Hi everyone,
I Open the max file > Hit render (interactive or normal doesn't matter) > Image renders.
Stop render > Hit render again > image renders darker. Not overall exposure but looks different in general with certain things looking darker or more shadows being applied. One other thing I noticed is that a mirror in the scene is still reflecting the light version of an object which is now dark.
From here on it just renders like this, until I close the file, reopen and hit render for the first time only. It's largely an issue because I'm sending to Deadline. Once I send to deadline it reopens the file and therefore renders lighter again.
Unfortunately I can't share the file but wondered whether anyone has any ideas. It's very bizarre and I've never encounted anything like it in all my years of working with max+corona.
It's a simple interior scene
Only corona sun and sky plus a few internal corona lights
I'm a vanilla user, I don't change any render settings, have very simple setups.
No Xrefs
Corona 6 hotfix 1
max 2021
Any help is hugely appreciated.
Cheers
