Title: Corona 7 plant/leave textures almost black after converting
Post by: ucna on 2022-03-13, 14:42:23
I've been having a small issue with corona 7 and 3dsmax, each time I convert legacy materials to physical materials, leaves or texture or some trees/plants renders almost black like it's lost all its translucency. Its mostly happening with plant or leave textures. Other things seem fine. Anyone experiencing this? Is there a workaround to make them render as it should? I mostly experience this when using globeplants library.

Hi, you might want to try the new improved functionality of Corona converter in Corona version 8 RC1, you can find the build here: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=33839.msg196056#msg196056

If you keep having issues with the default settings you might want to enable the Force non-metal option, as seen here:

If your problem persists please let us know.
