Haha, we also urgently need the animation camera in MAX to synchronize with Chaos Vantage. In the early stage of animation production, MAX needs to output the path preview of the animation to the customer for confirmation of the script. The previous process used to be direct output in MAX. Currently, we are transitioning to a Vray scene and then outputting it through Chaos Vantage. This way, we can visually see the material of the light and the model in the path preview. Originally, we thought that Corona12 could directly use Chaos Vantage
So you are working in Corona for the finals but doing a early-process scene convert to VRay in order to get initial approval on your scenes through Vantage? And then I assume you bake finals in Corona still? I've contemplated that workflow, wonder how efficient it is for you...?
Yes, in the end, we still used Corona to produce the output. Using Vantage actually increased the customer experience, and the GPU rendered effect is always better than the preview effect generated in 3dmax. The efficiency issue you mentioned happened to have a case today. The client wants us to test the performance of the real sun position in the animation and compare it with the animation sample of the sun position that prioritizes visual effects to see which one to choose. I used Vantage and quickly produced two 90 second sample outputs in about half an hour, which were sent to the customer. If Corona can directly connect to Vantage in real-time and maintain consistent results in the future, it will greatly save us rendering time and costs
By the way, I am using a translation software, and some sentences may not be translated accurately. Please forgive me
