Title: How to convert Vraysun to Corona?
Post by: fraggle on 2015-12-15, 15:14:52

Hello,
is it normal to have the Vraysun unconverted after running the material converter?
What type of light can I used to replace such light?

While trying to render in Corona the Vraysun do not appear (no direct light) in the render.

Thanks

What do you mean by "unconverted" ? Normally all Vray Sun objects (either standalone or in a Daylight assembly) should be converted to CoronaSun objects. I just tested it here and it seems to work fine.

Thanks,
Sorry, it is converted, but the ray are not matching the same trajectory than the vray sun.

Sorry, I'm still not sure what you mean exactly. Could you provide some screenshots? Or even better, a scene if its reproduceable.

You can always render the Vray sun/sky out as an HDRi and use it in Corona. I have done this myself multiple times.
Place a camera in the center of the world and use the camera override in Vray render settings.
