Objects disappearing!

[timg]

Does the same thing happen if switching to the standard renderer?

Yes, objects not visible in Viewport... However render fine in standard renderer as well as IR.

Ok, thanks for confirming. I would suggest contacting MAXON support if it's happening without Corona being used.

@timg What version of MacOS?

I don't see a mention of which version of Corona you're running. Could it be v8 doesn't play nice with C4D r16 from 2014?

@timg Could you try and delete (or rename) the prefs directory to start with fresh ones?
And is there a new.c4d or template.c4d or the like in your C4D root directory?

Thanks for your help too. I use C4D all the time, and the objects only disappear when I use Corona unfortunately. I'll try Maxon though.

@timg What version of MacOS?

Big Sur v11.4

Maxon will only tell you "Sorry, that sounds like Corona issue. You should talk to them."

I’m surprised it even runs on Big Sur to be honest!

Ah, yes, you are right. It is probably compatible enough to have it running at least, but not with full functionality. Maybe adding a Corona material internally switches to Skeleton mode, who knows.

My last idea would be to switch on this option (bottom of the screenshot) in the prefs, it usually is not a good idea to use it but maybe it actually helps in this case.

Tried that preferences selection, however objects have still vanished. I might try to update my operating system to Monterey and see how I go then. Thanks!

Hi, that would be great. I hope it helps. I look forward to your response. Fingers crossed ;)
