Corona 7 materials to Legacy

[J-Tetris]

Hi there

Is it possible to convert all the materials in a scene ive been working on in Corona 7 to the Corona legacy material ?
Even if it compromises the look of the material , is there a way to do it ?
If so , how to ?

Thanks in advance!

Only manually, one by one. There's no tool for automatic convertion of physical materials to the legacy ones and there won't be, at least not official.

oh wow

So manually means , create a legacy material and copy the attributes across one at a time ?

what about sending to a render farm and they still on corona 6 ?

To add to this , what about if I have models for sale on 3dsky or similar , but now using corona 7 , people will not be able to use my new models if they still on 6 ...

It was always like that. If you prepare your work in newer version of Corona, you have no guarantees that it will work, or even open in older versions and especially that's true when you depend on render farms. Nothing has changed in this regard.
