[Max] I need help! / Similar things to vray?

« on: 2014-10-10, 11:22:23 »

Hello guys,

Thanks for the recent help. Its been very helpful.

Since i am starting working with Corona still have a lot of doubts.
Hope you can clearify me on this.

Is there anything similiar to VrayExtraTex in Corona?
Is there anything similiar to Vray Enviroment Fog in Corona (not Z-depth map)?

Cheers and thanks in advance.

[Max] Resolved Feature Requests / Better blend features and some blend issues found

« on: 2014-10-09, 15:30:15 »

I have a blend material inside another blend material which is also inside a third blend. So its kinda blend -> blend -> blend.

At this last and third level, all maps of all materials just mysteriously disappear from the viewport.

It would be great if Corona had something similar to VrayBlendMaterial where we can see all Coat materials in the same dialog box, and each coat material can have its own mask.
Having to do this blend + blend + blend thing to go for some advanced materials is not ideal imho.

[Max] I need help! / Distributed rendering crashs

« on: 2014-10-09, 13:09:18 »

Hi all,

Loving Corona and really thinking about making it first engine choice BUT i really need DR to be working.

Connected one of my slave machines to the workstation via DR box LAN option in the render setup. Slave ping appeared correctly because i started DRserver.exe in the same slave machine. So far so good.

Problem is when i start rendering.
It starts normally, in the DR tab says slave is connected. OK.
At around phase 6 of the render, a message appears and all stops suddenly. (shown in image attached)
Also attach DRserver dialog box.

Please help!

PS. Not using backburner, vray DR didnt needed it. Don´t really want to use it tbh.
To have Corona DR working do i really need to have backburner running?

[Max] I need help! / Displace not working in Blend

« on: 2014-10-06, 16:31:39 »

Hello,

Just recently decided to give Corona a try.

Displace works great and fast in Corona Mtl.
Decided to copy that material into a blend material but displace is ignored now.
Even if i use mix amount 100 for the corona mtl that has displace, it doesnt appear.

Anyone know what we are doing wrong?

Cheers
