of passes, or during a phase before rendering begins (the VFB has an information message at the bottom that says what it is doing at the time, such as calculating GI and so on).

Copy function out of the interactive rendering vfb does not work. c4d r21, corona 5 rc, mac os mojave

Same here, copy past in VFB not work. Furthermore slowdowns and freezing in Corona 5 final release and RC3. No bug report. I went back to RC2, the problem seems to be solved.

MacOs Mojave, Corona 5 RC3 and final release, Cinema 4d R19

Sorry for my bad english

Crashes using translucent material and problems with the nvidia denoiser (i'd like to disable it)

Not sure what you mean by "I'd like to disable it" because you can of course - turn off "Fast preview denoise during render" in Performance settings if you want it removed from IR, or select a different denoiser under Denoise mode in the General Settings if you want it removed from final renders. Unless you mean something else?

Also, we'd need more info on the crash - the BugReports.txt file, and a copy of a crashing scene, would be best.

Hello everyone!

We are releasing Hotfix 1 of the Corona Renderer for C4D V5. Cinema 4D is now notified when the render regions in VFB change, so that you can save the change in the scene. Also, the triplanar shader now correctly sets its subshader if you place it on top of an existing shader.

For now, the hotfix is available for testing on our public Google drive and will be released and available on the official download page a few days later.

Download link:

For feature requests, see https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=38.0 :)

(Also, it won't be in Corona 5, which is out and will only see hotfixes, which also makes this not a good place to post the feature request :) )

When can we expect a new hotfix or daily? As far as I see is Bump still not working properly. And a render without bump... Hope you can update us soon.

Thanks!

Hi! Do you mean this report? https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=26055.msg160380#msg160380

If so, a couple of follow up questions - could you share the scene, or at least a screen grab of the material set up, just so we are sure what situation you are describing? (private uploader info etc. is at https://help.c4d.corona-renderer.com/support/solutions/articles/12000033461-how-to-report-issues-c4d if you want to share the scene via that route).

Also, is this only with procedural shaders like noise, and if you use bitmaps instead, it works fine?

Thanks!

I don't know if you know this already. Bump isn't working if a layer is used.

Example: Same Noise, on the left inside of a Layer shader, on the right without.

Mac OS 10.14.6

Build timestamp: Nov 27 2019 22:17:36
Version: 5.0
Cinema version: R20.059 CINEMA 4D Studio (single-license)
Plugin status: Plugin successfully loaded

TomG I mean this report. Bump isn't working if a layer shader is used.

Right - in which case, can you fill in the extra info as requested (that was the post my thread linked to :) )

TY, for the scene and the test images! Based on that, it sounds like an issue that is already being tracked, ( (Internal ID=289087240) for internal use). We'll let you know when we have more information.

Hi,

we were about to render quite a big project and noticed that in multipass rendering Corona 5 Hotfix 1 deliberately turns on Use bounding box option when rendering (even if it it turned off by us) - means that all renders we get are wrong! Any idea how to turn this crazy thing off? Test file and screenshot below ...
