Sounds like a good time to try the new Decal Object.

Thanks. I started working again. Odd. If it happens again, I'll send it in.

[C4D] General Discussion / Can't Use Denoise All of a Sudden

« on: 2022-07-10, 19:57:25 »

I'm doing a :10 sec. animation and denoising won't turn on. I have it set to Intel at .9 in the render settings, but in the VBF, it is off and can't click it on. I just did a one frame test and the history shows Denoising: 0:00:00.

Never seen this before. Any ideas?

I mean we should be able to use stacked materials, especially with leaves. Set one to Front and one to Back. I pretty sure there is a Corona tutorial showing this practice. Curious about the bark affecting the leaves.

OK, well, as fate would have it, I just experience the exact same issue as @malindis did. See the image for more info, but maybe the issue is with how Corona handles stacked materials in C4D?

For what it's worth, in Cinema 4D, if you delete some of an object's polygons and/or points, the original bounding box will remain as well as its original axis point. I would need to run the Optimize function to clean up the remnants and also run Reset Axis to get things back to normal. Might not be the same issue here, but it may produce a similar result. Haven't tested though.

The Corona developers or did you not send them the project?

Very curious that the flicker is less and different, or maybe just fewer frames so we only see it for a split second. Did the flicker also happen for the devs?

[C4D] General Discussion / Light Mix and Animation

« on: 2022-07-07, 13:45:06 »

I understand how to use the Light Mix system and have in the past with still images. Pretty amazing tool. My question is, can I render an animation once and, utilizing Light Mix, save out the same animation with two separate light setups so I don't have to render the animation again?

Let's say I want the same animation with a bright sun coming in the window, and I also want an evening animation as well.

@malindis Have you done a test WITHOUT Team Render or Render Farm? For some reason, this type of "flicker" makes me think of different render nodes missing an asset and rendering that one material lighter. Could be wrong, but a good thing to rule out. Does the flicker happen on the same frames every time?

I'm getting an error when installing v9 daily build on Mac. "Failed to initialize material library download"

Is there a manual way to install the latest library?

Nice. Those guys are awesome. I've been asking for years for Corona products. I'll be picking up too.
