indeed with Dome mapping it works, but in spherical, i didn't notice any changed in the depth blur while changing the env radius in the dev settings

[Max] I need help! / shadow catcher + depth of field ?

« on: 2023-02-20, 13:58:22 »

Hello,

i wanted to use a 360degree environnement with shadowcatcher for the floor. Is it possible to somehow make it work with a depth of field set up with a camera so that the depth also works with the environnement, and not just the central object?

thanks!

Maybe a silly question, but is it worth the price of such a system ?...

same problem here with the render dialog.

(and plus that, install of 2023.2 kind of doesn't work on windows server 2012r2, AUC problem with ADSSO)

Are you sure about this ? Even with maps located on a network mapped drive ?

All my maps are placed on a network mapped drive, and i have the impression when looking at the task manager network activity there is *a lot* of data being transfered to the nodes...

[Max] General Discussion / DR maps transfer ?

« on: 2022-05-22, 11:47:18 »

Hello,

i was wondering when rendering in DR. Are all the maps in the current scene transfered to the render nodes ? Or just the ones that are actually used ?

I often use a CoronaSelect map with multiple hdri's for different tests of skies and lighting. Are all of them sent ? or just the one that is selected ?

thanks

Any updates on the parsing issues being stuck ?

i often render an animated camera for my series of views, and it's quite annoying seeing that when you send a batch of renderings over the night, that in the morning you are stuck on image 4 and still parsing...

(max2022, corona8, RC&FP, DR used)

Cosmos HDRI's are completely white in the EXR. Nothing is displayed. (max2022 corona8)

[Max] Resolved Bugs / background / sky rotated

« on: 2022-04-19, 14:06:42 »

It seems that when using a 360 image or corona sky in a colorcorrectnode or coronaselect, the image is displayed with 90° angle (X + Y axis ?) in the window display

Could it also be related to DR being used ? (same scene, without DR no parsing issues, with DR parsing issues)

Aren't we all somehow administrating computers/servers with remote desktop nowadays ? I'm also stuck with this endless parsing, so i finished sending each batch of renderings to the Autodesk backburner (with or without DR) and then it seems to work

Does v8 changes how it deals with hdri intensity multipliers, and globally, with light intensity values ? Everything seems 5x overblown.
