A Release Candidate is close to being the final release, but we need your feedback to catch any remaining bugs or other issues from real world testing.
Here are the major features in Corona 9:
- Procedural Clouds - easily add clouds and airplane contrails to your procedural Corona sky. Unlike HDRIs, these are easily edited to match your scene, respond to the angle of the sun, and can be animated!
- Corona Pattern - tile geometry as easily as you would tile a texture, giving you better results than alpha and bump maps, and using less memory too!
- Edge Trimming in Chaos Scatter - get those lawns under control with neat edges!
- Reduce memory required by Corona Bitmaps by up to 30%, with out-of-coretextures
- Shutter Curves for Motion Blur so you can realistically or creatively control the blurring
- Compatibility with Chaos Scans materials
- And much more!
