thank you for searching!!! but... I'm not too sure of the result: I mean, there is always the ghost plane; If I size it to cover all the ground, the frontiers desappear, but it's enlighting the part covered... I don't und'erstand, it was working fine, in precedent versions...?

hello! i have a red plate, very reflective, but as it is a plate, it has no readable reflections; putting a lamp, it reflects, but it's a bit "poor"...; is there a way to introduce an image in the shader, only to create a more complex reflection? i tried in the ior channel, but it doesn't give anything... thanks for your suggestions!!!

hello! in importing materials, it has probably been deposited a hdr, or an environment, (uffizi etc), which affects the rendering, in the reflections, by being nowhere... where is it, and how to remove it???

hello!!! I need to render a glass ball, with nice reflections (abstract) on the sides... Does anyone have any advice? Do you need a thickness to the glass, etc...? Thanks for your opinion!

well, I followed exactly this procedure, without success; I uninstalled c4d r20, reinstalled, without success; in desperation, I reinitialized windows, and at the installation of the daily build I have the following pop up: the dll is missing: MSVP140. dll; try to reinstall the program (it's the 1st installation, since the reinitialization of windows)... is it necessary to install a version previous to the 8, so that the 8 installs ????

« on: 2022-01-28, 10:25:57 »

I had already had an impossibility to install corona on a machine, but as I had then changed computer, I had zapped the problem; now I would need to "reanimate" the old computer, and, with the installation of the 8, I find the problem intact: the installation window tells me that everything installs normally, I click "finish", but corona does not appear in the r20. ... is there a tutorial, instructions, to uninstall absolutely all components of corona, before reinstalling? thank you for your help!

Well, I have a hard time, trying to activate manually. Apparently, the activation code needs a nearly whole page, with O and 0, and it is nearly impossible, even with obsessional neurosis, to copy it without error. I know, sounds easy, well, just try! Really, it would be Helpful to get a momentary code, simpler!!!!!!!

I'm going to upload a file, but I've just noticed something: in the vbd folder, there were many files (0001-002-003-etc); if I delete all the files, leaving only the first one, the cloud installs correctly; so it would come from uploading the files to animate the
cloud?
