[Max] Previews (Daily Builds) / Re: Are you still using the old VFB?

« on: 2025-08-23, 16:21:45 »

V1 is better, i think many people will choose v1 if they would know how to change it, hidden settings not very friendly for users who like corona for user-friendly UI. I Don't know how you could choose it by default it have many problems with dark theme for example in windows, and hard to navigate and read without lines on plain dark background.

[Max] I need help! / sRGB image in Direct visiblility overide

« on: 2025-04-29, 14:11:45 »

Recently switch to 3ds max 2025 and struggling with color management.
My question, how to make image in frame buffer not effected by 3ds max AcescCG tone mapping? Before i used Corona tonemap control node for that.
I am able to make material editor and viewport to show proper image but not for rendering.
Thanks

[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Corona 13 Color management problem

The same in corona 12 (VFB1.0) with max2025
It looks like bug to me

Hi,

Thanks for sharing the screenshots. I tried to reproduce the issue on my end using Corona 12 update 2 and Max 2025, but I wasn’t able to see the same problem.

Can you please raise a support ticket here:
https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

While creating the ticket, kindly include:

• Your scene file (or a simplified version of your file where the issue happens)
• Steps we can follow to reproduce the problem on our end

It looks like problem solved with restarting 3ds max, as changing VFB requires restart, maybe adding notification about that would be handy for other people.
Cheers

[Max] Bug Reporting / Re: Corona Bitmap Color space/RGB primaries not working properly

« on: 2025-04-26, 20:31:22 »

Is it normal what RGB primaries at creating Corona Bitmap is Custom and i have to always change to auto? corona 12.2, max25

Hi,

Yes, Corona follows the rules set in 3ds Max color management.
If Auto and the custom (whichever primaries it comes with) give different results, please show an example to understand the case better.

3ds max color management is by default(AcesCG), if i drag and drop textures (jpg etc) it's fine with native bitmap, if i adding corona bitmap it always RGB primaries set to custom(sRGB) and have wrong colors. Auto mode telling color space is sRGB and looks fine.
If 3ds max set to gamma color management, corona bitmap loading right linear sRGB in RGB primaries.
How to set to Auto by default?

[Max] Resolved Feature Requests / Re: CoronaDisplacementMod to Mesh

« on: 2021-10-20, 11:25:05 »

we will fix the bug, but we will not add a separate option to do this, the displacement is meant to be render time-only, not for modelling

Then how to use third party terrain generators they can give height map, vegetation map, even river map, but how to make scattering whit this maps? In this point we need to make into mesh for distribution because even bitmap\CoronaBitmap\displace modifier they all work differently and cannot be used in making height mesh for scattering

You didn't this maybe it because won't work on old max versions? On 2020 it didn't work )

By the way you can drag root just on node not only in root slot if you hard to aim on small zoom level for example menu will appear to choose slot


looks like your gif not working even after downloading.
you need to change forum engine already and attach videos =)
