Having this very same problem. Using Carbon Scatter to populate my scenes with grass and trees and Corona only renders a few of the scattered objects. Last 3 projects I had to us e 2D grass textures, sad.

Really disappointed that a main feature in C4D isn't always usable with Corona. Mograph is one of it's biggest tools for many people and not being able to use doesn't leave a good feeling since it's now a paid product.

there is a similar problem using Forester... If you render directly from the VFB, all the greenery disappears. If you render with the Picture Viewer and then open the VFB the greenery is in...

Hi, we will start working on this missing feature soon. It's something that has been requested a multitude of times, along with render instance and motion blur issues. Because implementing this is a complex feat that needs a lot of designing and research, I can't promise any usable results in a few days. However, we'll keep you posted!

For what its worth, I feel like this is absolutely the correct decision. Hope I'm not the only one. To me it is the equivalent of not supporting Forest Pack in 3ds Max. Definitely a huge priority for an arch-viz renderer imho :)

Yay!!

Great to hear, thank you! Definitely something that affects my workflow every day. The updates are greatly appreciated.

Tested it in Laubwerk - SurfaceSpread.
Same thing here. Doesn't show up in the IR.

C4D R21, OSX 10.15.2 / Catalina.

I hope it resolves in the next release 6 of Corona

Same here…

Would be good to know if it will be fixed in a coming 6.x release, as this would really be a huge time saver in complex scenes…

Hello,

we are aware that this is a highly requested feature, however, due to its difficulty, it's taking a lot of time to properly implement. It is something that we are definitely looking into and want to implement in the future, but do not have an ETA just yet.

Thank you for understanding,
Jan
