[C4D] General Discussion / Re: Saving Render previews incrementally to a folder, is it possible?

Tokens is exactly what i am after! however seems like cineversity doesn't like perpetual c4d licenses, seems strange if they only let you download if you have a subscription! I've contacted them, hopefully they will give me CV Tokens to install.

Takes is pretty good as well, not really what i am after but could be useful in the future for other things. thanks for the heads up

[C4D] General Discussion / Saving Render previews incrementally to a folder, is it possible?

« on: 2020-12-04, 10:12:39 »

Im creating a content library of models for our studio and just wondering if there is a quick way of saving renders, so i dont have to manually change the names

I'm looking to

Place object in a studio scene,
Hit render, for it to save an output
Delete object
Place next object
Hit render, then for it to save next output incrementally.


Theres an option in render queue to not overwrite saved render files, but i can't see something similar within the render settings.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Render limit set but still rendering past limit

« on: 2020-11-17, 23:38:14 »

Just had this issue again, same set of scenes.

It could just be something in the scene causing the issue, however i did notice that when opening a queued scene, i noticed that i had all Render setups highlighted? whether this causes the issue if it is saved like this im not sure. could be the root of it. Will see how the renders go tonight now they have been saved with only one selected.

I will check over it, but it did work the second time and finished rendering at around 3 hours. That was after pressing stop and restarting the render in the render queue from the image i uploaded to the topic.

Not sure why it did it, it was set to noise level 3% and a time limit of 05:30:00. Yet went on for 08:30:00



Maybe it just got a little confused, It's probably too hard to pin point the issue and in all honesty, probably not worth your time as i've used Corona for a long time and never had the issue before! Just thought it may have been something that cropped up in the latest build.

Unfortunately i wont be able to share this one, or not for a long time anyway.

Keep up the great work team!

So i've set up a bunch of stills for a client over the weekend. These are all set for 05:30 hours limit due to the time available over the weekend and this has been going for 08:30 hours so far?

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: CORONA LAYERED MATERIAL IN CONTENT BROWSER ISSUE/BUG?

« on: 2020-11-04, 23:59:34 »

Another way of solving this is to apply a layered material to a cube or mesh in a Null, and also apply any reference materials to the Null that that Layered material references. Then save the null to the content browser.


Null - Reference materials
Cube as child of Null - Layered material

Any update on this one, it's a horrible bug !

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Possible Bug - Volumetric Material on a Cube using inside material Viewport Sel

« on: 2020-10-23, 14:59:29 »

Hi again, I've attached a mockup scene of my issue.

I have a cube that encapsulates the shot and use a fog material to create a low lying fog which has two cylinders in it (Representing some general objects, say people)

I render the shot off (generally with these people hidden to camera but casting shadows etc) then rerender a viewport selection (i.e. the cylinders) so that i can comp them in photoshop to add motionblur.

Issue is, when you viewport select the cylinders, they don't render, it'll just render black as if nothing is selected.

i think it's the interference of the box. it's visibility to the camera is maybe in the way.

Anyway if you need any guidance let me know

[C4D] Feature Requests / Render onto Last

« on: 2020-10-23, 14:32:57 »

I've only just found the resume render button from the drop down of render and slapped myself. Very useful.

I was then thinking how about a render onto last feature. Sometimes im happy with the quality overall, but get some noise in places (some reflective materials, shadows etc). How about a render on to last button, which allows you to change settings (i.e. chose viewport selection) then give certain objects a bit of a boost, without losing the overall render?

[C4D] Feature Requests / Re: please use 100% detail as default for inter active viewport !?

« on: 2020-10-23, 14:30:41 »

This really does depend on scene does it not? 100% may be good for small sized scenes, but complicated scenes it would likely crash. You click interactive render by accident and your scene crashes, doesn't sound too fun!

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Possible Bug - Volumetric Material on a Cube using inside material Viewport Sel

« on: 2020-10-21, 11:00:59 »

Came across this after rendering an image for a client. I like to slightly motion blur my people in situations, set off a render in queue last night with the introduction of some volumetric fog to my scene.

If the Volumetric object material is on a mesh which covers your selection, it doesn't render the selection.

Maybe it's just this way but thought i'd bring it up. I can set up a small scene if you aren't able to replicate it later on to show what i mean

What's selected as the object? the forest pack or the plane? Not sure if it can be done on a forest pack object.

[C4D] Bug Reporting / Possible Bug - Large Lag When switching material viewport preview size

« on: 2020-09-18, 11:40:06 »

I'm having some issues sometimes with Material viewport preview size since updating.

When you switch from a lower size to a higher dimension it can freeze for 10-15 seconds or more and lags for a couple minutes before the viewport is useable again. It happens on Procedural and bitmapped materials.

Here's a boring video to watch of what i mean :P. I'll leave it to you to discuss. I can use 512x512 for now with about a second lag
