[Max] Resolved Bugs / Re: [feedback] Render nodes don't start and max process remains idle in background

With the latest build mentioned, the nodes start correctly and it renders well ...

Thanks ...

Why should we always use a camera view instead of a perspective view when rendering ?

using a perspective view gives me incorrect results.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / [feedback] Render nodes don't start and max process remains idle in background

« on: 2017-03-31, 20:53:55 »

Bug description : Render nodes don't start and max process remains idle in background.

When a render starts in the host, all nodes start loading max and it goes well until the script editor window appears with highlight on line 9

"     region = viewport.getRegionRect (viewport.activeViewport);"

then the script window disappears and max process remains idle, no rendering happens in nodes.

as a test, I modified the file "post.ms" to

Code: [Select]


global wasCancelled = false;
do (
  loadMaxFile (CoronaRenderer.CoronaFp.getSceneFilename()) quiet:true;
  global cam = getNodeByName(CoronaRenderer.CoronaFp.getSlaveCamera());
  global rtype = getRenderType();
  if (cam == undefined) then
    render cancelled:&wasCancelled frame:(CoronaRenderer.CoronaFp.getSlaveFrame()) vfb:off renderType:rtype; else
    render cancelled:&wasCancelled frame:(CoronaRenderer.CoronaFp.getSlaveFrame()) vfb:off camera:cam renderType:rtype;
  loadMaxFile "C:/Users/John/AppData/Local/CoronaRenderer/DrData/corona_dr.max" quiet:true;
  render vfb:false;
) while wasCancelled == false


and the problem was solved when the nodes started max !

of course this file is over-written each time the DR starts so it's not a real solution.

This "DADispatcherService.exe" is located inside max root.

long time ago and by trial and error, I found that disabling it will make vray distributed rendering more stable.

but there was one slave where I didn't disable it, and it was the node that caused problems with the new corona DR !

I disabled it on that node and now Corona DR works fine !

Damn Autodesk !

3 hours of debugging to find out that "DADispatcherService.exe" was behind the problem !

I simply renamed it to "_DADispatcherService.exe" and now max starts normally.

The installation process went smoothly, nothing unusual.

The log usually contains a line saying

"3dsmax failed to start"

I tired to diagnose the reason but no success !

Opps, sorry it looks like I forgot to toggle the "denoise" this render element".

It is working fine.

but the new bug I found was related to the new DR.

on some nodes it keeps trying to start 3dsmax but a maxscript window with title "post.ms" appears for 2 or 3 seconds then

max closes and tries to start again, infinite loop !

I triple checked that all nodes are identical in configuration and etc ...

any more information I can provide ?

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Denoising not working if we add a light mixer render element ..

« on: 2017-01-11, 23:39:23 »

Corona version :

Corona version: 1.6 DailyBuild Jan 11 2017
Full-speed, Non-debug, MaxSDK 2016
Build timestamp: Jan 11 2017 21:07:14
Defines: Wide RGB

Description : The denoising feature doesn't remove the noise if there is any "light mixer" element in the render elements.

If I disable the light mixer element and render the scene again, the denoising becomes effective.

Corona version

Corona version: 1.6 DailyBuild Dec 13 2016
Full-speed, Non-debug, MaxSDK 2016
Build timestamp: Dec 13 2016 01:11:42
Defines: Wide RGB


A message box appears with the text "STOP@..\..\CoronaCore\misc\adaptivityDenoising\utils\Input.cpp(46)" ...
then max crashes.

To reproduce the bug :

1 - Create any scene
2 - Don't change the "Denoising Mode", keep it as "None"
3 - Click Render
4 - During the render process, change "Denoising " to "Full denoising"
5 - Click "Stop" in Corona VFB.

[Max] Resolved Bugs / Tone mapping not working unless values are changed.

« on: 2016-10-06, 08:24:21 »

1 - Create a scene .
2 - Hit render
3 - Try to change between "Use simple exposure" and "Basic photographic settings"

The rendered image won't change until you change one of the values in a control.

one of the controls in the green area should be changed during render to apply the new setting.
