[Max] I need help! / How do I .. In chaos scatter

« on: 2024-04-30, 23:16:32 »

Hi, im trying to do some simple scatter using chaos scatter.

1. First when i make an spline scatter, where can i specify a surface for it to stick to??
2. How can i scatter an empty object ? In forest i just create an empty object and that way i can have an scatter that has some gaps, like its not filling all the spaces (its really handy, trust me...)
In corona scatter if i create a box and turn it not renderable the scatter will render it... If i create a dummy it will not work..

Thx in advance !

[Max] I need help! / Re: An exception occurred while rendering with 3ds Max

« on: 2024-01-22, 22:58:03 »

Im using a different pc to do the rendering, but also have tried on the same pc that has the 3dsmax scene opened and the result is the same.

Big update: Turning all the railclone to mesh works, the render runs just fine through Pulze render manager and our farm.
Already contacted itoo with the findings

[Max] I need help! / An exception occurred while rendering with 3ds Max

« on: 2024-01-22, 20:48:11 »

Hi, we are experiencing a bit of pain lately, we are trying to render a very simple scene through Backburner AND Pulze render Manager with the same bad luck, we got this message
''An exception occurred while rendering with 3ds Max. This render will abort. If you render again without resolving the exception, you may experience instability"  The scene starts parsing and it closes leaving that message on backburner or the logs of pulze render manager.
We are using max 2023.3.4 and corona 10.2
The scenes will render locally with no problem, our network is working for everything else that we throw

Please HELP!

*Update  We also test Corona 11.1 and the results were the same error

We developed this house as an internal training project for our last team member in order to teach him the office workflow, and to test new training ideas.
The project took 1 month of constant training, revisions and previews, in the end the result was very good and we expect to replicate the process with the next new members of our team.

[Max] I need help! / How to sample small lights consistently ?

« on: 2023-09-13, 00:36:57 »

Hi, i have a bit of trouble with an animation shot, i have a top view camera looking at a string light, it has lots of lights, the problem comes on the animation side, not all the bulbs show on each frame, I have tried different noise targets, solvers, corona settings, the best combination has been uping the resolution and lowering the noise target, but for an animation its all going to hurt the render time, anyone has experience in this ??
Im currently rendering at 2560*1440 and 5 noise target (was targeting 1920*1080 but its way worse..)

If i put a range from 0 to 48 and hit export, IF the max timeline is set to 0-100 it will export 101 Frames
if the max time line is set to 48 it will export 49 frames.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Weird shading in corona 10 vs 9

« on: 2023-08-10, 16:33:53 »

We found a bad corona 10 behavior on a couple of situations involving corona AO and in other circumstances with round edges.
We narrow the problem on a combination of Corona AO and a specific color correction map being used.
and for the round edges it was a combination of a map and the non legacy (the legacy option was fine)

Non of this happens in corona 9

Corona 10.1 and 3dsmax 2023.3.3  win 10
We can share a private scene, its a big file..
