Try to update your V-Ray version to the latest available.

[Max] I need help! / Re: chrome reflection problem

« on: 2024-07-24, 11:26:53 »

You can't, it's self reflection, but you can try to make it less prominent by making chrome material less perfect. Maybe try to darken metal's colour a bit, give it slight roughness to reflection, add some imperfection map. You can also try to adjust scene lights placement, or even add invisible blocking cards.

You would need to have separate scatter for each flower type, then paint a masks for each of them or use splines to define the areas.

It's possible to do so with the painted mask too, albeit it's a bit hacky approach and for some reason requires additional cancellation of tone mapping, but it seems to be working. look at the attachment, i think it should be self explanatory.

That should be easy - just create box, position it where the column that blocks the way is and apply the same shadow catcher material that you normally apply to the ground.

Your plane has non-square UV mapping. Either make it square, or adjust tiling in Corona pattern.

[Max] General Discussion / Re: Corona 12 a lot slower on old scenes

« on: 2024-07-16, 16:30:45 »

Could you try to reset render setup and re-create it as faithfully as you can? It's possible that some settings got corrupted when loading a scene created in previous version and now it negatively impacts render speed. I didn't compared Corona 11 vs 12, but i did quick comparison to Corona 9 recently and the latest version was significantly faster.

If you modify your pattern tile so that its edges become symmetrical, then it's possible to get seamless result from Corona pattern. The process of setting it up is more labor intensive, but if you absolutely need to use Corona pattern and have seamless tiling, it might be worth to try it. The downside is that you loose an option to use transformational randomization and your color randomization options shrink down to material ID only.

Make sure that high quality blending is turned OFF, unless you absolutely need it. It's known to be real performance killer in mapping randomizer.
