Fair point. I'll remember to add those details to my future questions. Thanks!

I think have solved it.
The VDB object was intersecting the table which seems to cause the 'shadow' on the surface.

[C4D] I need help! / Mystery object from volume grid

« on: 2022-08-22, 22:39:49 »

I'm pretty inexperienced with the volume grid. But I thought I'd got the hang of it. Unfortunately looking at the render from last night I'm seeing the volume element 'container' seems to be causing a shadow where it shouldn't. (more obvious in the video)
Can anyone help me work out what I've done wrong, or a work around?

[C4D] I need help! / Error: Could not acquire rendering license?

« on: 2022-07-16, 01:37:38 »

How do I resolve this error? The link to "open Licensing Server" on this modal doesn't do anything. And I've didn't see anything in the Helpdesk when I searched this title.

UPDATE:
I've just saved the same vdb file to my desktop and it didn't crash (before it was in Dropbox but set to 'Make available offline' i.e it exists on my machine) So that's some progress.
But ALL our work and assets are on Dropbox so it's not really a long term solution.

I've had a render on the go for a while so only just got around to replicating the crash. Interestingly it doesn't generate any bug reports in that folder. The folders you pointed to are empty. (I've tried it in S24 and 25) I do get a bug report from Apple though if that is any use?

[C4D] Feature Requests / Corona Help from the menu is awful

« on: 2022-04-28, 23:59:02 »

Have we talked about how, since Chaos, the way Help works from the Corona menu is virtually unusable.
I am keen to learn from the documentation how to use this amazing tooling can't work out why it's all hidden now behind login > jump to a browser page > a nav that has nothing to do with help docs > sod it, I'll just close the help and ask on Twitter.

[C4D] General Discussion / S26 + Corona

« on: 2022-04-24, 10:02:46 »

I keep hearing that S26 doesn’t break any plugins. Does that mean that Corona should work? Because I’ve installed it and don’t have Corona in this version.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / V8. Issues with Cosmos Browser

« on: 2022-04-15, 23:07:54 »

Trying to use the Cosmos assets. Signed in OK. Went to download an HDRI. File reached 90% then stalled (5mins). Then all other assets I tried to DL also failed. Relaunched C4D and now Assts browser is empty.
Specs S24 and S25. Mac 12.3. M1.
Any advice on troubleshooting?
