Title: Software openGL showing on render setting?
Post by: Nuno on 2020-01-31, 18:27:31

Hello.

I just now started to use c4d r21 as well with the new corona render 5. Strange enough is that all files that were made in previous versions of both c4dr21 and corona 4 now when opened with c4dr21 and corona 5 displays a "extra" render attribute... the Software openGL?
I tested rendering with that option on and off and the results are the same. Does anyone knows what that option stands for?



Thank you
Nuno

I'd leave it off for now, it's partially supported (https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=26054.msg157578#msg157578), the plan is for it to allow better representation of a Corona material in the realtime viewport (only once it's finalized, though :) )

It's also on the release blog, https://corona-renderer.com/blog/corona-renderer-5-for-cinema-4d-released/ (search for OpenGL)
