Daily Builds 1.5

[alexyork]

We had a serious bug this weekend with the 1.5 daily from 20th where a coronasun in a daylight system wouldn't render when the job was sent over backburner.  No error messages, just no sun visible in the render. Reinstalling a clean 1.4 fixed the issue, without having to do anything to the scene. Can't provide any scene or further details to help with this, sorry.

No error messages? Can you send the scene to mantis?

[alexyork]

I'll ask my colleague but as far as I remember him telling me there were no error messages. I think we already over-wrote the scene with 1.4 as well, so I'm afraid we can't send it through, sorry about that. We were on a very tight deadline and had no opportunity to debug.

1.I am using daily from 28 june and i have an experience with unwillingness to save resume render in the folder which contains cyrillic symbols. Couple bulids ago i had similar problem when i used autosave (it was not be able to be saved in such folder). It seems to me problem with cyrillic symbols may have place in other situations. But I'm not completely sure. Corona 1.3 and previous dailys had no such problems.
But i should say - corona is becoming faster and cleaner from day to day :) Thank you guys!
p.s The percent of noise is very useful thing. I loved it.


2.I've found one more issue. Yesterday i did 1pic and saved for resume today. Than i did new one, and wanted to resume first (in the morning) but if i try to resume - the second view manifested through resumed image. Sooo strange. 1view and 2view as also "double exposed" image attached.

Hi,

If you did all that in the same file, then no wonder why you get weird results. Resume render asumes that no changes were made in file since dump of exr. You can't expext that Corona somehow will recognize changes that you've made and undo them in order to resum render.

Hello! Of course i can.

"D:\Projects\2016\ЦБУ Гомель\1.9.max

If i try to save frame buffer for resume in folder with cyrillic in path - nothing happens. If there is no russian language in path - ok, no problem.

if I enable Denoising for a render element and cancel the render during the Denoising phase, Max crashes. If the Denoising is not enabled for render elements, I can cancel during Denoising without a crash (Max 2016, 1.5 from July 7th). Mantis ticket created with minidump. I was using the reflection render element in this test.

Also, a thought, any chance of adding denoising to the CTexmap, for those who may want to run it on an AO pass?

Thanks!

As a note to the above, I can cancel the Denoising if it is very early in the phase, but once it gets close to about halfway it crashes.

Also, scatter's temporal adjustment seems to be working as expected, tried it on a cloth cube just as a quick test and the objects no longer popped in and out of their locations.

Hi Tom,
I dont see the ticket in mantis, can you link it?

[TomG]

My bad, had put it in tickets rather than in Mantis, have added it to Mantis now! Glad I don't have many bug reports to submit, but need to get them in the right place when I do :) The ID is 2001.

[Frood]

Wow! Already resolved in four minutes. The quickest fix ever :)

Good Luck
