Corona Material/Lights Converter (legacy)

[racoonart]

New Autodesk material error message - I've uploaded file here:

https://www.wetransfer.com/downloads/f409ac9de59f8066e26d7f030f2dcd7b20160818101940/322973

Sorry, I didn't manage to get to it until today but now the file is gone already :( Can you re-upload it?

Same here.

On it. :)

Same as Dubcat. Must be the new inside and outside option in Coronas AO map.

Yep, fixed this one already :) New release was just postponed while I tried to find a way to convert old <1.5 scenes to the new glossiness, so changing conversion curves and so on - but this seems to be a big problem. In part because I'm stupid and also because you cannot access the ouput curves via maxscript directly =(
I fear I'll have to release it without the new tool.

We need a CoronaLUT map. You could just bundle my 1.4>1.5 LUT and the problem is solved.

Everyone go and bump that request thread !

[racoonart]

The problem is not adding another conversion (that could be done the same way as before) but removing the old ones first. I have to find out which conversion curve has been used (ggx or blinn) and then replace it by a new one. Problem is: I can't say which on is which since I have no way to access the curve via maxscript... I can only copy the curve into a special separate curve control element and access it then (which is potentially very slow).

[3dwannab]

I see.. you've done a great job to get the curves to work so far but this is a new hurdle I'm sure you'll find a fix for. :)

Could you release a hotfix for the script in the meantime minus the glossy curve fix?

[racoonart]

Sure, here's the version with the dirt fix :)

Look a few posts up - 1.28 already addressed that problem

[3dwannab]

Since the last daily convert bitmap to Corona bitmap doesn't work.

[racoonart]

Thanks for the pointer :) I've planned to do some fixings and additions tomorrow

Does it only switch the PBR checkbox alone ? Or does it involve some conversion.
