Hi frv,

I TOTALLY AGREE!!! I am a freelance 3D designer & visualiser, work is so sperodic at the moment and being HAMMERED with licences left right and center. I really wish Maxon could do a stripped down version without friggin RS and do it for less, shame on them, they are choking the creative industry.

HI,

Have you tried 'consolidating assets' in the project asset inspector? Click on the path column and look for any assets starting with asset then consolidate to put into your project tex folder. I have tons of corona materials in my asset browser and had proplems opening them up at a later stage. This solves the problem, might not work with Chaos mats but should in theory. John

I was on OSX for most of my life, then switched to Windows, never looked back! More stable, faster, custom. Feel like a prat sticking with Apple for so long...........

Hi Tom,

Thank you for such a swift reply :-). I sent an invite to a friend to test, apparently he needs login details? Is this right? Do I give him my Chaos Cloud logins? Also, can I render all 18 cameras in one take or do I need to do them individually? This is my last questions! Thanks again, John

Hi Tom,

Got a couple of questions, let me know if i'm posting it in the wrong place!

1. My renders are facing the wrong way, backwards. How do I set them to face forward?
2. How do I label hotspots to change over the whole tour? Have changed one view but then have to do this to every view, very time consuming.

Many thanks, John :-)

Tom, HOLY S!!!! Just tried it out with acouple of rough renders... This is so simple to use and will be a good tool to offer to clients. Thank you and have a great weekend :-)

Tom,

This is super interesting as I was outsoursing my virtual hotspot tours, will give this a go... I assume it works similar to 3DVista? Many thanks, John

Hi Forum,

Just had a request to do a book store virtual tour. It's a basic point n click, then look around at the selected points. I read that you can now do this with Chaos/Corona. Can this be outputed as a stand alone project I can send to the client or is it a login thing? They need it for a conference so guessing it needs to be standalone? Never done one before but understand how it works. Any advice and guidance would be super helful, thanks :-) JS

Found out you need to set renderer to standard, did not have to do that before. All my lights are now back in my tab. Would prefer to have Corona Spotlights though :-)...

Hi Forum,

Upgraded to C4D 2025.3 yesterday and can't find the normal 'Legacy' spotlights. Have they been abolished? I know this is more a Maxon question but they are not exactly helpful unless you use RS. I can only see RS spots and they seem to take longer to render. Corona team, will you introduce Corona spotlights in the future? Have a good weekend All :-) John

Hi John_Do,

I did it old skool way, rendered previews, thanks for the reply though :-) John

Hi Forum,

I finally started creating my own C4D assets in the 'Asset Browser'. This might be a question for Maxon but in all fairness, if I mention I'm using Corona they will not answer, so thought best to ask here first... I created a DB of CGaxis City Scene, all converted for Corona, most preview ok apart from two models. I am now creating a asset lib for 3D Kitbash but all models I'm importing are all showing a back preview, they import ok but need a preview to see wht it is? Anyone else had this problem or do I need to contact (un-helpful unless you use Redshift) Maxon? Have a good weekend all :-)
