Yes. I'm asking about support for the latest Corona Renderer 9 and is there anything going on in that regard?

Is there any information regarding the latest Corona in Blender? The topic is already several years old and this information is missing. I am referring to the real development of the plug-in for Blender.
The topic Which 3D soft to integrate into next? is closed, but the poll indicated that Blender was chosen by many users.

[Max] General Discussion / Re: GPU ! RTX

About the updates. Actually the enormous steps Coronarender takes from version to version is impressive. Chaos scatter, the Chaos libraries, Cosmos, the incredible way decalls works now, all the assets available from Maxtree and so many others, Clouds and more. And I hardly crash huge files.
Just is this the right way to go? If I wanted to use Chaos libraries, I would just pay for Vray. The rest are just interesting marketing things that no one will use in practice. You can live without them... The advantages of Corona are:
- intuitive interface
- it is very fast to get a nice render
- nice masks
- easy handling of nodes
- super window with post-processes
- price used to be an advantage. This is slowly being erased which is a big minus.
Minuses:
- no GPU rendering...
- nodes need 3ds max installation (this is a mega big minus). I don't know why this topic is not moved. Is there really no way around it? After all, it is a misunderstanding that I have to run around the office and install 3ds max trial on the other machines.
- no meaningful system to render object lines etc. something like lineart
Sometimes it seems to me that the people who design this soft do not use it themselves. They have a vision from the 90s , and now times have changed. My conclusion is that the potential of the best rendering engine on the market is slowly being squandered. Sorry Team Corona, but these are my conclusions after these few years.

I checked trello and I don't see, any spectacular changes in the release of Corona 10. It's more cosmetics and polishing of the product. It seems to me that Corona does not want to be competitive with Vray, because how else to justify the price increase when no really big changes have been added? Not much has changed since Corona 8.
You guys are doing a good job, but locking yourself to CPU only is a road to nowhere. TomG you keep writing about compromises, but we, as users, are ready for them. Currently, rendering times have gotten cosmically large. I'm already starting to use Cycles myself, because it scares me to render for a few days some animation.
In my opinion, instead of wasting time on, for example, a new benchmark or a faster material rendering preview, the focus should be on the GPU. There is no point in putting it off. Corona is about to reach such an absurdity that changing the desktop icon will mean a new release.

[Max] I need help! / [solved] Right-Click menu problem
« on: 2022-12-14, 10:10:05 »
When right-clicking, the "Open Corona Converter" and "Open Corona Proxy Exporter" menus are displayed instead of the standard "Right-Click" menu. Where can I change this?
I found solution - "reset default work space" :)

Another price increase. This is all going in the wrong direction. Render nodes to be bought separately, so that there is an impression that the price has not changed. It feels like Chaos Corona, not good old Corona....

Are materials with triplanar also visible?
Great news! Good job.

[Max] Feature Requests / Re: The most wanted feature?
« on: 2022-05-30, 12:40:51 »Yes, I was kidding. I assume you are also kidding when you call Cosmos, Scatter, and all the other features we added in v8 "nothing".
In my opinion these are patches which could have been added as 7.1. Sorry but these are not changes to be called a new version with double price. I'm more interested in having more GPU based speedups and a full-fledged Corona add-on for Blender (not an exporter) than access to Cosmos that is just a Chaos service and Scatter that is just another way that I can obtain with already buyed ForestPack.
I would stay with lower priced Corona without Cosmos and Scatter. These features are just excuse.

Are you kidding? You raise the price (and you don't sell nodes in new price), but give nothing of value in return. I think 25 € is fair when Corona don't have GPU. I'll be using on, but I'm looking more and more at Cycles.

That being said, we need to increase the price of the monthly license to 40 € ($45), up from 25 € ($28.50).https://blog.corona-renderer.com/corona-in-2022-new-features-visuals-licensing-and-more/

You can check the tentative road map for the next version here: https://trello.com/b/EfPE4kPx/corona-tentative-road-map-3ds-max
After reset "GPU/Hybrid rendering" still on top :))))) When will developers listen to users? If you want more money per month, start listening to your users.

The problem is not gone. I was comeback to old Corona 8 build version. That's all.... They only was waste my time. Nobody looked at my screenshots. Sorry but I'm very disappointed.
