[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Fatal crashing with A6 RC1 and RC2

« on: 2016-11-21, 10:12:18 »

Hi dev team,

This bug has been reported in Mantis (by a number of users) but I would like to try and draw attention to it here due to the severity of the bug.

In A6 RC1 I can see that the team have implemented a slightly new 'material presence' i.e. Corona material creation options are no longer under shaders, but rather have their own separate menu. This is a great idea and very welcome, BUT this particular change has resulted in RC1 and RC2 crashing C4D instantly whenever a user tried to create or edit a Corona material (needless to say, C4D also crashes on rendering if one can get that far).

Here is the bug I originally reported, complete with attached C4D bug report:

https://corona-renderer.com/bugs/view.php?id=2263

I know the software is still very much in testing, but I would like some acknowledgement that this bug is recognised by the developers and will get some attention soon. As far as I can see, from looking through Mantis, this is the most severe bug currently in play.

Thanks

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Old bug still in play.

« on: 2016-09-12, 08:46:29 »

Hi, I just want to bring attention back to one bug that is still present in A6.1 and report a new bug (I think):

Old - Corona Multi-Pass settings can not be individually customised for each main C4D render setting - they are uniform across the entire file. This is a big issue for anyone trying to get more than 1 image out of a single C4D file.

New - Object (and I presume camera) motion blur simply does not work at all when batch rendering takes from R17.

Thanks

[C4D] Resolved Feature Requests / Z-Depth

« on: 2016-06-03, 12:41:28 »

The new multi-pass system is generally working great, but one complaint so far. The Z-Depth now comes in as a layer in post-production, rather than a channel.

[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Z Depth

« on: 2016-04-28, 16:27:01 »

Z Depth is broken when using a camera with longer focal length (have tested it with 50mm). Works with wider angle lenses.

I think this was already reported by another user.

The coordinates of proxies seems broken. They do not render in the same orientation as in the editor view.

[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Activating Object Motion Blur Crash

« on: 2016-03-21, 12:45:17 »

Hi, I have encountered an error that crashes C4D at the beginning of the rendering process (after prep). I can reproduce the error with a particular file by activating object motion blur on the active camera. Without the motion blur it renders without crashing.

Attached are the bug reports without the scene itself - it's confidential but if absolutely needed I could discuss with a dev via email about gaining access to the file.

[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Corona Multi-Pass Instant Crash

Using Corona A5 RC1 for C4D. Opening up new empty file, switching to Corona in render settings and right clicking to add Corona-Multi Pass - C4D instantly crashing.

Attached bug report and screenshot.

Thanks

**EDIT: This was R16 (up-to-date) on Windows 10 but can confirm the same crash with R17 just without the notification or bug report.**

[C4D] Resolved Feature Requests / License Server

« on: 2016-03-01, 09:01:33 »

This is more of a feature 'pre-request'. But when you launch the commercial version of Corona for C4D, could you please implement licensing using Maxon's own license server. When deploying a number of C4D licenses in a studio, as I do, plugins that rely on auth tokens present on each machine are a serious pain in the a** :D

The Laubwerk guys have implemented the official license server system for Surface Spread and it works a charm! I helped them debug as they didn't have a working license server setup and if you guys need the same I am happy to offer!

Keep up the great work! :)
