[Max] Feature Requests / Self-Contained Corona Scene Export

« on: 2022-09-12, 11:52:03 »

I was working on a project that required Redshift for rendering and came across an interesting feature:

On Maya+Redshift you can export the entire scene (All the Baked Geometry, shaders, Procedural Maps, Camera, Lights) to a single self contained file .rs single frame. We were able to render on the farm using the standalone redshift without the need to install maya.

Simple cmdline "redshiftcmd scene_####.rs"

Self Contained scene files are obviously big files, but with 10G network and no maya needed, the frame starts rendering in matter of seconds.

Corona Scene on the other hand creates too many files when we export the scene for standalone.

It would be great to be able to simply hit render to file, and corona would write a .cs file with everything inside (Including Textures would be amazing).

:) You know just a thought :)

[Max] Feature Requests / ABC/USD Support For corona proxy

« on: 2020-11-25, 17:04:53 »

Hello everyone,

i just want to touch base and see if there is any plan to make the corona proxy and standalone more similiar to the vray proxy and vray.

One of the main things about the vray proxy is the ability to read alembic sequences ( like houdini simulations ) or even better maybe add support for USD files later for the standalone!

:)

Thank you!

+1 This is the most useful feature! Beside the fact that you would save so much memory too by instancing the same image across a floor!

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Crash with tyflow

Hello!
We recently discovered that corona interactive render crashes when we use the new multithreaded plugin tyflow! Only when interactive render is enabled!
Just a heads up :)

Thanks!

Yeah too low to actually use real life values but a 0.001 gets you very close to it and you can use a 0 exposure instead... anything lower its a problem for sure :D

Actually the Monlight works almost like the sunlight, just different scale and intesity!
So you can use the Sun system from corona and lower the intensity and temperature, increase the size of the sun and with a cellular noise do the stars.

[Max] Feature Requests / Corona Proxy and Standalone to Read Alembic Files

« on: 2019-02-20, 15:21:05 »

Hello Everyone!

One feature that we feel would be very helpful is the ability to import alembic files inside the corona proxy just like the vray proxy does! Also having the option to read alembic files inside corona stand alone can open lots of doors for us to write some nice scene assembly GUI for the standalone.

Thanks!
