Title: >Scene does not work in LightMix
Post by: IzaiPiotr on 2017-06-20, 18:10:33
Hi.

I use last daily build 2017-05-17 of Corona Render. The problem is that my Beauty pass doesn't include lightmix settings. The Beauty pass changes them to some other settings after switching between them. In the Lightmix everything is ok.
It goes about types of corona lights.

When I bake it to the scene lights it almost works. I can bake them from bigger value to smaller like from 1 to 0.5 but it does not work the other way. After changing to bigger value it always goes to starting small one like from 1 to 9. and 9 is always as weak as 1.

The Beauty pass is always unaffected by LightMix, that is correct behaviour :) Only the LightMix pass is affected by LightMix.

When you bake to scene, you need to re-render again to see the changes (which now will show in the Beauty pass since the lights themselves have had their values adjusted). I did a quick test and increased a CoronaSun in LightMix to 10 from 1, used the >Scene, re-rendered, and Beauty pass correctly showed the Sun now 10 times brighter.

Can you provide more information on what you are experiencing? Are the results you describe after re-rendering? Is it only for certain light types?

I try with this simple scene. Downgrade works like a charm and upgrade value not.
Test scene:

Apologies, you are quite correct - decreasing and >Scene does change the light intensity, but increasing and >Scene does not, thank you for sending the test scene!

I can confirm this in C4D, and it works fine in Max.

Just bumping the issue. I have just tested this with the newest build and it's still there.
