Hello Surealismo,

This option is not integrated into the plugin yet but sounds like a really good Feature for the next update, I would look into this to find the best solution for your request.

Thanks

Hello Alex,

Thanks for reaching out, I tried to answer your email but I got a delivery issue several times, yes our plugin runs down to 3Ds max 2014, that is the oldest version Corona Render support unofficially.

Hello Gabiru, Thanks for your interest, Unfortunately, every license is unique and linked to your email and system, if you want to use it on more than one PC you will need to request a new license for each system you want to use the plugin with.

Would be lovely if this plugin is capable of aligning Coronasun with the sun on the HDRI. I hope you can implement it in the next release. Thank you.
