Hi,
i don't know what i'm doing wrong but something is not working on lightmix.
i choose a lightmix elements, i use light select ( i did everything manually so i was sure to select everything).
Then after when i open the .cxr i'm not able to use the lightmix.

Thanks
Gp

Can you give us a break down of the steps you are following, including which version of Corona you are using?

For example, at the moment I am not sure where you are saving the CXR from (the Save CXR option in the VFB?), and what you are loading it back in to (the CIE?)

I set the scene
than i choose the autosetup of the lightmix
than when the rendere finish i save from the corona vfb the cxr file.

and this works if i make a simple scene (just a teapot and a light)
is not working in a bigger file but 3dmax gives back an ' render elements error output'


i'm using a corona 1.7 hotfix 3

Just so I understand, at render time, 3ds Max gives an error "render elements error output" ?

So sounds like that is where the issue is, rather than the LightMix being in error. If I understand the error correctly (a screengrab of the error may help confirm it is what I am thinking you mean) And that sounds like the 3ds Max problem where it has invalid paths set for render elements.

Deleting and recreating the render elements is one solution for when Max does that, does that resolve the issue in this particular scene?

Thanks!

1) Error with render output: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000672469
2) LightMix error - where is this screenshot from? It says that you are using an older version of Corona Renderer. Which version are you using?
