I need help / Note: further colors/maps are accessible via maxscript

« on: 2020-05-21, 20:28:56 »

I'll be the first to ask:

"Note: further colors/maps are accessible via maxscript"

This shows up in CoronaMultiMap. I went to an overkill of 33 slots and all loaded fine but I can't edit the frequency parameter past 24 in the slate editor.

By the way this for a leaf map from megascans it has 33 leaves in a single map.

I need help / DOF and Chromatic Abberation on backplate

« on: 2019-12-06, 05:22:14 »

Hi Corona Team,

I would like to add depth of field and chromatic aberration to the camera to match more or less the photographic effect of the backplate. Currently, If I were to add these effects on the camera it gets pre-multiplied on the backplate. I know I can solve this in post, but my question is directed in achieving this in the VFB.

Can we have an option to ignore DOF and Bokeh on the backplate. Or is it possible to do this now?

In the latest releases of corona is it still necessary to disable denoising when saving/creating a UHD file?

Thank you. -Alex

I need help / Bezier Float Controller for CoronaBitmap

« on: 2019-11-10, 23:37:24 »

Hi Corona Team,

I would like to spin my HDRI using a bezier controller. Does the team know why I'm not able to target the ROTATE (DEGREES): ENVIRONMENT spinner in corona or the U: OFFSET in 3dsmax?
I know it's possible with the regular bitmap loader I am just wondering why the controller is not the same in CoronaBitmap.
Thank you - Alex

Feature requests / Volume to optimize rendering speed

« on: 2019-09-25, 21:41:13 »

Hi Corona Team,

How about a volume or box that can wrap around the area where the user wants to concentrate high quality render settings and GI bounces and anything outside the box can be low priority.

Feature requests / UHD Cache Render Button.

« on: 2019-09-24, 20:33:59 »

Can you add a button that automatically creates a UHD cache. The action of the button could perform setting the job to single frame or every other frame, remove all denoisers, ignore save as output in the common panel, and finally save the UHD to a desired location.

Or better yet, if you make an animation and submit it to Backburner it should automatically make one.

I need help / Unsuccessful Install

« on: 2019-06-13, 18:39:13 »

I am not sure what the problem is here. I been trying to work and troubleshoot it at the same time.

1. I tried running the exe as admin.
2. I tried going to windows and uninstall and install the exe again.
3. On another try I tried Uninstalling Corona and manually deleting all corona folders and installing them again.
4. Tried restarting.

Maybe it keeps skipping and doesn't repair the folder.

Hi Corona Dev Team,

Is it possible to get a function to conveniently save user's materials here. See Picture. Have a great day!

Scenerio: I have a 2 physical core machine.

Is it possible to make the machine behave and be recognized as two VM machines independently when a user logs off the workstation?

General Discussion / PARSING SCENE: What can I do to avoid it?

« on: 2018-08-28, 22:37:02 »

First off I have 128gb of RAM, so RAM is not the issue.

In the animation of frames "Parsing scene" can significantly reduce your render performance. Is there anyway to avoid this??

The scene is somewhat large but not that heavy. I have some forestpack, corona proxy and most materials are simple JPG's, displacement is disabled.

Sorry I can show a picture because, its for an architectural competition.

Feature requests / Can I get a proxy preview?

« on: 2018-04-12, 19:23:34 »

Ok...Scenes are getting much larger and more complicated. Everyone relies heavily on proxies (well pretty much for the last decade). Its annoying when there's many proxies in the file and start forgetting what things actually are and look like.

Can you guys gives us viewport preview? Perhaps a non-renderable Jpg plane??

MR used to have a preview in the modify rollout, it helped some, but that was more than a decade ago, I am sure we can innovate something light years better.

Resolved feature requests / VFB: size for IR, measuring pixels, saving post and lightmix

« on: 2017-07-01, 23:22:37 »

With the upmost respect...


1. Force interactive VFB to a user specificied size, its annoying when it jumps up to random sizes and hard to control when its renderings because of the CPU resources.
2. Apply a way to measure pixels in the VFB so if you want to do a blow up of a section and know the size.
3.Save all parameters in VFB POST and LIGHTMIX

Resolved bugs / Direct Visibility Overide is affected by Exposure Value bg_override_directVisibi

« on: 2016-06-19, 21:03:17 »

Hi, Corona

I assume the purpose of this radio button is for the artist to input a "post process" background, no? If that is the case, the background should not be affected by exposure, it should show up the way it natively appears.

Perhaps is not the proper use. Let me know. Much thanks!
