Thanks for updating the roadmap guys. Nice to see new PBR material there. Is the list closed tho ? The timespan for v6 seems quite wide, so is there still a chance that you will rework tonemapping in this release aswell ?

Regarding roadmap. When can we expect to see the features that will be added in v6 ?

Hi,

Would both of you be able to send me over a scene where this is happening? So far in my tests this seems to be working as expected.

Instructions on how to send us a scene are in my signiture.

Thanks,

Rowan

Just tested a few scenes and the problem no longer exists. Slaves are detected fine on Corona 5 RC2.
We started adding them manually when we first encountered the problem and continued to do so up until now because we lacked time to troubleshoot.
Will remember to check every scene for the problem. If we find any where the problem persists we will send it over to you guys for investigation.

@bluebox and @aaouviz,

Am I correct in assuming that you are both running Windows 7?

Thanks,

Rowan

Correct. Both master PC and slaves running win 7.

You're right... this does seem to work fine. Thanks (again!)

Glad I could help :)

Hi since updating to RC2 I cannot use DR any more. The slave isn't found by the master PC when searching in the DR dialogue settings...

(I updated to RC2 but had loading issues, so I also did a clean install and updated windows 7, as mentioned above).

Any ideas how to fix this?

This happened to us in Corona 4 as far as I remember. Although searching for slaves did not work, they rendered fine if you just added their names manually before rendering.

We managed to solve the problem.
Turned out that you need to have your Windows 7 updated.

Thing is that this crappy MS installer won't install a certain update if you havent installed the one preceding it. It will just tell you that your computer is not eligible for the certain update you are trying to install. This might lead to an assumption that the machine is up to date.

If you strugle with the problem and you don't have any old obsolete files lingering on your drive install the following in the following order nad you'll be fine:
-Service Pack 1
-KB3020369
-KB947821
-KB3125574

Good job on the release guys. RAM savings are noticeable, overall feeling is more responsive and although not properly benchmarked we are under an impression that the scenes render faster.

Hi,

Which version of windows are you using? Could you ensure it is up to date?

Secondly did you already submit a support ticket?

Thanks,

Rowan

Hey there Rowan,
system is Win 7 Professional SP1
We just reported the issue via Helpdesk link provided by Maru. Don't have the ticket number - we overlooked that one has to register first to be able to check the ticket status.

Thanks for getting back Marcin.
I purged all Corona files using Comodo programs manager (monitors what files are installed and where during program installation) to make sure nothing is left, so no registry entries etc. were left.
Then I did a clean install of RC5. Installer reported that the installation was successful but the problem remained. The exact same error on max open pops up and Corona does not work.

I tried installing it manually but to no success.

Any idea what else I could try ?

Unable to install latest daily. Have the exact same problem as in post #176

This happens if you still have old Corona/RenderLegion/ChaosCz DLLs in your max root directory. The latest daily installer should fix this. You can also delete them manually (all Legion*.dll and Corona*.dll, and ScatterCore.dll).

No idea what I should remove. Cant find any of the files you mention in my max root.

How do I proceed ?

Any help on this issue ?
