[C4D] I need help! / Re: TEAM RENDERING ISSUE - PLEASE HELP!

« on: 2025-07-08, 14:54:21 »

Which version of Corona are you using?

Can you open one of the problematic scenes on both machines and render it locally, without TR? Does it render ok?

What is your RAM usage when running TR? Perhaps it's some kind of memory leak?

[C4D] I need help! / Re: Tri-planar mapping scale has changed v13 using older files created in v12?

« on: 2025-07-07, 16:22:50 »

Sorry, it seems that I was wrong, and I must be missing something. I rendered simple materials with Triplanar, with Mapping Randomizer and without, using Corona Bitmap, and it rendered the same in V12 and V13. Could you share any scene, even very simple, where this is happening to you?

[Max] I need help! / Re: [solved] Environment override not working

Can you explain what exactly you would like to achieve?

If you mean environment overrides for glass, then you may need to use reflection or refraction overrides instead of the direct visibility override.

Please try this: https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/articles/36798754083217-How-to-fix-sign-in-issues-with-V-Ray-Enscape-and-Corona

I can see that you have also started a support ticket, which is always the best choice for licensing-related issues.

[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Aerial perspective produces the wrong result in some situations

When scattering is disabled, and only absorption and emission is used, it should render almost instantly.

Random idea: create a Corona Volume Mtl and enable Emission in it. Note that LOWER values make it glow stronger. Then assign it to a huge box (or other geometry) below the camera. You may also need to enable some absorption to make it look better. It's just a workaround, but perhaps you could use it?

[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Number Input Occasionally Fails in Post/LightMix

« on: 2025-07-04, 15:14:54 »

I don't think this is anything we are aware of. I am not aware of any other forum reports or support tickets. If it was a global issue, I am sure we would be getting lots of user reports.
Personally, never happened to me either.

[Max] I need help! / Re: Rendering animation in Vantage.

« on: 2025-07-04, 14:55:40 »

Can you please explain what exactly you would like to do? What kind of scene is it? Is it mostly about a large/infinite plane with animated water, like ocean?

[Max] I need help! / Re: The rendering results of projected textures vary with different resolutions.

@394452216@qq.com - are you still having this issue? Could you please contact us about it at https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

The solution is to use this in the string options window in the render dialog window (development/experimental stuff), restart the render if you're updating this while in IR:
int lights.envResolution = 4000

AFAIK the default valuue is 1000, try 2000, 4000 or some other value that improves the shadows. Keep in mind it will take longer to render and might result in a noisier image.

Actually, now this is available as a checkbox in the Scene > Environment rollout. :)

[C4D] I need help! / Re: Tri-planar mapping scale has changed v13 using older files created in v12?

« on: 2025-07-04, 14:25:44 »

I've found some older reports and it looks like before Corona 13, the CBitmap + Triplanar combination did not work at all. What you are seeing in V13 should be the correct results.
If you would like to see identical mapping in Corona 13 as it used to be in 12, try removing the Triplanar node from the material setup (just connect CBitmap directly to the material channel). Please let us know if it worked.

[C4D] Daily Builds / Re: cropping

« on: 2025-07-04, 13:57:37 »

First of all, there is no point in using or providing support for a Release Candidate version of Corona. Please download and install the final 13 release - https://my.chaos.com/download/build?product=Corona

About the issue: it seems that you are using production upscaling in Render Setup > Scene. Please disable this option and try again.
This is a bug and we now have it reported as (Report ID=CMAX-1746).

[Max] General Discussion / Re: Corona bitmap in Background

« on: 2025-07-03, 11:17:32 »

I dont think youre doing something wrong, its the map resolution, Im testing with half pixels and its displaying correctly.
The map has 3200x3000 px, hope this is this not a Corona bitmap limitation?

Sorry, I didn't get this part. So is there some problem or not? What exactly is happening?

Another annoying thing that I noticed is that every time I connect a Bitmap in background the Enviroment resets to spherical type, is this something from 3ds Max?

You mean a Max Bitmap, right? In that case, it's 3ds Max, not us.
