Corona Custom Render Indicator for Corona VFB 2

[Frood]

Written because Corona VFB 2 lacks a native render progress indicator.

Installation: save the script to any scripts/startup directory.

If you want to play around, type "ccri.help()" in the maxscript listener.


Good Luck

Thank you!!

Its very useful
But..... I have seen that when IR reaches max passes, the render stops but the icon keeps moving.

Thanks for the notice, this is/was due to a bug in the CoronaFp interface. It reports that an IR is going on even when interactive_passLimit is reached and the renderer has stopped. No need to say that I have already reported this and other issues regarding wrong data when querying the interface. I added a "manual" check to get around it, hope it works for you as expected now (v0.08 in the first post).


Good Luck

Hi, is there a way to have this also work in interactive mode?

It's often the case where I think...... is this actually doing anything & I say to myself 'where's the smiley face when you need it?' 

Thanks

Hi,

not entirely sure about what you mean. It should work in IR and PR/IterativeR. Or do you mean that you would like to have an indicator in an extended viewport/docked IR session? If so, that's not possible with this script, sorry.


Good Luck

Could you try to uninsttall and reinstall using the commands from the script ( use ccri.help() code in maxlistener to check the codes to do it  )

[Frood]

No need to do so, it was a side effect from that quick fix regarding the Corona interface.

Thanks for the video, now it should. Please use v0.09 (first post). I just forgot to include the case where IR pass limit is set to 0.


Good Luck
