[Max] Daily Builds / Re: Chaos Corona 10 for 3ds Max - Daily Builds Discussion

It is working as expected for me. Check if you don't have the "Use snap" option enabled in the 3ds Max preferences (see screenshot).

General CG Discussion / Re: Impossible to match real photo with 3d camera

« on: Yesterday at 19:12:42 »

How does it work for Drone photography? for example the Mavic 2 pro  (l1d-20c) has a "1" sensor " 13.2mm x 8.8mm and a focal length of  10.3mm according to  the web and the exif data
How can i calculate these ??

Set film width to 13.2mm (or 8.8mm if you are recording in portrait mode - but I hope you aren't :D ).
I doubt that 10.3mm is the correct number for focal length, so most likely you will need to convert it. I used this tool: https://mmcalc.com/custom
The resulting number is 27.3.

This seems to be confirmed by the info I found online when searching for l1d-20c: field of view ~77 deg, focal length 35 mm equivalent: 28 mm

« on: Yesterday at 18:52:43 »

This is most likely a viewport display glitch and it should be already fixed in the newest V10 daily build: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=38385.0

FTH enabled:
- Your rendering performance will be always crippled (e.g. 50% slower than expected)
- 3ds Max will be less likely to crash

FTH disabled:
- You will get the expected rendering performance
- 3ds Max may crash in case of an error

[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Corona VFB refresh rate :)

Just keep in mind that when using this "feature" there may be some small performance impact. Generally, the rendering is faster with lower refresh rates and slower with higher refresh rates. :)

I don't think we can expect other software or plugins to work with daily builds and release candidates of Corona. If possible, please contact Pulze developers yourself, or let us know and we can contact them on your behalf.

Are you by any chance using motion blur in your scene?

I agree with Rowan that in this case it would be best to submit a support ticket. Sorry for the trouble.

This bug/feature/issue exists in both Max and C4D and we have it reported. :)
It should be gone once we rewrite the VFB.

As dj_buckley noticed, these two images indeed do look different, but not only in the Phoenix area. The textures are different, and there are some other differences in object appearance.

If you can confirm that the Phoenix object getting semi-transparent is he only issue you are facing - please let me know.
Otherwise, we would need to troubleshoot a different type of issue.

I removed the link because it looked suspicious. Please explain what this post is about and, if possible, provide a different link.

[Max] I need help! / Re: [Solved] light include only decals

Another option I can think of would be using an environment reflection override in the material which is assigned to the decal object.
