You're my hero! The fix worked a bit too well - it completely removed all the views and SME become unusable, apparently there's no way to add new views, when all of them are deleted. Fortunately simple restart fixed that issue and my scene is working again. Thank you very much!! :]

BTW, if anyone knows if it's possible to close all slate material editor views without opening SME itself, i would love to know that, because that bug had fucked one of my scenes and i would want to salvage it if i can.

3ds Max 2024, Corona 12

3ds Max immediately crashes when a) active renderer is set to Corona and b) Vray material is being opened in slate material editor. Reproducible 100% on my end. I don't have Vray installed if that matters.

Update: compact material editor is affected by this issue as well.

This option of the interactive render in the settings of Corona 12 is no longer available. Is there another solution to remove this blur during IR ?

The option to turn off denoiser is still there, it's just UI has been slightly changed.

Corona bitmap is not supporting ifl format, there's nothing you can do about it. You can use Max bitmap and try to change its filtering from pyramidal to summed area - it's slightly better than the former, but still not as good as bicubic. Blurring in post might be most sensible approach.

[Max] I need help! / Re: Controler tab not showing in material editor

« on: 2024-09-18, 11:02:46 »

Maybe try to tick show incompatible checkbox? Controllers are visible for me in 3ds Max 2024 Corona 12, but i recall that in some older Corona version some maps were incorrectly labeled as incompatible.

[Max] I need help! / Re: How to control all differnt map uvw size from one controller?

« on: 2024-09-18, 10:57:08 »

You need to create controllers and tiling or UVW scale parameters of bitmap node. Just keep in mind that in case of bitmap you can use either linear, or bezier float, but for Corona bitmap you must use bezier point3 controller.

[Max] I need help! / Re: corona mix vs composite

« on: 2024-09-17, 20:49:00 »

There are some difference between them, like for example composite lets you use unlimited number of map, while with Corona mix you'd need to use nesting if you need more than 2 maps. On the other hand Corona mix lets you choose between linear and sRGB mixing and it also has some additional layer controls. But for general purpose they are interchangeable, you can use one or another depending on your personal preference.
