hello guys,
today I had my first contact with Corona for Sketchup, so this is my very first test
80 passes in 25 min on a laptop i7-4810 mq @2.8 GHz
for this scene I used UHD for global illumination
my wish list: bitmap to Control speculars (reflections), switch to turn sun ON/OFF, hdri support, material override option.
this software is promising!!

hi guys,
here comes a couple test images with Sketchup + Corona for Sketchup + Skatter...
wonder if normal bump is considered on the roadmap?

Hello guys,
Here come some few test renders, I was testing with 3D furniture from the Carl Hansen web page, the models were exported as collada (.dae) from Blender, and then imported in sketchup
When I exported the .dae as quads and imported to sketchup the UVs looked fine in the viewport but were completelly messed when rendered (see first 2 images), when exported the .dae as triangles the UVs were fine in both viewport and render
It would be nice to have lights / light material, and portal lights

Could you please file a bug report for this issue with the scene attached for testing? (https://corona-renderer.com/bugs)

It wouldn't have mattered if you reported it sooner. I'm still busy with core and Max-related tasks, so I didn't have the opportunity to touch SketchUp code in quite some time. Thanks for the testing scene.

Thank´s Ryuu for the last release. The new features work well and I feel that with the latest version of Corona rendering core, it render faster.
I attached some pictures I'm doing for a customer.

Yes I went to the market and leave the computer rendering two hours :)
The render times are faster than the previous beta

What Ludvik (probably) meant was that most Sketchup assets are not Corona-ready. Like pure 255 white walls, which cause long render times. We will need to wait for a nice Corona for Sketchup helpdesk, or you can already see Max guides and tutorials here:

You're welcome. Corona is super simple to set up, but still there are some basic principles which need to be followed for best/fastest results.

That's a good point. I could probably add some warning when such materials are found during scene parsing.

I guess we are all hoping for a warning system similar to the 3dsmax one in the near future. :)
