Corona for Cinema 4D Beta 1 daily build

[snifferdog]

Well, personally, I prefer all of my 80 cores to work at 100% while rendering and as far as I'm concerned, this is the way it should behave. There should be feature for adjusting how many cores you'd like to dedicate to rendering, though. Not sure if that is present right now.

As I said none of my comments where complaints, mealy feeding back my experiences. I understand these are daily builds and part of us using them is to give feedback. The results from Corona are fantastic, I am just finding it a bit unstable at times.

Thanks,

Phil

Simply set Thread limit in preferences. Corona also uses the C4D thread limit.

Simply set Thread limit in preferences. Corona also uses the C4D thread limit.

That thing is great but it doesn't appear to work if you have more than 36 cores.

Its kind of weird because if I set it to 36 threads (half of all the threads) it works - 50% of all the threads my CPUs have are utilized. When I set it to anything higher than that it basically defaults to all the 72 threads so at that points its kind of a moot point to use it.

I generally want 100% utilization but there are times where something could render slower while I continue working on other scenes. C4D is great like that because it really makes managing multiple scenes easy.

Awesome! Going to test a very complex map scene I'm working on for a client tomorrow. Thanks much!!!

[Shawn Astrom]

Just rendered this scene out with the latest version and it seems good. This scene is a mess geometrically speaking... A bunch a Sketchup models imported... Triangle madness... Still having massive computer slowdown when rendering at higher resolutions...

I was testing Redshift for this project but it very quickly became apparent that Redshift could not handle this scene very well... Corona ate it up for breakfast, and looks better... Corona for the win!

Thank you for testing Shawn. So is it better now? Do you use Picture Viewer or Corona Framebuffer for rendering? Could you please also send us a screenshot of Task manager's "Performance" tab and Corona Framebuffer's "Stats" tab during rendering? Thank you

Hi guys, newest daily build crash with multipass and VFB, but not if start render inside cinema's picture viewer.

Thanks for your works!

So, rendering is supposed to be faster, or what?

[Rhodesy]

Really appreciate you guys putting this core upgrade in so quickly. Great to get our hands on that impressive speed boost at the same time as the Max guys. Really going to help animation work.

Hello, thanks for the new version. Just to clear something up and to avoid confusion, here, after installation, it says "Build timestamp: Jul 18 2017 22:20:00
Version: B1 daily Jul 18 2017 (core 1.7 DailyBuild Jul 18 2017)",  not "2017-07-24" as Nikola put it above (same is in the Changelog). That is OK?

Yes,

That is OK. I built it on Jul 18 2017, but I managed to release it (so everything was tested and I was back at work) yesterday.
