Hi admins

any reason why the denoiser is active even when its off in the settings??
Ive tried resetting the render setup settings and it still denoises.

There are two different types of denoising now - the final render denoising (set in the usual place), but also Interactive Rendering denoising; this one is always done by the Fast Preview NVIDIA denoiser (of course - this is the reason we included it, for IR denoising). It is on by default during IR, but can be turned off under the Performance tab, the "Denoise during render" checkbox.

I think this is what you mean, but let me know if not :)

Hi all, any updates on the DR issues? (crashes, DR servers not connecting, ecc)

Does the latest daily build resolved those or we still have to wait a bit?

I don't think the new daily fixes that (it would be listed in the changelog). We have DR tests scheduled and will do proper fixes before the release.

I've recently had the same issue, but it's not Corona-related. To fix it, you should reset your 3ds max user settings: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Resetting-3ds-Max-3ds-Max-Design.html
Unfortunately that solution worked for me just once - the issue would return after 3ds max restart. So I uninstalled all 3rd party plugins (including Corona), then reinstalled only the ones I needed, and now it's fine.

Is it the Nvidia denoiser? Does it denoise in regular rendering, or only in IR? If it's IR, then you will find "denoise ruing render" option in the Performance tab.

yep that was it sorry  didnt realise it was in the tab.

perfect thanks again.

I don't really understand what's going on with the builds we received since the end of August.
For a very strange reason when we use DR, the Master PC very frequently it remains blocked! When I see the task manager of all the DR Servers + Master, their CPUs are 100% but the system doesn't respond. The mouse cursor does nothing on the Corona UI and everything in the process (at least visually) seems freeze. In fact, when the rendering process comes to end the system is not able to save the image.

Curious thing, when I stop the process via the Backburner Monitor, it stops and then is starts again.
I took a look at the logs but I can't find any error about all this... I am getting crazy...

Does anybody of you has the same behavior?

Thanks,

Build Oct-10
Installer shows an error when update option is chosen.

Code: [Select]

Removing previous installation of Image Editor...
Failed to delete file C:\Program Files\Corona\image editor\CoronaImageCmd.exe
Failed to delete directory C:\Program Files\Corona\image editor\
Operation result: failed
Installing Image Editor... done
Custom installation went fine. On top of that, installer had crashed at the end.

Same situation was with Oct-08 installer, except it didn't crashed.

Just got this today too. Restarted max a few times and it went away.

For a very strange reason when we use DR, the Master PC very frequently it remains blocked! When I see the task manager of all the DR Servers + Master, their CPUs are 100% but the system doesn't respond. The mouse cursor does nothing on the Corona UI and everything in the process (at least visually) seems freeze. In fact, when the rendering process comes to end the system is not able to save the image.

Not the same issue but similar - I don't use DR. After pressing STOP on the interactive render, 3dsmax locks up for a loooong time (on a semi heavy scene). I'm not running out of RAM, my hard drives are not being used (eg for paging) and CPU is about 25% active during this period.  I killed ADSSO in task manager and it seemed to help.

Is it me or the shaderball in CoronaMtl looks bit darker in latest build?

Volume material is not updating properly in interactive render

Screenshots? Comparison? Plz?

Volume material is not updating properly in interactive render

What exactly do you mean? Can you provide more details? Examples?

For example if i am changing colour or distance it will not update in interactive render mode i will have to do other change like turning
on and off the light or move object to see the update something like that

Only in global volume material, or also in material applied on some node?
