[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Re: not saving multipass effect in the rendersettings

« on: 2016-11-24, 11:30:54 »

Hi,
the multipass has been moved to separate dialog (Corona->Multipass in menu). The old multipass accessible from render settings should not be there anymore - I just forgot to hide it... It will be fixed in RC3.

[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Re: Slow material editor - C4D

« on: 2016-11-01, 13:15:13 »

Hi,

to completely uninstall Corona (on Windows) you should use uninstall option in Programs and features or run uninstaller directly (by default it should be located in C:\Program Files\Corona\). This should remove all versions of C4D plugin installed and also all registry and files located outside C4D folder as long as there is no Max version installed - if there is, it will leave some files and registry records used by Corona for 3ds Max. Plugin for C4D does not use anything that could be left for 3ds max, so uninstalling C4D part should be enough for clean install. Apart from that, it is always good to install Windows updates as I've already seen some similar issues when using non-updated system (although everything required by plugin should be already installed by installer).

As of problem with materials, I know there are some issues that can slow down update of material preview but I couldn't reproduce anything so bad, ie it can take few seconds to update but shouldn't take so long nor freeze C4D while rendering preview. We will try to do something about this in A6 RC2...

This should work in the last daily build - note that there is a dropdown where you can select Object or Instance to get a similar result to your second image.

Actually, it is very similar for C4D :-)

Just add Corona Camera tag to camera (or create camera using Plugins->Corona->Create Camera), check Override projection and select Spherical or Cylindrical.

Hi,
yes, it is planned for A6, although I cannot promise when exactly will A6 be released. As of builds for testers, I hope we will manage to release some version with denoising within a few weeks.

For those who had problems with passes, there was a bug that might cause settings of some passes not to update when you changed the settings (if that happened to you, you needed to restart C4D). This should be fixed in the latest build (released today) together with a lot of other Multipass-related stuff.

[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Where is realtime color mapping

« on: 2016-04-20, 11:33:42 »

If you have active camera (not automatic viewport camera), check "Override camera colormapping" in render settings. Right now, colormapping won't change values set in camera unless it is overriden by global colormapping. I know this is not exactly intuitive behaviour, we will try to improve it in future releases...

« on: 2016-04-20, 11:29:21 »

Hi,
right now list of passes is not exposed anywhere, but I will be doing some changes in A6 in the way Corona handles and stores multipass. There are still some minor details I am yet to decide, but the result should be similar to what you want - Corona Multipass VP will have passes stored in BaseList2D nodes. This change should happen during a week or two - I will let you know when it is done.

Ok, I will check it out. It seems to be gamma-related - can you write your LWF / colorprofile settings? Also, is the result correct when you set Gamma to 2.2 in PV / Filter tab?

As of missing frames in animation, this seems strange as animations are mostly handled directly by C4D (most of Corona-related TR work is because of single-image rendering). Do you have some specific scene where you have problems?

This should be fixed in A5 and A5.1 - it was related to similar problem with perfect sphere.

Sorry this bug remained there for so long - it is fixed in both A5 and A5.1.

To address other parts, colormapping was readded in A5.1 (but was moved from plugin menu directly into menu in picture viewer). As of infinite floor, it is unfortunatelly not supported at this moment (we have it in our feature requests). As of IR, I know it is not much stable at this moment, but we are working on it.

There was some discussion about wheter we should have this dialog or not. The result of discussion was readding dialog in A5.1, but moving it directly to menu in picture viewer.

Hi,
could you send me some more info about what renderings were you doing? I was not abble to reproduce it - I tried to render a lot of various scenes (from very simple scenes to some using 12GB of RAM) and let C4D open for 2 days but once I closed all documents, C4D was taking only 500MB - same amount of RAM it took after closing first scene.

There was a bug which caused TR not to correctly set color profile of rendered image (it was always saved in linear rgb). It should be fixed in A5.1.
