Hi all,
I have a problem with corona lightmix now:
the problem is that every time I open the 3dsmax file i have to reload the lightmix settings, but before it normally had the previous loaded settings .
It becomes a real Trouble with network rendering as i have to reload the light-mix settings manually on the server for each render .
I hope that I could explain my problem properly
-
to explain my problem more ,
For example , now I have the frame buffer with my lightmix settings , but when Isend it to render on server , it loses the settings !!
-
Are you adjusting your settings in the VFB, or using LightMix CONF file?
Which version of Corona?
For Max or C4D?
-
Hi , thanks for reply,
i am using configuration file , which works fine on my frame buffer , but once i send it to network rendering , it changes .
BTW, it is always the last light mix object value is changed but the rest remains the same, so that i made an empty light select pass to avoid this problem , it solved the problem for me , but i don\t know why this happened.

Hi,
I have some further questions:
1) Which version of Corona, Max, and Windows are you using?
2) Are you using any 3rd party plugins? (iToo, VizPark, Siger,.....)
3) What kind of network rendering are you using? Corona DR or Backburner, Deadline, or other?
4) Why is it a problem when using network rendering? If the LightMix settings are applied correctly on the master machine, then they should be also applied to the results collected on the nodes and sent to the master.

Hello, tried reproducing this, but failed. Everything is working as expected. Here are the steps we followed:
Create any scene with a few LightMix items
Adjust LightMix settings in the VFB
Save LightMix preset as a CONF file ("save" button in the LightMix tab of the VFB)
Reset LightMix settings to defaults
Load the LightMix CONF file
Start distributed rendering
Observe that the CONF settings are applied correctly to the master, but not to nodes.
Please provide more details about this issue and explain what correct steps should be used to reproduce it.
Also, please answer on the questions I asked in my previous message.
Thank you in advance.

any solution to this? its happening to me as well, the last object value is always changed to 1 everytime i open the file
-
See the questions that Marcin asked for the extra info we need. Looks like we never heard from the original poster. but perhaps you could provide answers to those questions so we can continue to investigate using your details. As noted, at the moment, we can't reproduce it, so can't do further investigation.

the problem is happening without sending the render to DR, even if i save a file and my friends open it the last lightmix value is reseted to 1.
only plugin being used is railclone lite
Max 2015, corona 5 hotfix 2

yes but it only changes the last element values in the list

We have it logged, hopefully will be fixed in V6.

OK for now I'm just adding a new light select element at the bottom of the list so it won't mess with my settings it's a stupid thing to do but it's works around this bug
When will v6 be launched? I heared that it was supposed to be released at June 2020. Is there any estimated date that you can announce? Thanks.

For the most recent estimate on release dates, you can watch the roadmap: https://trello.com/b/EfPE4kPx/corona-tentative-road-map-3ds-max
Also, there is always at least 1 Release Candidate first (how many depends on whether serious bugs are found), so you can watch for the release of an RC to know that 6 is coming soon :)
