Title: Corona not saving denoised render out of batchrender
Post by: lucidmetal on 2020-03-20, 06:26:52

Hi.  I've just made the switch to Corona from Vray, its a great renderer.  I am rendering through the frame buffer with denoising and all looks good.  but when I do a  batch render out but it saves it without any denoising.  If I want to save a version with denoising I need to save it separately as an exr file out of the framebuffer after the render is finished.  Is there anyway around this as it seems like double handling.  I feel like I am missing something simple, can anyone steer me in the right direction - basically I need to do a batch render that outputs exactly what I see in the framebuffer (LUTs, denoising, bloom etc).  thanks.

It really should be working like this (saving what you see).
Which denoiser are you using?
Also possible workaround: add a CShading_Beauty render element. Make sure denoising is enabled in its settings. Make sure you save your render elements.

Hi.

Max 2016.  Not sure how to find the corona version, but it I signed up about 3 months ago and downloaded the corona version then.

Please post Corona and 3ds max version, thank you.

Lots of places to spot the Corona version :)

Also, let us know which denoiser you were using as Marcin asked.

I tried this, but unfortunately I still get the original non-denoised version saved as the Beauty pass.
