Yes I’ve checked and I had not used any autodesk materials so I didn’t think about it much ...but something’s messed with the viewport background. I checked in the customise UI panel and the background color is set to the default black. But it doesn’t show the same so I don’t know what’s wrong and how to fix it.

I’m trying to convert a scene from vray to corona but I’m getting this warning and upon clicking on “ok” The viewport background suddenly a changes. Please help!
I’m using 3ds max 2020 and corona 5 hf 2 and vray 5

Yes okay I will change the displacement back to default 3.0.
And since I started using corona just a few days ago and this is my first space designed using this , I have used almost all materials from corona material library. I also optimised and instanced most of the polygons so that it doesn’t stress the system much.

I just watched a video on YouTube that suggested going to the Laptop’s power settings and lowering the maximum processor state from 100% to 90%. Any such suggestions / advice ? I’ll be quite grateful.

Ohhhh okay. So is it possible to stress the system less and still use this render engine ? Or how do I optimise the RAM ? I hope there’s some way 🥺 somehow this problem never came up with VRay during IR and also during final renders of 1080px

Thank you for replying
I have attached a screenshot of :
a) The Render setup's System settings.
The image upscaling factor was set to 3.0 by default and I changed that to 1.0

b) Screenshot of task manager during IR. Also please look at the stats of the VFB and do let me know if the IR is slow as someone pointed out that the rays/sec are very less.

Thank you.

Sorry for the insufficient information.
I am attaching a few screenshots

screenshot 1: aften enabling "fast preview denoise during render". Notice how so much geometry misses and is distorted.

next couple of screenshots are : my render settings
IR without "fast preview" enabled ; and
my scene

Also, I had previously rendered the scene in Vray and it was comparatively fast and showed no error of maxed out RAM.
And since I have read that Corona Renderer uses solely the CPU, the interactive render maxes the RAM. But shouldn't there be a way to optimize usage and also get clearer results?

My system specs are:
intel core i7-6700HQ
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M with 4gb dedicated RAM
16GB DDR4 Memory

Hi, so I have recently switched from Vray to Corona and although I love it, Im still confused about a  few things.
Firstly, My interactive render takes a lot of time to render. For ex; it took about 3min for 5 passes and the output is still extremely noisy.
I want to know how I can make the render settings to provide me with quick , denoised renders during IR. I tried to use "fast preview denoise" option but it my image so smooth that even the edges got smoothed out and the geometry made no sense.

Please help me !!:(
