Different Colors Between Corona VFB and Saved Image

(1/4) > >>

DLieber:
Hello,
Hope you guys are doing all right.

I'm using Max 2025 and Corona 12. In the Corona VFB, the render looks fine, but when I save it, the colors appear very different.
Can someone please help?
Thank you,

Daniel

Could you share a screenshot showing the difference? In what format are you saving your renders? In what application are you viewing your renders?

Also, what are your color management settings in 3ds Max? Please check if you have them set as in the attached pictures.

DLieber:
Hello, Maru.

I use Gamma Workflow 2.2 Color Management. Should i use the OCIO-3DMax Default? What´s the difference between then?

I changed the photoshop color management to my monitor´s one (DELLU3223QE) and it worked fine.

Thank you!
Cheers
Daniel

There is no right or wrong here. Gamma is na older workflow, but it is also less likely to cause any trouble. You can learn about both modes in the 3ds Max help https://help.autodesk.com/view/3DSMAX/2025/ENU/?guid=GUID-DA8CE2F5-1400-45A9-BFCF-A4A8968175CF

how is it possible that Corona team is still misinforming users on this subject?

"case closed" above means: you've just turned off colour management in Photoshop so it matches non-managed Corona. and in the process you used a profile made for your type of display so it sounds correct. right?
