[C4D] Daily Builds / Re: Daily Build June 12 on Mac Studio

« on: 2024-08-28, 10:23:17 »

Hi there,


Regarding your last inquiries, have you tried using the "Ctrl+ +" and the "Ctrl+ -" shortcuts to zoom in/out?
Additionally, you can enable the "Adjust render resolution to VFB" option if you're using the IR; by doing this, resizing the VFB window while running the IR will adjust the image size to the VFB size. (see attached screenshot)
I hope this helps.
Cheers!

Hello @masterzone

Thank you so much for your feedback.
Are you using "Corona 12" or "Corona 12 Hotfix 1"?
On the other hand, are you using the "legacy VFB" or the new "VFB 2.0"?
I've been trying reproducing this but no luck so far.
Last tests using MacOS Sonoma + Cinema 4D 2024.4 + Corona 12 and Corona 12 Hotfix 1
Looking forward to hearing from you.

[C4D] General Discussion / Re: COSMOS assets materials mostly wrong.

« on: 2024-08-28, 01:42:31 »

Hello @jojorender


Could you please try the following:
-Make sure your Cosmos Browser is up-to-date
-Try one more time importing the asset and see if the issue persists
Note: If there's a pending update for the material, please make sure to update it before importing it into your scene.
Additionally, you can try deleting the downloaded asset first, then downloading it again and importing it to your scene.
Please let me know if the issue persists.
Cheers!

Hello there,
Could you please try running one more time the Corona installer, but this time use the "Customise" option and make sure the "Chaos Cosmos" checkbox is enabled?
To learn more about the installation process, please visit the following link: https://docs.chaos.com/display/CRC4D/Installation+Process#macOS
I hope this helps.
Please let us know the outcome.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: corona crashes when using vertex map

« on: 2024-08-21, 17:27:48 »

Hi there,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention @steppes.
This is an odd case, as I can confirm the C4D UI freezes.
OTOH, this was already reported to the dev team.
Let's wait and see if they manage to find the root cause of this.

[C4D] Feature Requests / Re: True material copy in the material manager

« on: 2024-08-21, 02:53:12 »

Hello @John_Do,


Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Could you please elaborate a little bit more about this? I'm not sure I quite understood the issue.
I tried reproducing this duplicating (Drag'nDrop) a material directly in the C4D material editor and also in the Corona Node Material Editor, but I couldn't reproduce the issue.
If you have a scene project where this is happening, it can also be handy to share it with us.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Hello @m4drid,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Could you please provide me with your computer specs?:
-What is your OS version?
-What is your Cinema 4D version?
-What is your graphics card model? What is your graphics card driver's version?
-Is your screen/display being scaled?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Cubic mapping / BUMP causes bug when scaled

« on: 2024-08-21, 02:17:56 »

Hello LeSill,


Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Like @burnin, I've tried reproducing this but haven't had luck so far.
I tested this using the Corona 9 version and up to Corona 12 hotfix 1 + Cinema 4D R23 and up to Cinema 4D 2024 version.
For each testing scene, the result was the same: the stretched texture remained the same, and the object using the UVW Map remained the same (no change, no difference between rendered images, no crashes)
I used a basic test scene created from scratch and also tested the scene project you provided.
This is a very odd situation/case.
I'm curious to know if there's anything different on your C4D version that might be causing this.
Could you please try uninstalling C4D and Corona, cleaning any leftovers from both, then clean install both software and try again to see if the issue persists?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Seamless option does not work

« on: 2024-08-21, 02:02:42 »

Hello LeSill,


Thank you so much for posting this.
I don't think the Seamless feature will work correctly using a texture map that is not 1:1 in ratio; plus, using this feature, there's a big chance it will create another pattern over the object's surface that is still not entirely seamless.
Additionally, Maxon explained this feature in their User Guide for Cinema 4D at: https://help.maxon.net/c4d/
I'll suggest using the Corona Mapping Randomizer shader and/or the Triplanar shader instead.
Corona Mapping Randomizer shader
Corona Triplanar shader
I tried reproducing this (I mean, trying enabling/disabling the C4D's Seamless feature) using Corona versions from 7 to the latest Daily build + different C4D versions from R23 up to 2024, but I haven't had luck making it work as you intend to.
You mentioned this used to work; could you please provide me with the info about the exact/correct Corona version where this used to work like you mentioned? This way it'll be easier for me to track it down.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Corona Bitmap/Bump map problem

« on: 2024-07-25, 08:34:16 »

Hello GeMeMe,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
I'll report this to the dev team for further investigation.
Please consider that finding the root cause of the issue may take some time, but our dev team will work hard to find it.
In the meantime, I'll suggest using native Bitmap shaders instead.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Field Grass 014 and Field Grass 013 causes bug

« on: 2024-07-24, 09:36:17 »

Hello @LeSill,

Thank you so much for your reply.
Unfortunately, I haven't had enough luck reproducing this issue.
Could you please try disabling the "Adaptive light solver" in the Render settings -> Performance settings -> Basic configuration and see if the issue persists?
A scene project where we can reproduce the issue will be handy.
If you can submit larger files to us for testing purposes, you can open/submit a support ticket (or I can do it on your behalf)
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Have an amazing day/evening.

« on: 2024-07-24, 09:04:39 »

Hello everyone; thanks for reporting this.
Unfortunately, I've been intensively trying to reproduce this issue; however, I haven't had enough luck.
I tested the mentioned behavior using the following specs:
Corona - 9 Hotfix 1, 10 Hotfix 2, 11 Hotfix 2, 12, 13 (latest DailyBuild)
Cinema 4D - S24, R25, S26, 2023, 2024
VFB 2 & Legacy VFB
Could any of you provide a detailed step-by-step list of how to reproduce this?
You can also include some screenshots or screen recordings.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Cheers!
