Hello Coronauts,
it has been a long time, but the final public build of Alpha v6 is ready! It reflects the last 9 months of development, and contains everything published in daily builds up to this point. You can read about the features, bugfixes, and improvements it brings here: http://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-alpha6-is-out/. The key new features are:
- Distributed rendering
- Huge speed improvements for scenes with deformation motion blur or complex geometry lights.
- New API for development of plugins for other software suites.
- Ability to save and resume rendering later
- Physical camera, exposure, and light emission
The installer is attached at the bottom of this post. Here is the installation and troubleshooting guide: http://corona-renderer.com/wiki/installation
Similarly to A5, it comes with a practical installer. You need to close all running 3dsmax instances to install it. If you prefer to copy it manually, you can choose "extract" option in the installer to get just the files. If you come across any kind of error, please report it in the bug reporting section fo the forum: http://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php/board,2.20.html.
One common problem encountered are crashes upon startup on machines with modern processors and Windows 7. You can solve it by installing all Windows system updates.
Enjoy, let us know, how do you like it, what features would you like added, and remember, rendering is magic!

sss and shadow catсher missing?
-
thanks!!!!
-
Awesome work guys!
-
Thx! :)
-
sss and shadow catсher missing?
There is nothing new compared to daily builds. We do not develop anything in secrecy. So there is nothing new for daily build users. SSS and Shadowcatcher is planned for Beta.
-
impressive work!!!! i discover one month ago, and only uses this.......(vray user). The light and simplicity is simply awesome.
-
Great work! Thank you a lot!! Time to play with it
-
Congratulations to everyone involved!! awesome work! :D
-
:- ) Good. Let's do some new project.

sss and shadow catсher missing?

-
Gongratulation! Thank you very much! =)
-
Congrats!
I have to say that I really like this, specially the second part hahaha:
"ADD + NBP – Artist Driven Development & No Bullshit Policy"
Cheers!!!
-
Thanks Ondra and the TEAM!.
Already looks great and seems faster too.
Btw I am interested in this Albedo element, does any object that come out as RED, mean it has an incorrect Albedo?, if so, Glass seems to fall in to it?
-
Excellent!
Thank you very much! :D
-
No shadow catcher mtl. So sad :(
Thanks Keymaster :)
-
Great news.. Thank you .
-
Many thanks.
-
Thanks Ondra and the TEAM!.

Btw I am interested in this Albedo element, does any object that come out as RED, mean it has an incorrect Albedo?, if so, Glass seems to fall in to it?
Albedo render element is currently very poorly implemented, as it takes reflection and refraction into account. So you should take red levels into consideration only on diffuse or slightly reflective materials.
-
super news.
Bravo !
-
Thanks, whooohoooo! :)
-
Super!!!
-
Big day today and let me congratulate the developing team on the great progress that has been done. Loving the product and also very grateful to Ondra and the rest of the team that made this possible. Corona is ... awesometacular xD !

-
Thanks!!!

See attached screenshot. I thought I was going crazy but installed A5 and it's there. Reinstalled A6 (checked clean previous install) and it's not there. Using Max14, SP5.
Thanks. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
EDIT: It's just in a different location under the basic options.
-
Have a look at material Main settings panel, about 12cm upper ;)

Congrats and thanks !!
I think in the list of major bug resolved you can add the displacement from procedural random crash. That was annoying :)
-
I'm nearly embarrassed to say thanks! Thank you.
-
Works like a charm. Thanks a lot!
Cheers!
-
congratz, looks awesome! good job :)
-
I'm nearly embarrassed to say thanks! Thank you.
Eheh, you're welcome!
-
thank. very much.
-
After a brief period of confusion when my renders were coming out all dark, I realised that Corona lights create by maxscript now face 180° to where they did with A5.
Good to see you fixed the spamming of the listener window by the lights. All feels well in the world again now.
-
Hooray! Thanks!
-
Thanks Ondra!
-
Thanks Ondra, Adam and Corona Team !!!
We are here since the "start" and we will be here for Alpha 7 (Or Beta 1), Beta 2, Final and go on ! :)
I am pleased to help to spread the word about Corona and act as evangelist, that´s because i believe its good and worth it. :)
-
Thanks a lot Ondra and his team!
-
Thanks a lot!
Only thing missing is Render Element Material ID :(

Wow...i love it, thanks

A6 overwrites A5, there is absolutely no downside in not uninstalling A5, it will only take 15MB on your HDD

Good Morning Ondra,
onby two Passes of the same Scene. One with Alpha 5 (Material_ID), and one with Alpha 6 (Masking_ID).
Do you see what I mean :) Masking_Id is useless, or not?
Any proposals ?
Cheers

-
Thanks ....great update
-
Thanks!
v6 looks to be great for my workflow. v5 isnt posible used in bigger projects.

sooooorry, i found the failure by myself! shame on me :(#
everything good!
-
Congrats everyone, you made a very and awesome good job in very fast time.
Thanks for that great renderer
-
Hi Ondra, I think corona v6 has a nasty bug when rendering animation using cache files. For example when I render an animated water made with phoenixFD, corona renders only the first frame correctly, the second one is identical to the first..... in order to render everything correctly, I have to render each fame manually...... can you fix it pease??
-
Thanks
-
great news!!! :)
-
i have an error when try installCoronaA6-final.exe, is not a valid Win32 application.. what does it mean? i use xp64
-
YOU FREAKIN' ROCKS!
-
i have an error when try installCoronaA6-final.exe, is not a valid Win32 application.. what does it mean? i use xp64
xp and xp 64 are not supported.
-
Thank you for your reply Ondra! I will try the fix
-
If anyone still has crashes when starting max with corona, please try this little test: http://corona-renderer.com/stuff/AVX2check.exe - the application should crash if you dont have the necessary windows updates installed. I unfortunately don't know the exact ID of the update needed, so the best solution is to install all of them (of course except for things like bing desktop and silverlight)
-
New to Corona, I never tested it yet but I can't wait to do so !!
Thank you guys

Hi there.
I tried the exe you put for download Keymaster and it crashed, the system was a clean install of windows 7 64.
I downloaded this:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
The Visual C 64 2013 libraries.
After installing it your exe worked like a charm :)
So no need to completely upgrade windows I think, just install the latest Visual C libraries...
Cheers!
-
I've already posted this some time ago but again, this is a must-have download if you meet all the requirements and for some reason Corona doesn't work for you:

Good to see you fixed the spamming of the listener window by the lights. All feels well in the world again now.
I tried to rotate the lights 180 degrees as my renders are coming dark also. But it doesn't change, the old scene is rendering black, even if I create a new light with strong intensity.
Any suggestion?
-
Thanks guys I am really addicted to corona

cool! i can't wait have a try

@Woshilvba: did the exe work but corona is still crashing? Or the exe is not working?
What is your exact error message? And wha are your specs an OS?
I would like to help
Cheers.
-
Thanks!!!
-
@ keymaster- do we have to uninstall corona v5 before installing v6? just to be on the safe side and avoid mix-ups
-
no, there are absolutely no mixups possible

wow!THX!!!!

I do not know what needs to install.

Yes, I have done. It runs, but Max still error. Maybe just a special case.What version of MAX supports corona V6?

:) great work. Time for me to test Corona ;) looks really good.

dude you are so awesome, thank you!

Only those offered in the installer, 2011 - 2014

Could someone tell me: How (if it's possible) for example to assign HDRI map or other texture to CoronaLight like in vray?

@Woshilvba: Can you upload an screenshot with the exact error so Keymaster can take a look? usually that helps a lot because maybe the problem is somewhere else, think that max 2011 is a very old version of max (but if corona supports it it should be working nevertheless).
Also do you have the possibility to install 2012/13 or 14 and check if it works there (at least 14 in trial mode) to discard an specific 2011 problem.
I have to say that I don't work with keymaster, I say that because i'm asking for a screenshot so keymaster can watch it and maybe he don't need it, it's just that I think this can help Keymaster to understand what is happening and it can help us to help you to solve the problem (after many years of alpha/beta testing other packages )
Also another thing that can help is a video instead of a picture, and also another thing that can help to discard other problems is to make a clean install of max.
BTW when you start max, the crash is just for corona but you can work with max, or does it crashes max completely? If it's the latter, does it brings you a CER windows? (I think you can see the CER details, but I'm not sure about that, i don't remember exactly)
Other possibility is some kind of incompatibility with another plugin (but that's weird because many more people could be having the same problem)
I hope this can bring some light into the table, these kind of errors are a pain in the ass and usually are silly things like a missplaced file or similar :P
Cheers.

2 questions:
What happened to the displacement in Alpha 6? My previous V4 worked great now it seems misconfigured.
Why is taking more time to render, do I have to change something to make my scene lighter?
Thanks.
-
Many thanks to Ondra and Corona Team!
Grande Corona Render.

too good to be true....
trying my best to believe it's true....
still cant believe it's true....
yep it's true.

Greats Thanks Fo You.....

displacement controls changed, so they are probably reset to defaults in your scene. Just re-set the displacement height.
About the speed: some scenes are now faster, some are slower due to additional overhead from implemented features. If it is small slowdown I would ignore it, if it is markant, I can take a look at the scene.

Thank all :)

many thanks.
you are rewriting the history of computer graphics.
Intel should build a statue for you.
Just one question:
I can't find the rt feature but probably is not implemented yet.
-
it is still unfinished, so it is hidden
-
almost every a5 scenes renders slower now, but I made a new scene after installing a6 and it's much much faster.
when I was installing I also selected "clean older version (or something like that)" option, so I assume when you try to render an old scene (old materials, lights) with new version it's kinda problematic. probably remaking materials and lights would fix this issue.
-
@keymaster..... em, im new to DR, pls is there any work flow, tutorials, things i should know( hardware n number of systems) necessary to get it done. i want to try it out on several z800 hp workstations systems at the office all connected via server and don't know how to go about it. just a simple step by step or link will do..... its urgent, thanks

Corona is really simple piece of software, there is no crosstalk between different versions. The "clean older versions" is purely cosmetic, it will not affect the functionality in any way.

Just run DrServer.exe on all slaves and the click search LAN on master. And use it only for lengthy renders (30 minutes+)

Thank you sir! yeah Distributed rendering!

I found the cause of the error! ! Conflict with Vray! ! I uninstalled Vray, Max 2011 can work. My God! !

I hope this can bring some light into the table, these kind of errors are a pain in the ass and usually are silly things like a missplaced file or similar :P
Cheers.
I found the cause of the error! ! Conflict with Vray! ! I uninstalled Vray, Max 2011 can work. My God! ! However, an error rendering window.

Go to this location: C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax(Design)\2014 - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\corona and delete config-xxx.conf files. It will cure itself :]

No, this method is useless.

where can i find the drserver.exe to run on the slaves? for the purpose of DR rendering?
-
there is option to install it in the installer
-
hi,
Thanks for the instruction. DR servers are now installed.
I had tried using multi-texture map with DR and was getting discrepancies between local rendering vs DR.
Please see below attachments for your review.
A6_Multitexture Map_01: Floor Tile using multi texture map in Diffuse, Gloss, Reflection & Bump rendered locally
A6_Multitexture Map_02: Same floor tile rendered using DR

I think i remember seeing a similar behaviour when some of the slave machines could not access the texture.
Hope this helps...

hi,
Yes - all the slaves have access to the floor textures folder and have MultiTexture_max2012_64.dlt installed.
Everything else seem to work fine - it's just the multi-texture map in my case.
It will start off all fine then as the render slaves kick in, just the area where multi-texture map is used, it seems to darken progressively.
Are you having success with DR using multi-texture map in your scenes?
-
any update for max2015?
-
Большое спасибо за прекрасный рендер
-
there is option to install it in the installer
It still is a failure. Conflict with Vray.
-
Hello,
uhm... nice!!
Tnks
-
Totally love your work!! can't wait to have another go! :-)
-
Thanks alot!!!!!! best renderer ive ever tested
-
finally... :D thank you yery much.
-
it is still unfinished, so it is hidden
After installing MAYA 2015 corona V6 can run!
Perhaps the lack of VC + + components.

When I use the multi texture map inside a corona mix map, the DR machines seem to be give consistent result.

How to select EXR options in "output autosave" if I want autosave in 16bit float, for example?
-
That autosave currently does not support any format options
-
Maybe, in future, you will do this, please? It can save the disk space and faster the work with files.
32 bit dont need in many cases, and "integer" too.
What are the defaults in Corona EXR autosave now?
The difference of size are about 10 times between manual save in 16 bit and autosave.
And also I saw an error opening EXR in Photoshop CS4, saved by Backburner 2014 (second pic)

Hello Ondra! I use slate material editor and when i load my scene and open it - i cant see anything in left column. It happens every time (re-open the program). I changed my os to 8.1 and max to 2014 sp5, but... My friend uses max 2013 and win 8 and yesterday i saw similar thing. Maybe i am wrong, and it coincidence. I wanted search errors in a program or os, but now i am not sure. Attached screenshot.
If i touch little triangle under tab (material/map editor) next turn it off and turn on again - i can see all maps and mats rools.
-
Thank you and congratulations to the team.
Really good gift for my birthday 2 weeks from now.
Keep up the good work!

@Woshilvba: did the exe work but corona is still crashing? Or the exe is not working?
What is your exact error message? And wha are your specs an OS?
I would like to help
Cheers.
Windows 7 64bit
Max 2011 64bit Simplified Chinese
Windows system has been updated.
After installing the corona V6, MAX has an error report.
VC + +2013 has been updated, it seems that there is no effect.
I do not know what needs to install.
Thank you very much for your help! ! !
Try running this program: http://corona-renderer.com/stuff/AVX2check.exe - does it crash? Or does it say you are able to run corona?
3dsmax still show me the Error code -1073741795 ... also after all windows Updates .. iam exited to test and work with it ....
What's the solution plz
the AVX2Check.exe Crash when executed ... veryyyyyyyyy sad for that
-
thank
-
That autosave currently does not support any format options
but batch render (autosave) don't have any issues afaik, right?
-
I found one more bug:
autosave does not work with net path like //server/project/render/
And something strange in CoronaAO with Corona_Texmap channel. Marked areas must be clear white, this is plain surfaces (spline-extrude or poly):
-
I just installed A6. Am I doing something wrong? can we still not see the lights and shadows in realistic mode? Or is this something you will put in for a final paid release?
-

You need to install them repeatedly: install all available, restart computer, search for new updates, install, repeat. There should be new ones each time after restart for several iterations
-
thanx! im downloading and will try to install this and see the system.. I hope this would be the next generation above vray

Thanks!

Is the white material completely white? It seems to be really bright and it could be the culprit for the white dots I think.

I've found a bug in CoronaSky... or maybe there is a turnaround ? It seems that now I can't change the colors. Odd.

I'm not sure what your problem is but I'd like to add that as far as I know these colours won't change anything as far as you are using Hosek&Wilkie sky model.

I'll make it today

Hello , may ask do there is available version for 32 bit maybe?
-
There will be no 32bit versions of corona, since almost nobody uses 32bit system anymore, and some parts of the code are written specifically with 64 bit architecture in mind

I think, i dont have much pictures for daily, or what needed. Except that caustic thing.
Why i waiting... i have that creative crisis (writer's block, or something, whatever), always waiting something new...
But your render pretty awesome. I would like to corona existed a five-ten years ago...
-
corona could not have worked 10 years ago, computers were too slow for brute force rendering back then

I like this render,this is even better than Vray. I'd like to use it as my main render if there is a good blender-exporter.
thanks again for this good renderer

and just like that my hopes are gone, no 2015 support yet, aww.

I read on the forum that the latest build which would be 2015 compatible would be released at the end user event last weekend.
I haven't seen a build or read anything contra since.
I am dying here waiting for this build
-
It was released, but only for the EUE attendees. It is still not fully stable. Once some more bugs are fixed, public version for everyone will be released.
-
thanks !!!!

Arrrrrgh !
I'm about to end it

Hi, is it possible to get a build that works with cpu affinity?

Hello,
In the link provided on this page from the new website the A6 build doesn't seem to have 3ds max 2015 support:
https://corona-renderer.com/download-demo/
Since the A6 will be the only build publicly available for free and since I've been reading on the forums that some daily builds offered 2015 support I was wondering how can I get an A6 for max 2015.
The pricing is exceptional for the software, especially the educational version, I'm needing this for a larger studio, where I intern, that makes purchasing decisions with some delay.
Thanks
-
ok, I will update the build with 2015 support later.
-
Many thanks
-
Any updates on the matter ?
-
I also have the same problem...
Please make the A6 version for 3dsmax 2015
Thank's!!!!
-
It willl be done before 1.0 demo runs out ;)
-
Hi, still no update for Max 2015!
Any news?
-
YES. I was thinking the same. Should start to render.....
Downloaded a6 but.
..no 2015?
-
Ondra, can we have some kind of info? You said it'd be done before March 1st
