Title: C8 Bug - geometry is missing when rendering - sky also looks weird
Post by: DPS on 2022-05-26, 03:44:22
I opened an C7 scene in C8. And here is the render. No geometry visible when it should be a bathroom. Perspective view looks like this too.

Here's another max scene, a dining room. Awesome.

Really disappointed with this release.

Here's what I get when I try and roll back to 7.

Via the Corona 7 installer & via add/remove programs to remove Corona 8. And if you hit ok it just goes in a loop and doesn't uninstall. Really hard to be objective here.

Can you please clarify if this occurs from all views/cameras of your scene or with that specific view you've rendered. F.e. that free perspective view which I assume is being rendered from top down of the scene, I am asking because this looks like a bug that we already have logged where volume effect of Corona sky would cause this stripe/gradient effect. If possible please send us your scene archived to investigate this further.

Are you using any 3rd party camera scripts/mods in those scenes?

This is expected.

I am afraid I cannot reproduce this, did you manually delete some files before trying to uninstall?

Hi

It's within all views including perspective view & all scenes including new scene.

No I did not delete any files before going add/remove.

Is it possible to archive and send us the bathroom scene for further investigation? Something must be causing this inconsistency.

Hi it’s not scene specific. Even my base max template does the same.

All material swatches are black too.

License server appears normal. Ie it shows when licenses are in use.

I can archive my template if that helps.

It’s like the camera is corrupted. Even maxes physical camera. It’s like the focal length has gone haywire.

Reset , and merge the file to a new file and see if that makes a difference. The orignal scene may have been editted to many times. File do go haywire when they have been ajusted too many times I find.

The issue is present in my base max template too when I start a fresh scene.

Hello,

I wanted to quickly check if the issue has been resolved or if you are still experiencing the same problem.
