[C4D] I need help! / Re: Cosmos Browser stays white

« on: 2022-04-28, 19:37:33 »

Actually it reappeared. It happend while downloading an asset from the chrome browser.
It got stuck at 98% and then an error page showed up with an 400 / 500 error message... After that it went and stayed white.

No, not that I know of. It just went white while browsing through the browser and it stayed like that ever since.
I restarted C4D and the MacBook, still the same.

[C4D] I need help! / Cosmos Browser stays white

« on: 2022-04-27, 13:56:07 »

Hey,

when I open up the Cosmos Browser in C4D (R25 and S26) it just shows a white blank page.
A few days ago it worked without a problem. Any idea how to fix this issue?

[C4D] I need help! / R25 + Corona 7 Hotfix 2 + MacBook Pro M1 2021

« on: 2022-04-01, 09:28:00 »

Hey,

I've got a new MacBook Pro this week and I'm trying to get Corona 7 running,
but it doesn't appear in C4D after installation. Is there any known incompatibility?

I'm using Cinema 4D R25.117
Corona 7 Hotfix 2
MacBook Pro M1 2021 with macOS Monterey 12.3, M1 Pro Chip

Corona daily build version 8 is running, but I'd like to use version 7 for now.

[C4D] General Discussion / Baking Textures - Alternative to C4D and Corona?

« on: 2021-01-19, 08:28:27 »

Hey,

as far as I understand texture baking in Corona for C4D is not supported yet.
The native texture baking from Cinema 4D sucks big time when it comes to GI-baking... unless I don't get it?!

What is your got to solution for texture baking? I have a HDRI/GI lid scene and want to texture bake an object from that scene for use in a game engine.
I might have to get Redshift for that :/
Has anyone used this plugin: https://hantmade.com/cake/

[C4D] I need help! / Re: Anisotropic issue

Ok I found a solution myself, but may be useful for other too. I split the top disc shape and put it into a separate object.
It seems the fillet / bevel of the knob was the issue. Seems like a bug for me.

Hey, I can't figure out, what I'm doing wrong here.

I want to have so anisotropic reflection at the top of my knobs and get those disc shape at the center of my knobs. Any ideas?

[C4D] I need help! / Right way to use fresnel

« on: 2020-04-24, 10:11:06 »

Hey,

is there some information on how to use fresnel the right way with Corona?

Coming from native C4D, we can choose dielectric or conductive fresnel.
So far I understand that we can change the IOR in the reflection settings to control the look, 999 being mirror-like, higher values representing metals and lower values non-metals.

What about fresnel-Maps or fresnel shader. Do I have to put to somewhere to make the materials more realistic?
I looked up the examples on the help pages, they all go without an additional fresnel shader I think.

And a second question. A roughness map goes into Glossiness-Texture I guess. Do you usually put something in the Texture-Input of the Reflection-Channel itself?

Looking forward to get this straight :)

Works for me out of the box. Only did a quick test though, so there might be some bugs or issues...

Hey,

I created a tutorial for using a smartphone photogrammetry app, called display.land.
I used Corona for rendering.
