« on: 2018-05-28, 01:17:22 »

one of the joys of Corona is that you can just tweak the exposure once you have started rendering, so no need to try to guess the EV level like in Vray. For animations perhaps, but normally I'd just quickly check it using interactive and then keyframe the camera exposure.

Hi Maru,

Would you be able to help Edwin from Thinkbox out? https://forums.thinkboxsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?p=73840&sid=04bf0e015ec40f6e3f481d8852c872f8#p73840

"I think the ideal would be to have the Corona guys provide a MaxScript example of printing that data to the MaxScript listener. I think I could take it from there."

I'm already out of my depth...
