[Max] Corona Goodies - User Contributions / SlateConnector

« on: 2014-09-24, 16:04:55 »

Hey people! How are you doing?!

Well, here's a little contribution for the Corona community (and a way to say "thanks" for Ondra taking me on the dailies ;) ). The script ISN'T finished by any means! Actually it has some flaws (which I'm trying to address as fast as my pre-school Maxscript skills allow me) but it's pretty useful as of now (version 0.2a) and can speed up the process of mass manipulating materials.

The idea was planted by Marcelo Souza (wooorld faaaaame :P) and made possible because much better scripters than me helped a lot along the way. Hope you guys find it useful on your daily work!

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Self Reflect Refract on Caustics

« on: 2013-09-26, 21:15:25 »

Not sure if this has been posted before but here it goes:

Yesterday, after 12 hours of rendering caustics on corona I noticed that the light generated by the caustics are not visible in the reflections/refractions of other objects on the scene. Unfortunately, I don't have the image here to show the problem - the PC crashed while rendering.

Worth noting is that I used the VCM engine and, even after this 12 long hours, I could not get rid of noise/fireflies on the caustics bright spots. I'll make another render later on a lower resolution so I can post the image here.

Cheers!
