[C4D] General Discussion / Corona and same name materials

« on: 2018-06-01, 09:07:07 »

Maybe you noticed that Corona (and not only Corona) doesn't recognize if in your scene you have some materials with the same name. If you paste in the scene some object with same name material (es: mat mat mat mat mat) when you paste it in other new scene with mat mat mat mat, it issue drive you crazy.
To avoid it, our software developer from c4dzone.com, created a simple script that check if you have same name materials and append a number. So before paste object in the scene, give to all mat the same name (es: boing) and the plugin give to all materials boing_01 boing_02 and paste object on your scene without problems. (you must move manually your texture to the target scene as well)

« on: 2018-05-30, 20:33:04 »

Hi guys, what is th best way to make grass on a big surface by using corona?
Cinema4D render instances and mograph as usual ?
Is there something corona based tips?

I know, but the rendering farm doesn't use Team render to rendering.

Dear all, I’m trying to get a good result for haze on external renders but the volume material drive me crazy. Do you have a sample scene where haze take a good look on exteriors renders? Or suggested parameters?
Thanks

[C4D] General Discussion / Denoising on farm

« on: 2018-05-28, 17:40:17 »

Hello guys, I’m try to test on a render farm (not mine) the corona render on c4d.
All is fine but some machines doesn’t render denoised image and the result is different on some frames.
The farm replay to me that all machine are the same.
Ideas?

Thanks so much. I know only now that there is the benchmark app for corona :)

Hi Tom, sorry forget what I wrote because my machine have different Cinebench, the first one do 510 CB and the second 780.
Thanks and sorry for my anuseful topic :(

PS - I would also expect an i7 to be better than an i5. You don't mention which generation of each processor, and that too would play a part (e.g. if it's not just an i5, but an older generation). I'm actually more surprised that the benchmarks are the same, than I am that the i7 is faster in Corona :)

Right now I don’t remember exactly the processor model. I know that i7 is better than i5 processors but the cinebench is absolutely the same.
The i5 is on the iMac that I think is a desktop architecture and is more different from a MacBook Pro with i7 mobile processors.
I think that desktop processors is different from mobile processors but why the cinebench is the same?
I use both machine with other render engines and final renders takes same time to be rendered.
On corona my iMac is more slowly than MacBook Pro.

Tomorrow morning I will try a deep test with render times and processor description.
Thanks alex

How much memory does each machine have? If rendering runs out of memory, it will become very much slower.

Hi Tom, the iMac run with 8 Gb of ram but the scene is under the ram during rendering so is not out of ram. Usually if you are out of ram the system scratch the ram to the disk as cinema do when happens :)

Hello, I'm Alex...
I'm using corona (lates beta available) on two different machines:

1) iMac with intel i5 quad core
2) MacBook Pro i7 quad core

The iMac and the macbook have the same "cinebench", around 700 render points so when I use other rendering engine it takes the same render time. I noticed only a couple of minutes of different render times. I assuming that the processor calculate in the same way.

On corona I got big different render times.

The MacBook seems to be three time quickly of iMac. :-O
How is it possible if both machine have identical Cinebench???

thanks!!!
Alex
