Corona with Blender Questions.

[melviso]

I have some questions about corona with Blender that I want to clarify:

Can Corona with Blender be used to render out animations using online Render farms like rebusfarm?
I can't view textures in the viewport even when scaling the textures. Does this work with materials in the node editor/ material tab?
Can renders be stopped and resumed?

Sorry can't help much, however if a render farm provided the plugin and corona then I can't see why it wouldn't be supported.  No idea if any of the farms support it though.

I can't view textures in the viewport even when scaling the textures. Does this work with materials in the node editor/ material tab?

This only works in specific scenarios, and only with nodes.  Possibly something that should be looked at :)

Can renders be stopped and resumed?

No, hoping for some work on the standalone to allow renders to be restarted, this might also enable pause/resume?

Thanks for the clarification, blanchg.

Noticed a lot of improvement and added features to corona for Blender. :)
Keep up the good work, mate.

Hi Glen,

Any update on export render as .exr and import to resume rendering like in 3dsmax or in the near future? :- )

Hey mate,

That sounds more like a corona feature not something that the exporter would be able to do. And updates are pretty slow right now due to other commitments.

Ok. Thanks for the info, mate.
