Changes in Corona 12 for Cinema 4D (Daily Build) (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kZij6EEuQ1y-raj9m83P_6sRQ3TSUXCM):

* Added:
* Initial support for exporting scene into Chaos Vantage
* New scene exporter for Corona scenes into .vrscene/.vantage that can be rendered in Chaos Vantage
* An option to quickly export and render current scene in Chaos Vantage (added in main Corona menu)
* Note that not all features are supported, we'll continue improving the quality of exported scene both in following builds and future major releases
* Initial prototype for new version of Corona VFB
* Option to switch to new VFB 2 is available in Corona preferences, C4D must be restarted before the change to different VFB version has an effect
* Added possibility to compare different resolution renders
* Added possibility for loading of Corona EXRs and editing them directly in VFB
* There are some known issues regarding DPI scaling other than 100%, most of these reproducible on macOS, we are working on improving these for the next build
* Added new tonemapping operator for Lift, Gamma and Gain
* Added the option to apply the LUT in linear color space instead of gamma-mapped one
* Added option to use automatic caps in Corona Pattern modifier
* Pattern visibility in Corona Pattern modifier can now be controlled with shader
* Added visual indication of pattern direction for Corona Pattern modifier
* Added option to fit Corona Pattern cropbox using space of another object
* Fixed:
* Avoid node stacking in node editor UI when adding multiple bitmaps via drag&drop
* Fixed issue with texture paths in XREF objects not correctly resolving
* Fixed several issues regarding crop/placement set in pixel space (e.g. when changing bitmap path to one with different resolution)
* Fixed incorrect custom gamma when exporting C4D bitmap to Standalone
* Fixed Cryptomatte accumulation from EXR (affect TeamRender and resume render)
* Fixed incorrectly handled animation tracks for some spline widgets used in Corona/Scatter (e.g. Scatter altitude, Corona Color Correct shader)
* Changed:
* Removed "Ignore missing tiles" option in Corona Bitmap as it was only used for error reporting; instead, number of loaded tiles is now directly included in the image description

This is our first RC, we'll now focus on testing and resolving remaining issues.

Changes in Corona 12 for Cinema 4D (Release Candidate 1) (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LjPEUVYQV9hf3NvL0oK5_vkFlfRR1_ff):

* Chaos Vantage export improvements:
* Added support for decals
* Added very basic support for C4D noise shader
* Added limited support for MapRandomizer and MultiShader
* Added support for Sphere light
* Sphere, rectangle and disk lights (without texture) are now listed in Vantage Lights tab and render in Vantage much faster
* Support for camera near/far clipping, DOF, tilt&shift and resolution/aspect ratio
* Improvements in new version of VFB:
* VFB 2 is now enabled by default
* Added support for multiple LightMix configuration in single render (each tied to single LightMix pass)
* Fixed IR resizing of render based on VFB size and added support for IR size locking
* Polishing of UI design
* Several fixes related to DPI scaling
* Fixed issue where displayed statistics in VFB2 were inaccurate (actual ray/s, sample/s) or missing (max passes, noise limit)
* Added
* Added solo nodes in node material editor
* In this version the material with active solo node renders with that node used for diffuse
* In next version we plan to switch the behavior to use self-illumination instead, similar to how this feature works in other renderers
* Lister now shows instance count also for Chaos Scatter and Cinema 4D Cloner and Array
* Fixed and changes:
* Corona and Scatter shader menus are now copied (instead of being moved) to top-level shader menu in node material editor
* Warning is shown when old sky data is installed on the system and Sun elevation is set below 4.2 degree
* Fixed issue with Pattern modifier handles showing size clamped to zero when dragging handles in negative axis direction
* Added warning about deprecating Corona Material Library and moving it to Cosmos

* Fixed issue with subdialogs of VFB2 (e.g. Aperture editor or color picker) not staying above VFB2 dialog
* Fixed crash in VFB2 when removing comparison while editing CXR
* Fixed rare crash that occurred when changing resolution of IR while denoising

* Fixed issue where Aperture Dialog would become larger after every collapsing/expansion of the collapsed properties
* Fixed missing update when editing history items
* Forbid of showing context menu for names of history items
* Fixed color probe to always adapt size to fit the contents
* Disabled expandable buttons are no longer highlighted
