corona vrscene at chaos cloud rendering?

[Stefan-L]

Hi,

woudl an exported vrscene from corona render work in the chaos cloud?

or are the formats too different from v-ray?

[TomG]

The .vrscene is set up for Vantage and not set up for V-Ray (and so, not set up for the Cloud). I'd say it's unlikely to work at all well. I've never tried loading one of our vrscenes into Max with V-Ray for instance, since it is just not an intended use, but I have serious doubts on how well it would work :)

[Stefan-L]

this means Vantage has been adapted to render corona exported vrscenes?

[TomG]

No, it means we wrote a .vrscene export to the specifications Vantage expects :) All the work was on the Corona side. (Before Corona 12, we did not export to/write to .vrscene at all).

[Stefan-L]

well i know, but as vantage reads vrscenes from other apps, then it seems close that a written vrscene can be used also for other purpose (it seems to renders fine in vray via vrscene loader for example)

[TomG]

Possibly, though not guaranteed - there is the overall .vrscene specification, of which certain things use a subset of the overall spec, e.g. writing to .vrscene from Enscape uses only a subset of everything that a .vrscene can contain (because only a subset of things that V-Ray does can be set up in Enscape, so certain aspects of what can be in a .vrscene simply cannot be set up in Enscape and so can't be exported). This means that trying to render a Corona written .vrscene via Chaos Cloud Rendering is far from guaranteed to give a result comparable to your Corona render, since it is tailored to what Vantage expects, not to everything that V-Ray would write to a .vrscene when it is being used for Cloud Rendering. It's certainly not an intended or supported use of a .vrscene from Corona.
