General CG Discussion / SSD Workflow

« on: 2024-01-30, 12:45:58 »

Hey everyone,

I have a question for the workflow with a SSD.
Sometimes I need to render on my 16GB RAM macbook and often get the warning message (if not crashing) "virtualized RAM means physical RAM + swap file on HDD/SSD".
In researching on several forums I found many different ways of using the SSD.

Does it already help to save the projects, assets and textures on the SSD?
Should the entire corona material library be saved on the SSD?

Thanks a lot. looking forward to hear how your work flow is.

[C4D] I need help! / color different in final render

« on: 2023-05-19, 22:19:19 »

hey everyone,

i came across a problem for my final render, which I couldnt solve.
As soon as I change the output ration to my final size, the color of my bitmap loses a lot of saturation. (see attached a snippet)

the settings are exactly the same.
Linear workflow in my project settings is activated.
and corona VFB setting is set to "use Cinema 4D color space"

Does anybody have a clue why that happened?
I have similar scenes set up where the problem does not occur.

Thanks in advance!!

[Max] I need help! / LED Screen

« on: 2023-05-05, 18:42:04 »

Hey all,

whats your best suggestion to render a big format LED screen, where you can still see the dots and the black space between?

I tried a light emitting plane behind a surface with thousand of holes, but thought the render time could be reduced with for example a RGB screen texture channeled on the light emitting plane. I havent found any Corona references though how that would work.

Thanks in advance!!
