mayaToCorona 0.47

[RickToxik]

Hi Haggi,

  wow the ipr is pretty cool!  I think it's the most important feature of a renderer in maya : )

- I still can't use the round corner even after you say you have updated it, do I have the latest version of 0.47?  (downloaded today)
- I have crashes if I choose corona as the renderer of the material viewer in the 2016 hypershade
- I have crashes if I try to plug a texture in the area light color slot, they are probably unsupported I guess

It's cool to be able to load .hdr directly in maya.  Good work!!!  I think we will be soon at the point where corona could be tested in production on small projects.

Thanks for reporting. Indeed, the round corner should work again and 0.47 is the latest one.

Hello Haggy!
My name is Sultan, I am a student from Kazakhstan. I have sent requests to your email, but didn't get a respond yet. Please, could you be so kind to check it?
I have been studying 3ds max and maya for a year by myself and I find corona renderer very convenient  renderer to use.
I would love to be able to have an opportunity to work with corona on maya and be your beta tester.
Currently I am doing a project, so be sure, I will keep posting a feedback.

Sincerely,
Sultan

Hi! Where i can download materials like there is on resource page, for maya? ive downloaded but its for 3ds max

[schelkov]

common question about corona. Which of the utilities are work in corona?

[haggi]

Corona shader presets for 3dsmax do not work for maya, sorry. If you want to know which shaders work, please have a look at the shaderDefinitions.txt in the mayaToCorona resources directory. There are all supported shaders defined inclusive their inputs and outputs.

in a scene i have 1.5 million poligons and it's very slow rendering, how i can speed it up? becouse in 3dsmax it's fine.

[haggi]

Do you use OSL file textures, if yes try to turn on the "No OSL" option in the corona section of the file texture node.

When it will be released... We eagerly await... Please least a few screenshots :)

[schelkov]

i do my test, how i can decrease a noise? p.s thanks for "no OSL" it's works!

[haggi]

When it will be released... We eagerly await... Please least a few screenshots :)

What do you mean exactly?

[metken345]

corona renderer for maya when it will be ready for sale?

[haggi]

It will still take some time, there is no release date.

[schelkov]

How i can replace vray mat (mentalray) to corona materials quickly?

[haggi]

There is no builtin material conversion support yet.
