Title: V-Ray Convertor
Post by: Glorybound on 2017-09-03, 04:02:13

Newbie here and I have a conversion question. I am a V-Ray veteran and I have dabbled in Corona. The Corona converter tool is great, however, a lot of my materials come out super shiny. I mean, coaches shine like silver. Is there an easy fix for this or do I need to go into each shader and fix things?

Could you show converted Corona material's screenshot?

I've noticed this too. When we switched from VRay at work I converted our library and after a while I started noticing that everything is very shiny. It's especially noticable on 3d people, they look very plastic-y.

But this will clamp all of his metallic materials.

The converter is quite smartly done and shouldn't change specularity amount, just glossiness. Before/After screenshots would help to see how shiny something becomes.
