[C4D] I need help! / Re: Objects disappearing!

I’m surprised it even runs on Big Sur to be honest!

Ah, yes, you are right. It is probably compatible enough to have it running at least, but not with full functionality. Maybe adding a Corona material internally switches to Skeleton mode, who knows.

My last idea would be to switch on this option (bottom of the screenshot) in the prefs, it usually is not a good idea to use it but maybe it actually helps in this case.

Tried that preferences selection, however objects have still vanished. I might try to update my operating system to Monterey and see how I go then. Thanks!

Ok, thanks for confirming. I would suggest contacting MAXON support if it's happening without Corona being used.

Thanks for your help too. I use C4D all the time, and the objects only disappear when I use Corona unfortunately. I'll try Maxon though.

Does the same thing happen if switching to the standard renderer?

Yes, objects not visible in Viewport... However render fine in standard renderer as well as IR.

Hi,

I'm wondering if this might be related to a layout you are in. Can you try changing to something else such as ''Standard'' etc to see if that helps?


If it does, you should then save that layout as the start up default.

Thanks, tried that just now. Cone disappears in Viewport... However renders fine in IR.

Works perfect when I render your scene! Both in C4D native renderer and Corona IR.
Only issue is that the Cone disappears after 1 second when the project opens.
Screenshots attached...

Cheers for the help so far guys.
I'm using R16.050 (Build RB131856).
I just did up a quick scene for the screenshot, still no object even when I move the light around the scene.
Every material I apply causes the cone to disappear.
I have tried display settings... Skeleton is off. Gouraud Shading is on.
Original scene attached...

Also attached another screenshot. This time using a C4D native light. Different Corona material (metal) applied. Object gone from Viewport but does come up in the IR.

Thanks for the prompt responses!
I'm using an older version of C4D... R16. Corona is the first renderer that I can use (can't even install other renderers for R16). Really hoping I can use it for my work.

So the object disappears / is deleted as soon as I apply a Corona material. Preceding any lights or cameras.

When I add a Corona light, try to render in IR... still nothing.

Attached are some screenshots of what is going on, I can do a more detailed description / video if necessary. But to sum it up... Object is deleted in Viewport AND IR when material applied.

Hey guys, new in here and stoked to be learning Corona.
Wondering if I could get some help please...
When I set up a scene in C4D with basic Corona lights and a Corona material to an object, they literally disappear when I turn on 'interactive rendering.'
I can only get the objects back once I remove the Corona lights and materials.

Thanks in advance!
