[C4D] Resolved Bugs / Re: Beta noticeably slower than Alpha

So I managed to fix it in a very crude way. I cleaned up the old file as much as I could and the VFB still didn't work. Crashed C4D a couple of times so I lost my patience and opened a new "scene" in a new folder. I copied parts of the old scene group by group testing the VFB after every pasted group and saving the scene after it tested ok.
I still can't identify what was causing the problem exactly, but pasting everything into a new file worked for me so if anyone ever has this problem try fixing it like this.

Thank you for your help and for the tips.
LOL...I know the hierarchy's a mess, sorry about that. It's kind of currently a patched up model that needs cleaning up. I'm also aware of some of the issues with materials that you've mentioned (like the blinds). They've been removed when I was clearing out all the Corona materials.

I tried changing the render settings as you suggested but it didn't really fix the issue that I was having with this particular model. Interactive rendering still doesn't work. It takes forever to start up and then when it does it keeps switching from parsing to Sec.GI or doesn't do anything at all. It never actually starts doing the passes. Now, obviously the model itself works fine on your computer so it has to be something on my end. I've used this version of Corona on new models and it worked fine. So I was wondering if you have any idea what might be causing this issue? Maybe some temporary files somewhere that are clashing with the new version or some type of cache that needs to be cleared?

Yeah, I understand now that scene doesn't mean picture.
I had problems with the uploader even though the file's 111MB so I uploaded it to the Dropbox alternative.

Yeah you should've clarified what "scene" means because I'm not familiar with the lingo.

Here's one of the scenes from Render View

The problem with VFB still presists. I've changed all the materials to Corona materials.
It's not the Beta itself, because I've used it on other 3D models that were created from scratch with the Beta version and it worked fine.
Now the only way to get the preview is to render in the Render View  inside C4D.

Is there some cache to clear or something to fix this?

I've attached the Render View preview of one of the scenes

Ok, I'll try replacing everything and see if it works. Thank you for the advice ;)
Hope it works.

I just installed the Beta version and I have been struggling the whole morning to get the rendering going again.
I kept the same setting as Alpha version. Nothing extreme, because I was currently just rendering fast previews. On Alpha, I'd get the preview within a second or two.
With Beta I first had the problem of everything rendering black until I realized that C4D Sky element doesn't work anymore so I replaced it with COrona Sky.
Started interactive preview again and got a super pixelized preview that didn't change for 20min and then C4D crashed.
I have noticed that it keeps switching between Parsing scene and Computing sec. GI, it never actually starts going through Passes.
I'm not really sure how to fix it?
