Title: Vray to Corona
Post by: mazta87 on 2015-04-28, 01:00:14

Hi!
Is there any converter or simple kind of magic to change vray scene (bought on evermotion) to corona scene?
I have demo of corona render and if the render of my scene will be good = I'll buy full ver. of Corona.
Anyone knows?

You also already have a version pre-installed with Corona (in your max/scripts folder)

Make sure that you assigned Corona as production and material editor renderer. Render settings>common>assign renderer

Note: The converter will only convert Vray materials if Vray is installed.

@romullus
Yes, it's assigned.

@maru
-This link is unfortunately useless.
-I have Corona.

@PROH
Ok, now what ? Do I have to buy (expensive) Vray ? (I want to buy Corona, not Vray ;/ )

I guess you can use Vray demo.

@mazta87 - I don't have Vray myself. That's why I told you this. I do a manual conversion in such cases, but Maru might be right about the Vray demo.

Yes, all of this is true, thank You a lot (demo vray helped).
I have rendered in Corona my model but nearly 90% of bought environment (evermotion) is interpreted as a simple box(!). What is the best way to 'swap' all of the plants to be shown as a plant not as a coloured box?

These boxes - are they Vray Proxy objects? You would have to convert them back to geometry or Corona Proxies.

That's what I've achieved [attachment]. Trees are gone 'cause they are without branches.  ;/
Any further help? Please.
