[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Corona & VDB or Alembic (integration with realflow)

« on: 2019-01-27, 17:28:35 »

Corona for 3ds Max does support loading OpenVDB files via the CoronaVolumeGrid but this is not yet added in Corona for C4D - as far as I know, there is no way to import OpenVDB files into Corona for C4D (unless any C4D native loading of OpenVDB works, but I doubt it unfortunately).

Yes, looks like you have NVIDIA denoising enabled, which will run over each pass during the IR (regardless of whether you have chosen it for the final render denoising). See the checkbox for it in the Performance tab section of the render settings, "Fast preview denoise during render".

[Max] I need help! / Re: Render email notifications

« on: 2019-01-26, 19:14:22 »

As the previous reply points to, this would be purely a Max issue and Autodesk's help and tutorials would be the way to go - there's nothing about Corona that is linked to this, so all should work the same as it does for any other render engine as it's host software functionality rather than Corona functionality.

There is only one version of Corona (it contains the various languages for tooltips etc. within it) :)

great would be if the teamrender lic woudl be more flexible and realisze the lic server is running:)

thx!

It does now, the latest daily build (based on Corona 4) resolved the issue of the License Server having to be started first. We'd be interested to hear everyone's results with that update :)

[C4D] Feature Requests / Re: vfb size mismatched

« on: 2019-01-25, 20:37:45 »

This isn't a C4D thing though, Max does the same - when image aspect ratios are different, the VFB shows this (as you can't AB comparison it). You can still use "Save selected element of this snapshot to disk" in Max (but that doesn't save LightMix, just the one currently selected render element).

So, most likely this would involve changes in the core rather than in the C4D version if anything was to change.

It may depend on how often the local machine is receiving updates from the clients? You could try a longer setting for that in the Corona TR set up (using Manual), since if you are off working on something else, it isn't critical how often the latest image results are sent back to the master machine. Don't know if it would have an effect, but might be worth a try (as I would assume the local machine should be idle except when asking for and receiving/integrating results from the Clients)

This should be fixed in the latest Corona 4 daily (see mention of it in https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=22529.msg142263#msg142263) - it is fixed in my test, can you confirm it is fixed for you also? Thanks!

[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Team Render Job failed

« on: 2019-01-25, 14:30:52 »

Be sure to either start the Corona License Server first before the TR Clients, or best yet, update to the latest daily which resolves the need to do that (see https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=23346). Let us know if either of those resolve the issue. It could be of interest to have the scene that causes problems too, since it doesn't happen in every scene - you can use the private uploader. See https://help.c4d.corona-renderer.com/support/solutions/articles/12000033461-how-to-report-issues- for how to report issues and send in things via the uploader (like TR logs, scene, etc.)

Thanks!

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Re: Fume FX 5.0.2 - Corona Render Chrash

« on: 2019-01-25, 14:28:02 »

If ever a crash occurs, in order to know what was happening at the time internally (pretty critical to diagnosing and resolving the problem), we'd need the minidump. Also it's usually best to send in the offending scene too that causes the crash. See https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000524006-how-to-report-issues-3ds-max for full details on how to report, how to find the minidump to send to us (and to generate one in the case of a freeze rather than a crash), and how to upload. Thanks!

Hi! Not sure what is meant by a "usufruento license" (maybe a reseller?). Any discount price is only valid for the first year of purchase, so renewing will be at whatever price is available at the time of renewal (there may, or may not, be a special running at that time). Let me know if that answers your question!

And for that sort of thing, we have the Features Request board :) https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=5.0 (if you just mention a feature you would like in another random thread, it will be super easy to overlook it).

« on: 2019-01-25, 14:13:50 »

Well, for 14 machines you'd need an extended Corona license - the default license only supports 3 render clients. How many render nodes do you have with your license?
