Hi guys,

I noticed that I can't add more than 16 render passes, the 17th is not shown.
Is it a normal thing or am I doing something wrong?

Cheers!

Not that I am aware of - I just added 20 Direct multipasses and could see them all. What version of Corona and C4D? What type of Multipass are those last ones?

Also if you save to CXR or EXR, do all the layers show up there?

I'm using Cinema4d R25.115, Corona version is daily build 8 (02-02-2022).
The passes are not shown in the VFB but they're saved as output files. It doesn't matter which kind of pass I'm using (masks, normals, lightmix etc.), the VFB stops at 16.
Tbh is not an issue if pass are saved but it still is a problem if you wanna check them while rendering.

Just to check, it always cuts off there at 16, and not just with passes that begin with "L_" in the name?

As mentioned above, if you're able to share a test scene with us, that would be great!
