[Max] Resolved Feature Requests / Photographic exposure controls?

« on: 2012-10-20, 22:12:14 »

Any chance for photographic exposure controls (shutter time, f, ISO, etc) or at least Corona camera object with such settings? It's good for setting up proper light intensity for example when not using procedural sky environment just plain colour with tuned output amount or objects like lamps. Of course this would be connected with real world light units and stuff like lens distortion and glare.

update: changed texture's "blur" parameter in mat ed from 1,0 to 0,01 and it looks fine now. WTF?

Here is an example of what I've just experienced. One screen is from max's viewport, one from Corona's VFB, texture is a 1024x1024 JPEG, it's not very high res, but something's wrong as it looks much better in viewport than in final render.

I think I know when this is happening: when you use Corona in one scene and then reset scene so that Corona loads up as active rendere automatically for an empty scene.

If you change default scanline to Corona it's ok.

I've found some tiny bugs (?) that don't much affect workflow but are pretty annoying. Windows7, max2012

When I set Corona as active renderer sometimes the default settings are ok but sometimes some of the values are different - for example "Custom mat. ed" is not checked, max sample intensity is set to 0 instead of 10, in HD cache Precomp step is set to 1 instead of default 10. Anyone else noticed same stuff happening?

Also, in material editor when I am editting a CoronaMtl material pressing TAB key switches cursor to crazy locations instead of next value. Is this intentional?

Found a link to this forum on max3d.pl - one of the biggest Polish cg forums.

I study computer graphics at a private school so I can use Corona on a legal, student version of 3ds max 2012 x64, which is awesome. It's also insane that Corona is free but please don't turn it into a commercial application like Crazybump did.

How do you setup multiple reflection layers in Corona?

btw this renderer is amazing, squeezes all the power from my i3 laptop!
