Gallery / GT3 Night in monza

« on: 2023-05-11, 13:44:10 »

A little fun project I was going for on my extra time, with my love for GT3s and the new BMW Gt3 it just was stunning. also modeling the track was pretty nice to work with, texturing the track and car with the extra details looked nice to do as well. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

The final image I went with:


and some wips along in the attachments.
Worked on 3Dsmax,Corona, Substance painter, iToo Forest pack, Photoshop.

Have you checked with something like PruneScene to make sure there are no retrackers running amok as well as no viruses? The retracker bug and the viruses usually reside in older scene files and once they get into your system (or current Max session), that scene will end up, eventually, screwed up (i.e. slowing down, bugging out, etc.)

hey there, yes I tried that and nothing popped up. and what made me certain is that I reverted back to the 3rd of march daily build and it fixed the super slow viewport issue. i think it had something to do in the latest build with the "Unified Nitrous implementation of drawing CoronaLight in the viewport across 3dsMax versions, which now results in more consistent viewport performance across all 3ds max versions." maybe? or something else that I simply don't understand. but all I know is that reverting fixed it which leads me to believe that the latest daily messed it up.

Hi,

Which versions of 3ds max and Windows are you using? Also, if possible can you send over your scene? I will be happy to look into this.

Cheers!

using 3dsmax 2023.2.2 and windows 11 and the latest Nvidia studio GPU driver. and I get the same result with a fresh scene with nothing in it and Sini software cleaner shows nothing and so would PruneScene.

hey guys, i am truly in love with the latest builds and its truly nice, but the latest version of daily build truly ruined any file that I work with...for some reason the viewport gradually goes really slooooooow till it gets to the point of non workable, the WHOLE UI freezes and idk which part is it. i tried clean models-old models-new models- AutoCAD models in 3dsmax and I would get the same results.

A couple of renders that i did since i was sooooo in love with the 2022 car that the next season of F1 will be using, The model was provided from Turbosquid and the textures were done in Substance painter. Hope you enjoy them.

i think i also found another bug when working with 2D pan zoom When in interactive render it works like charm but once I hit the render to go for the final image it renders the image without the 2D pan zoom

That's as designed, and just as well, too, IMO.

Is it? sorry then i thought it wasn't like that or at least I remember it rendering the view even if I was zoomed in with the 2D pan zoom enabled and it would render a zoomed in version

I just sent the file since i got the same crash even with RC5

Thanks for the minidump, we will look into it. Just to confirm, this happens in all scenes when rendering, even just a box?

What are your windows region, language and locale settings?

(Report ID=CRMAX-778)

i just tested out a couple of things and i found out that it happens when a scene has forest pack and happens once i start parsing scene, region (united states) language (English) Locate settings?

Just as an update, updating forest pack seemed to fix the issue

for some odd reason, once I installed RC4 every time i render any scene it crashes, no matter how simple the model is

Hi,

Maybe resetting your licensing files will help. Can you try deleting everything in: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\CoronaRenderer re-activating Corona and seeing if this still happens.

If you continue to experience issues I'd suggest submitting a support ticket here: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new

Cheers,

Rowan

i'll definitely try that, i tried to reinstall RC3 and it works like charm but once i go back to RC4 it crashes again (with an uninstall and clean install when changing)

Hi,

That's super strange, would you be able to send over a minidump from the crash? Instructions on how to obtain one can be found in my signature.

Cheers,

Rowan

hello i'd just like to update the corona team and congratulate them on the bucket render as in my personal experience it made everything snappier and easier in the progressive render (running on a 32core Ryzen 3950X) and it even made caustics calculate a loooot faster instead of waiting for 4 full passes I'm waiting for the buckets. so thank you again for the development you guys are doing.
