[C4D] Daily Builds / Corona Render Test M1 and M1 Max

« on: 2022-07-19, 17:36:00 »

The render results with the mac book pro M1 Max are worrying. I have been greatly disappointed. I don't know if the mac is not as powerful as we are told or that at the moment corona render is not optimized. Surprisingly other applications work amazingly on M1, much better than on Intel Mac. The cinema 4d itself on the M1 is a joy to use, much smoother than the latest intel i9 iMac. Do you know if work is being done to improve the corona performance in M1? Because I get the feeling that the M1 and M1 Max processor is very powerful, but that the crown does not take advantage of it. Thank you and greetings.

Corona 7 and Corona Renderer 8 for Cinema 4D (Daily Build 2022-02-02) were slow but steady. Latest version 8 and 9 are fast but crash when the scene is complex.
Please find a solution because Corona 7 was not closing on mac M1.

With version 9 everything remains the same, it seems more powerful but in complex scenes it crashes.

It still closes cinema 4d in complex scenes, although I feel that it supports more complexity and the processor works at 100x100.
There are complex scenes that remain stable with Corona 7 but the cores work at 50%. The same scene with V9 works at 100x100 but it closes... I disable some objects and it renders without closing.
There is something in corona 7 that does allow you to render without closing, although the initial passes are very slow.
There is something in V9 that does not allow rendering very complex scenes but nevertheless I notice more power.
Initial beta versions of v8 rendered slow but rendered any complex scene.
I hope it helps and that you soon find the solution.
These errors only in M1. Same complex scene in Corona 8 on mac-intel, no problem.
All the best.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Corona 8 not render Multi-instancia native c4d

Instance activating multi-instance doesn't work neither with corona nor with native cinema render. It seems to be cinema error. However, when I use the cloner and activate the multi-instance, everything works perfectly.

It must be a punctual failure or my mistake in some layer. Multi-instance works fine.

I reinstall corona 8 and send file. I have reinstalled corona 7 and the scene no longer breaks, it takes a long time to take the first step but it remains stable. In complex scenes, it takes a long time to take the first step in corona 7.
I have not been able to assess whether corona 8 is faster because it breaks, it is true that the tests in corona 8 I only did with files that demand a lot of memory. Is it possible that the problem is the apple silicon unified memory which is insufficient? Does this experience improve with the 64gb M1 Pro and Max? I am very comfortable in the macOS environment and delighted with cinema 4d and corona, it is the perfect tool for my work. I am very happy to use your render engine, so I would love to help you in any way possible related to the macOS platform. You are close to solving these little bugs... Cheer up!!!

Cinema 4d R25 multi-instance objects not rendering.
Passing them to render instance if they are rendered.
The same file with corona 7 if you render the multi-instance objects.

Corona 8 on mac intel works perfectly. Corona 8 on mac M1 is causing crashes when rendering and cosmos opens as a white window, unable to see content.
The first native betas for M1 worked very well. Are you working on fixing it?
Very good job, the news and the render engine is wonderful. Greetings team!!!

[C4D] Daily Builds / Re: iMac M1 16Gb, C4D R25+Corona v8 daily Native-FINAL RENDER VERY SLOW

I keep having problems rendering on M1 processors. There are simple scenes where the render is optimal and the processors are shown working at a high level. But in complex scenes, the processors at a very low performance and the first pass takes forever... impossible to render complex scenes, the render times are endless. Are you working on solving this? All the best.

PROVISIONAL SOLUTION.
Go to the following link and log the license. You have to do it every time you turn on the mac and as long as you have the session open it works even if you close cinema 4d. It is a temporary solution.
1- Run cinema
2- Link
3- Log license
4- Corona!!!
