[C4D] General Discussion / Compositing Tag render black

« on: 2019-01-29, 10:02:46 »

When I add a Corona compositing tag to an object and tick the "Cast Camera" so the item does not cast shadows it renders pitch black.
Any way to get the item to render correct but without shadows?

Hmm, unfortunately it has to be more than that. It doesn't crash for me :-( I create a new Corona Material, click the eyedropper in the Diffuse channel and select a color with it. All without a crash.

IR must be running, i also get this crash very frequently but not always. I have not reported it as i could not get proper steps to reproduce. I always try to stop IR before i use eyedropper but every now and then i forget and corona will crash. Actually, the whole c4d will freeze up

maybe it is render that cause it not IR... I jump between them so often. I will try and pick up when it happens.

and yeah, I am busy on a fairly big scene so it is same here

[C4D] General Discussion / IR does not stop

« on: 2018-12-13, 08:03:35 »

I often get c4d becoming laggy and when I try to close it to reopen I get a message "Interactive renderer busy, do you want to stop it?"
I use IR but stop it and even close the window.... but in this latest release it seems like it keep going in the background.

Anybody else getting this issue?

It does not happen always....so I cannot figure out how to replicate this bug.

[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Render times

To me corona is a great render engine but very slow. I come from many years in vray, both on max and then a few years in modo.
I could deliver a bedroom in an hour, rendered at 5000x3000 (plus minus) resolution. a restaurant or complex scene between 2 and 4 hours.
This all with Vray's excellent DR system, using 3x i7 - 5960x machines.
Corona crash out every time I use teamrender on a 5000x3000 resolution render, no warning. So I am forced to use one pc to render.
I "write off" the bad render times as I am not able to use all machines together, but honestly I also think Corona is way slower than vray. I would love to see more improvement on teamrender, maybe that can solve the issue

[C4D] General Discussion / images saved from cxr files

« on: 2018-11-27, 11:43:07 »

If I save out all files directly when the scene is rendered, the mat ID will be different colors compared to saving out the cxr file, open that in the image editor and then save out the pass.
Is there a way to get them the same? Looks like a gamma difference or something.

[C4D] General Discussion / Render huge images

« on: 2018-11-07, 17:28:44 »

Hi Guys, I need to deliver an image so the client can wrap a building with it.
They need it 60m x 18m. I know the resolution can be lower than usual but how do I approach this size render in C4D/ Corona?

[C4D] Resolved Bugs / projection map in node editor

« on: 2018-10-29, 13:57:00 »

I am not able to connect a projector map to a layer via the node editor. Please see blue line on the attached screen grab

Never mind...was probably just a small hiccup somewhere...after adding one inside the layer material I could drag and connect nodes again as I want to...

Does RC mean no more new features, just fixing bugs and stability until final release?

Does corona have a clipper similar to vray?
Is so, where do I find it?
