Hello Everyone,
I hope this message finds everyone well. From someone who comes from Vray, I have come across a few issues -
1) The same scene with a lot of sculpted, triangulated meshes which are further proxied to keep the scene handling easy , without any materials takes far longer to even start or show any render progress with CORONA, whereas Vray does it with pure ease.
2) There are times when CPU does not get fully utilized (stays onto 5 or 10 percent) for at least the first 5 - 6 passes (With each pass taking about 15 minutes)
3) Large architectural scenes, rather complex scenes despite xref's , proxies and material optimizations take anywhere between 15 minutes to half an hour to show the first pass.
4) Nvidia denoiser showing incompatibility or version mismatch errors despite the version being the same as it asks me to upgrade to.
5)Can we possibly see a texture optimization integration (since the plugin texture proxy has certain issues carrying it out effectively) wherein depending upon the textures proximity to the camera a temporary folder is chosen for swapping out textures (LOD) which is probably optimized with a button in the corona scene converter.
6) I genuinely feel the suppport for Vray fur is something which will be highly appreciated.
Lastly, I really do enjoy your product , like really really love what you guys do. So there are only these 6 things that am a bit worried about rest is superb.
P.S. - My specs - 2990WX threadripper | 96 GB RAM | NVDIA GTX 1070 & SSD'd for C drive and active projects.
