You are using custom color management settings. I would suggest resetting to system defaults.
If you are 100% sure that you need those custom settings - can you explain why?

Also, another idea is to switch to the gamma workflow and have less headaches.

[C4D] Daily Builds / Re: IPR refresh often at change of tonemappng paramaters

« Last post by Beck on Today at 10:39:47 »

Hello Maru

I tried Corona 13 and it's the same. It also was in corona 12.
@ John: If i delete the camera tag, i lose the corona tonemapping controls, for example no more DOF settings...
One trick is to delete the white balance in the tonemapping controls, then it works. But if i i check bloom and glare, IR refreshes again.

[Max] General Discussion / Re: Not supported Corona's maps in Vantage

« Last post by Rhodesy on Today at 10:07:18 »

Do you know if this list is up to date? I know the latest vantage supports SSS for example but it’s saying it doesn’t support corona SSS on the list? Has the system changed now so vantage supports corona and vray the same and the only limit is what vantage itself doesn’t support on both apps feature wise?

Hi,

When you update/edit a post, there is no notification of it in forums.
In case of important message/attachment, make sure you make it as a new post.
I will have a look soon.

Update: the link is expired. Please reupload it (with a new message in this thread).

I've got three machines active at the moment, a WS and two render nodes.

My solution is to just have a bunch of NVMEs on the WS (got an expansion card because I typically opt for 2TB drives saying "this will surely be enough", it is not) and then if any of the render nodes needs anything it'll take it from the shared drive on the WS.
Any system resources that takes away from the WS is ... Minuscule or I just can't notice it.

If I had multiple WS computer and multiple users then that wouldn't work as well anymore though...

In your case though I'd agree with hurrycat, just buy NVMEs and have everything on local storage. Less faffing around with network setups and coughing up extra money for 10GB networks and what not.

Some sort of a backup for the files could be nice though - you can try doing a RAID or maybe even just saving everything somewhere externally once in a while. Or, and this isn't an advertisement, you can also use something like Backblaze for automatic cloud backups. You can set it to only backup certain drives (for example drives where you have your library) if privacy is a concern.

Not sure how the other options are but Backblaze seems rather affordable to me with their 8$ plans (or is it 10$) and basically unlimited storage. Do double check it on their / their competitors website though.

AFAIK, this is not possible directly, you will need to render in steps and merge everything in compositing. You can always log your feature requests here:  https://chaoscorona.ideas.aha.io/
