Corona for Cinema 4D Beta 1 daily build

[Rhodesy]

Thanks for the update Nikola. Assuming you manage to catch all the bugs you know about and there are no new ones. Do you anticipate this will be a fully featured release for DR? I gave it a try ages ago but have steered clear since as I just couldnt take the risk with errors.

Does it support multiple nodes working on a single image?

If so can we use the VFB with it to adjust tone mapping on the fly?

Cheers

The devs are aware of this already, unfortunately all available builds (latest daily and A6.4) are affected. So unless you're having an installer of a slightly older build on your hdd, there's no workaround right now.

Hi All,

I would like to apologize for the daily build delay. Implementation of saving the render took a whole last week because Cinema does saving in the local render on its own, but in TeamRender we must reimplement whole saving logic ourselves for some reason. So it is not rocket science, but it is very time-consuming to test implement and check all possible combinations of saving options, but we are developers so it is our job and I don't want to make excuses. Fortunately, it is ready. Today I am fixing some bugs in edge cases which I found during testing of Teamrender and tomorrow I would like to test and to fix rendering of animations in Teamrender. This should be enough to release the next daily build.

Thanks for letting us know you're progressing from week to week. Really looking forward to your next build!

Adding a multi-pass (compositing tag) in scene, at render command c4d quits.

Please check this also in new beta... if possible.

Thanks.

Hi and sorry about that! We know about this issue and our IT guy is working on it! It should be fixed soon. We'll let you know when the C4D activation page is back online.

Hey Matt!

We understand that you are a bit disappointed with the recent lack of daily builds in the C4D plugin, but rest assured that we're working hard on making the interactive functional by the deadline that we set. We managed to overcome the biggest hurdle and that is the C4D part of the IR and currently are working on updating the Corona side - scene data, lights, etc... This means that we already have a semi-functional prototype, which restarts the renderer every time you make a change in the IR but of course we want it to only update the changed objects. I think that the September 15th deadline is pretty realistic for a first release candidate.

Believe me that we would love to give you guys something to play with ASAP, but please look at it this way - if there's too many bugs and if it does not work the way the final version is planned to, many people would only be disappointed and we don't want that. We rather want to give you something more decent, which in turn also helps us get more constructive criticism.

Hello Cestmir. Sounds great! Thanks!

[mrittman]

Thanks for the update houska :) That makes me feel a lot better. I just have high hopes for Corona, unlike a lot of other software out there right now. Really looking forward to the rebuilt material system. Thanks again!
