Which batch render plugin you are using?

What version of 3ds Max and Corona you are using?

Are you saving the files locally or on network drive?

Hi,

Thanks for the video and your test.

Can you let me know if the problem is only isolated to Corona bitmaps? while loading other corona assets like luts and Corona proxy are working fine for you?

Is it possible for you to upgrade to Windows 11 or to make sure your windows is fully updated when you are making these tests?

Hardware / Re: Threadripper & Ryzen only builds (3rd Gen starts on page 50)

« Last post by Nejc Kilar on Yesterday at 11:26:44 »

Hi guys,

Got my 7980X machine. it's really is a beast!

Just one thing I noticed is that it is less workable during IR compare to my old machine which is Ryzen 9 5950X. when I say less workable it is difficult to tweak materials, move object and update objects while on IR.
I understand that in IR it uses the whole CPU, but it is just different experience in 5950X. Anyone experience this?

Here's my specs :

CPU: 7980X
MOBO: Gigabyte TRX50 AERO D rev.1.0
RAM: Kingston 256GB 5600MT/s
GPU: ASUS RTX 4060 OC
PSU: ASUS Aura edition 1200W 80+ Gold

Hmm I don't really think there should be much of a difference. Do you think you could disable SMT and give it a try? Wonder if that would help.

Also, kudos on the beastly machine!!

Hello Tom, thanks for explaining. I think I finally understand the structure of this script.

Thanks to you too, Alex!

The instructions on Maxscript website are pretty self explanatory: first select the type of material you want to work on (CoronaLegacyMtl, CoronaPhysicalMtl ...), then select whta materials you want to work on (materials of selected objects, Medit selection ... beware the script doesn't seem to work with SME), and finally, in your case, you want to select "Map - texmapFresnelIor" (if I'm not wrong, please double check) and select "Clear map slot" at the bottom of the script UI so that you will delete all maps plugged into the FresnelIor map slot for the given materials.

Please double check what I say, and save your work before proceeding as this operation is undoable and I could possibly have misunderstood your query.

Nice script! But it's a bit hard to understand how to use it...
Could you show me how to set it up to solve this problem?

[Max] General Discussion / Cosmos Library Missing Materials Categories

« Last post by Mohd Abosido on Yesterday at 01:40:19 »

Hello Everyone,

I've encountered an issue with the Cosmos library in the material section. I noticed that there are significantly fewer material categories compared to the older version. I'm not sure if this is a new update where categories have been removed, or if there's something wrong with my version.

I've updated my Corona to Hotfix 2 and uninstalled and reinstalled Chaos Cosmos in hopes of restoring the full material library, but to no avail. If anyone can help, I would be really grateful.

Thanks!

[C4D] Daily Builds / The asset browser in Corona 12 loads textures slowly

« Last post by CR_love on 2024-06-02, 12:05:33 »

The asset browser loads textures slowly. Randomly importing 2 or 3 book models from the Cosmos browser and importing them into the asset browser, creating a new file and loading them from the asset browser, saving and closing the new file, will result in abnormally slow opening when reopening the new file.

I think he wanted to set the values to 0?

Ah yes you are correct. Ive updated the snippets to reflect this.
