Title: tyFlow instancing support
Post by: jop on 2020-04-10, 11:24:17: Hi,

Reshift is now supporting tyFlow instancing.
Would love to see it happen with Corona! :)

Cheers!

Post by: pokoy on 2020-04-10, 12:36:10: Yes, please, tyFlow will be everywhere once it's out, support should be added as soon as possible. Thanks for bringing this up, I hope it's going to be considered for v6.

In general Corona is a bit buggy with TyFlow, we typically do anything TyFlow related with Fstorm (the speed difference is also quite noticable in Fstorms favour for simple animated scenes with heavy DOF - single 2080ti vs Threadripper 3970x).

Post by: savat on 2020-04-12, 14:41:44: TyFlow lives from 1 year and is the new booster for max...corona users need to profit from it. MB and instances are the first pass and Tyson is surely open for any collaboration between developers. Please, make render funny again and again!

Title: Re: tyFlow instancing support
Post by: Pedrodeleo on 2021-02-19, 13:43:33: I just had to switch to VRay for rendering a scene because of the instancing support.. a total bummer!
I've been messing with XMesh to help on this but it's a lot of extra steps with a bit of pain. Hope this comes out soon!! tyFlow + Corona is an amazing match for lots of work!
Title: Re: tyFlow instancing support
Post by: karlingermano on 2021-05-23, 17:33:46: As Tyflow is becoming more and more a general tool it would be good to see instancing in Corona asap. Same happened to me the other day: I had to use vray for rendering a sim although I would like to use Corona for these kind of jobs too.
Title: Re: tyFlow instancing support
Post by: SamL on 2021-12-06, 12:16:34: I just wanted to add some support for this.

Currently working on a scene with lots of rendered rain which I'm having to find workarounds for on

a) instancing (scene parsing with TyFlow is taking a very long time compared to Forest which is rendering fine using significantly more geometry)
b) motion blur

Ideally it would all just work out of the box.

Exactly. Its possibilities are huge, not only with "pure" particles stuff. Corona team can't ignore it for too long IMHO ;)

It should be already included since corona-8-3dsmax-daily-2022-01-26.exe:

Added initial support for tyFlow.
Note limitations: it cannot scatter lights, per-instance time variation is not supported yet, using vertex velocity might give slightly incorrect vertices/normals in some situations.

You can download the newest daily builds here: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=33839.0

Please check how it works and share your results. :)
