1.) This is strange, it should work... So you have an object as a parent of a Corona light and then you instance the object? Is it render instance or not? Render instances of lights are not supported even in C4D itself, so their support in Corona might be limited.
2.) You need to distribute all the plugins to clients too.
3.) You are right, denoiser for TR will be added later.
1. You are right, they are render instances. It works perfectly in the Corona VFB but not with teamrender.
I am new to corona and C4D. not having render instances will have a huge impact on memory in render time, right?
So the better workflow will be to keep using render instances but duplicate my lights independently, right?
2. I just tested LOD again and it works, not sure why my previous tests popped up with errors. Sorry about this.
3. Thanks, looking forward to Denoiser in TR.
