[Max] Bug Reporting / Rendering and Stitching Issues with .CXR Files in Backburner and Corona Renderer
« on: 2024-03-05, 01:53:24 »
Good time of day, everyone!
I spent about 7 hours on the forum trying to figure out and solve my problem. My problem:
1. I have a very heavy scene for which I need 80GB of RAM, and rendering takes a very long time, or 3ds max crashes.
2. The scene contains a large number of render elements, such as LightMIX, and I really need them.
3. I'm trying to render the scene in Backburner with the "Split Scan Lines" feature enabled.
4. As a result, I get several pieces of .cxr files that refuse to properly merge into one .cxr file, as it happens under normal conditions.
To be more specific:
* I get one file that has no passes and is not displayed in terms of lighting as it should.
* and I have, let's say, 5 pieces of images, in which everything is fine, but they do not stitch together. They just lie alongside all the passes and LightMIX, but don't merge into a single .cxr file.
Reproducing the problem is as easy as pie:
1. Create a simple room box.
2. Add some signature teapots.
3. Add light sources.
4. Add light sources to LightMIX.
5. Try to render all this into .cxr as usual, but through Backburner with "Split Scan Lines" enabled.
6. Get a headache.
Software: 3ds max 2024, Backburner 2019 (latest available), Corona 11.1
Is there any way to finally deal with this task?
P.S. There is a script in the some thread that allows saving the .exr format somewhat adequately, but I didn't understand if it's possible to do the same with the .cxr format. With .exr, I barely managed to cope with the script, and even then, it's such a workaround...
