Is the PhysicalMtl supports MultiTile Map for using UDIMS already?

One thing which was always a difficult approach for me was, light behind frosted glass.
In the attachement you can see an example of Roughness 0 to Roughness 0.01.
I quite not understand why a frosted glas can block soo much light. I understand that at some point like 0.4-0.6 you loose a lot but why already at 0.01? It seems like it clamps right above 0.
This behavior is also happening with the LegacyMtl. Can somebody maybe explain if this is intentional? Thank you.

Ok from what i can tell you today is that the new PhysicalMtl is not made for carpaints and other painted metallic mixed surfaces with clearcoats.
I don't know if this is intentional, but uncontrollable things happen.
If you make a fresh new physicalMtl and change metallnes to metal and add a full red base colour 128.0.0 with roughness to 0.3, you can see that the red colour is changing to your light source by angle. Weird...
Now if you change the base colour to 64.0.0 you get a pinkish output which doesn't makes sense.
Im working with the phsyical material for few days now and it makes much fun. I really would like to use it as my standard mtl.

I have installed the latest build today to check the new physical material and the first issue i came accross is this one with base bump affecting clearcoat.
Not only that the base bump is affecting the coat layer, even the bump isn't calculated like it should (see first two images below).

Copying the whole scene in a new fresh one solved the issue. So it was compatibility issue within max itself.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / [Solved] Corona render issue with older scenes from Max 2019
« on: 2020-09-22, 12:05:42 »
I just wanted to open an older scene which was saved with Max 2019 and Corona 5 and it doesn't render anything.
It just stops after trying to parse the scene. It doesn't crash but the render window just closes. When i activate IR i get a Max crash.
I have installed Corona 5 again and the same happens. So is this Max 2021 related?
Thank you!

The new lens effects are just awesome! Much closer to photorealism!
Thanks for that!

Displacement recalculation while IR is pretty slow with latest buiild. I even got max crash. No heavy displacement, just a pixel depth of 2-3 and stock settings.

I run in to one issue where Max is crashing after using IR:
Start IR
Stop IR
Hit Show VFB
Max crash without option to save.
Running RC1 and Max'19 i had it also on older dailys. It doesnt seem to be scene specific. Had it on different scenes.

Hi, i just wanted to share my recent work with Corona.
The scene is Full CG. Textures are from Friendly Shade. Corona Sun and Sky with Volumetric Fog is used only. No extra lights, even for the interior shot.
These pictures contain no massive postwork. Camera Raw conversion only with tiny cosmetic touches. That's it!
@Corona Team
You guys do an awesome Job with Corona! Please keep it up and push it further! It is just awesome!

No, it is turned off. I tested with turning it on and the whole render gets black after the B&G calculation.
