No plans at the moment, sorry. The concept is that if you want real-time rendering, including raytracing, the ability to export to Vantage which is in the upcoming Corona 12 is the way to go ;) Thanks! Tom

Already in the Corona 12 daily builds (forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=41877.msg224093#msg224093 ), so will be out in Corona 12 (which is due next week ;) ). Thanks! Tom

@@ChaosCorona wow! this is really AWESOME!!! Thank you for always responding to questions and clarifying things

You are welcome! We try to respond to every question (but sometimes it may take us a few days or a week lol, but we try to get there in the end!). Thanks! Tom

@@ChaosCorona Hello Guys , I'd like to know if Corona 12 for C4D will be compatible with Vantage too! i heard the news for max, and we'll a bit jealous round here LOL . Have a fantastic day and thanks for your work.

@@adventie Hello! Indeed the C4D version of Corona will also support exporting to Vantage much like the 3ds Max version does. In fact the feature is already available in the daily & RC builds. Have a nice day! Nejc

It's an English accent, more specifically a variation Jake refers to as "refined gentleman" :) Tom

@@ChaosCorona oh - thanks - some of his word pronunciation are subtle in my ear - I'll get used to it later

As a note you can also set an autosave while rendering, which will save every so often during a long render, just in case there's a power outage or similar. This can also save some hardship! Tom

Howdy! As is typically the case with simulations the parameters will depend heavily on the actual simulation you're working with. Still, we'd like to help so we are wondering which specific parameters are you asking about? Nejc

@@ChaosCorona Thank you very much, but I solved my problem

@@serpico93800 Glad to hear that! Nejc

If you could define what needs improving about it, we could see about adding that to our plans for future changes - but a generic comment like this gives us nothing to go on :) The correct channel for sending in feature requests and change suggestionsthat, so that it reaches the right team, is through a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new . Thanks! Tom

@@ChaosCorona Yes, make it more like Forest Pro. At least ad a paint ability. At least that.

@@AndreiTheBadger Paint ability is being added in Corona 12 :) We welcome your feedback on it once it is released, as we would like to hear from users on any other improvements to it in future versions. Thanks! Tom

@@ChaosCorona When is Corona 12 coming out ?

@@ChaosCorona Also clusters. Please add a cluster option.

You'd have to define what needs improving about it, before we can say whether there are plans to do those changes :) And the correct channel for that, so that it reaches the right team, is through a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new . Thanks! Tom

@@ChaosCorona IT LOOKS LIKE SHIT. IT HAS NOTHING IN COMMON WITH THE ACES COLOR SPACE. The darks are to dark, yes i know to use tone curve or how its called. but its still shit. Even the the others filmic and reinherd look like shit when used. THIS RENDERER IT SO BEHIND.

@@AndreiTheBadger Yes, it has nothing to do with the ACES color space, as that had to be supported within the native 3D applications (which it is now with the latest versions of Max and C4D, so support for that is coming in Corona 12). It is just the "sweetener curve" used, so that people can apply it to their images if they like it. Given that this is not ACES color space, are there any curve and highlight adjustments that you would point to as being more useful, e.g. ones in other engines? Thanks! Tom

Sorry, I don't understand the question - can you share more details? Thanks! Tom

Oh no, normal maps are very much wanted, if you have them :) You can make an argument that normal maps contain more information in them so the bump effect can look more detailed - although it obviously depends on the quality of the normal map in question. Normal maps are supposed to be loaded into the bump slot of your material BUT before you plug it in there you should put the Corona Normal shader in between. So the order should look like this: Normal map bitmap -> Corona Normal shader -> Bump slot in the Physical MTL. Hope that helps! Nejc

@@ChaosCorona Thanks a lot! Very usefull :D

Hello! Unfortunately we can't share the scene files because of all the 3rd party assets that are in this scene. We will keep this in mind for future endeavors though :) Nejc

The button itself does not, but there is an autosave feature that can be enabled and set in the Systems dialog, see docs.chaos.com/display/CRMAX/System+Tab . It doesn't save every pass, but every time period that you define - hope this helps! Tom

Should be working fine - if it isn't working, it's probably not because of the animation. Best bet is to send in a ticket with details on what doesn't work, what the scene set up is like (or the scene itself), example renders showing what you are getting with a good description of what you would expect, and of course the ever-important info of which version of Corona and version of DCC - support.chaos.com/requests/new . Thanks! Tom

Hi! Thanks for the feedback! Some of that would be outside our scope - we don't aim to tackle modeling at all, since that is a topic for whichever DCC you use (Max or C4D) and would be down to tutorials for that software. For bubbles and foam, that would be best done using Phoenix, and again that would be tutorials for that software on how to do that (should be some good ones there, since it is also a Chaos product!). As for the texture related questions, those can be added to the list of possible future topics. For fruit, see our earlier tutorial on Subsurface Scattering, which is a large part of making fruit look good, e.g. ua-cam.com/video/uewtBJuONe0/v-deo.html looks at strawberries in particular. And we'll keep the other topics in mind! Thanks! Tom

We haven't forgotten this question :) The tutorial author is on vacation at the moment, and we'll need them to say where the object came from and whether it can be downloaded, so we'll have an answer next week. Thanks! Tom

Howdy there! The 3D model we've used we got on CGMood (cgmood.com/3d-model/3d-joseph-from-machinarium-model) although we did modify it a bit to fit our vision for this scene :) Hope that helps! Nejc

Hmm doesn't sound right, are you sure you have the sun's visibility toggled to on? If that ain't it we'd suggest contacting support (support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) or hoping over to our forums (forum.corona-renderer.com/) and opening a thread there. Nejc

Howdy! Not sure what exactly you mean but if you simply resize the VFB window it'll change the rendering resolution accordingly. Or did you maybe have something else in mind? Nejc

@@ChaosCorona i found it already default render resolution in the vfb is half your screen resolution. In your render settings, then system, then system settings there is a number called image upscaling factor which is at 2 by default (so it only renders half the resolution of your screen and then upscales it so the interactive render is faster). I changed it to 1 so it renders the native screen resolution in the interactive render. But I'm sure u guys knew that setting since you work for corona renderer 😉

most of the time some standard triplanar is enough, or the most basic uwv modifier, especially when you are using roughness, bump and displacement slots too, because you want to achieve an old fucking mess, not some pixelperfect brand new wooden texture so dont give yourself too much headache, man faking it is enough, and when you are doing archviz is more than enough

Howdy! Personally, I typically try to see if a simple UVW unwrap can be done - that typically takes care of things like wood grain direction etc. If that isn't quite possible to do I'd probably start messing around with what user-hz4fj5xw2u suggested. There's loads of different ways to approach it depending on what exactly you want to do. For example, if you're dealing with just an imperfect looking metal material then triplanar method is typically all you need. If I may I'd suggest opening up a topic over on our forums (forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php) and we can share visual examples there plus we can obviously also go into more details. Nejc

Or substance 3d sampler

Hello! It is a photoscanned 3D model so all of the texture maps came with it (and are based on a real world object). That said as we note in the tutorial we do give ourselves a lot of creative freedom in how we are setting it all up so we get a more "custom" look. Nejc

And thank you for the kind comment! Nejc

wp! Nejc

Use a CoronaMultiMap, which offers randomization by Tile ID. BTW if you had asked over on the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/ then we'd have been able to share a screen grab of such a set up ;) Hope this helps! Tom

TY for your feedback! The way the scenes turn out is primarily due to constructing the scenes based around showing particular features, which limits what those scenes can be - but we'll be changing that approach for our next release video so that the scenes can focus purely on how good they look :) Thanks! Tom

Howdy! The "Level" parameter acts as a multiplier for your base layer color. So Level set to 1 means you'll see exactly the color / texture you're plugging into the base layer's color slot. If you lower the Level to 0.5 for example then you'll see the base layer's color become a lot darker. That's because you're essentially darkening whatever is driving the base layer color - regardless of whether its just a color or a texture. The "Maps options" works differently. In there you're basically deciding how much of whatever you're plugging into the the given slot is getting mixed on whatever is the existing value set in that slot. So for example, if you have a red color set for the base layer's color and then you plug in a texture map and under "Maps options" you set it to 50%, you'll be mixing 50% of the map with the red color. Hope that helps! Nejc

Thanks so much for the clarification and this beneficial reply.

@@sohadelghoneimy Glad you've find it useful :) Have a nice day! Nejc

Not within the Tile shader at the moment, no - sorry. Tom

Howdy! Not sure what could have gone awry there but it should most definitely work. I would kindly suggest contacting either our support team (support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) or hop onto our forums (forum.corona-renderer.com/) and start a new topic there. Nejc

@@ChaosCorona Thank you for your quick response, it is working perfectly. Actually, It was my own mistake, the ceiling layer was accidentally turned off.

You are welcome, and glad you got it resolved! Also, ty for sharing the cause that you uncovered, as that can always prove helpful to others so that's a cool thing to do :) Thanks! Tom

well I guess at this point I should mention he was one of my favorite characters on the show. Don't really hear it myself but appreciate the comment, haha! Nejc

@@ChaosCorona haha great show! You’re glad I didn’t say Toby but all jokes aside thank you for the tutorial I was looking for accurate caustic rendering I’m definitely picking up corona and C4D when I can afford it.

@@zeropointpoly Oh I don't know about Toby, I'm definitely more ecstatic about my everyday than he is :) Glad you've found the tutorial useful and hope to see you aboard the Corona train! Nejc

Hi! I can only speak to the Corona side - in order not to slow the development of Corona overall, we have chosen to focus on the two primary DCCs used for archviz (not architectural work itself, but for the full visualization aspect) which are Max and C4D, with no plans to integrate into other software. Hope this helps! Tom

@@ChaosCorona Okay, I see the idea. Well, we are going to adapt to this long work curve with Archicad-3DS-Corona... All-in-one would be so nice, really !!!

I am not 100% sure what you mean by "include with Scatter" - if you mean build it in to the Scatter UI in some way, the answer would be no, since this is dependent on the render engine as it all happens at the material level, and Scatter works with multiple engines. Also it would clutter the Scatter UI for something that is not always required. And last, this technique goes well beyond just working with Chaos Scatter, since it is material driven and not part of the scattering process (which handles the geometry). Hope this answers the question! Tom

Hi! You are correct, this is a known issue at present, though it is being worked on and will be fixed in a future release. Hope this helps! Tom

Not entirely sure I follow the question, so do follow up if this doesn't answer things for you (also, if you are trying this for yourself and getting different results, it would help to see the renders, the material set up you are using, or even the scene, which can be done via posting on the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/ or by sending in a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new ). Anyway, we do not split the geometry - we do select some of the geometry and apply one material to it (the dirty glass, on the selection of polys that make up the outside), and then apply the clean glass to the other polys. The object remains one piece of geometry, just some faces are painted with one material, and the remainder painted with the other. It also helps that the same glass is used for both - on the outside, it's the glass material layered with the dirt; on the inside, it's the glass material with no dirt layer; but both are the same glass material. Let us know if that helps! Thanks! Tom EDIT - so there are no thin planes involved; it remains one object with an actual volume.

We'd need more information on the material set up, the scene, which version of Corona etc. - and screenshots and renders would be a big help too. You can do all this by posting on the forum in "I Need Help" e.g. here is the Max board there is another for C4D though forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=29.0 . Or you can always open a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new (has the advantage that you can send us the scene itself, without it being visible to the Corona community, because nothing is more useful in answering a question than seeing the scene itself :) ). Hope this helps! Tom

With a subscription, of course - most of our users are using it for commercial work. Hope this helps! Tom

Hello! Yes indeed, there is one development team for Corona and another one for V-Ray. That said the teams do work together depending when there is a good opportunity to do so. Nejc

Thank you for the kind words! This is certainly what we have in mind when creating and improving Corona :) Thanks! Tom

Thank you for the feedback! If there are specific models or categories of objects or materials that you'd like to see added, you can let us know by ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new as we are always happy to hear suggestions, and nothing is more valuable in shaping future developments than feedback from our users. You are the ones who know best in terms of what is needed :) Thanks! Tom

TY for the feedback! If you can post over on the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=5.0 then it can tracked in our future plans. Thanks! Tom

You are welcome, we are glad you found it helpful! Tom

Any will work, and best starting point is the content in Cosmos since it is included with Corona and has trees, grass, and even some preset scatters too that include both the scatter and the models to be scattered. Hope this helps! Tom

@@ChaosCorona Amazing info! Thank you so much. Is there some tutorial to show how to set corona in 3ds max initially? Like gamma settings and some global settings, for correct visual/color outout?

Hi! Unfortunately this video is very old, so we don't have any information on how long it took to do the AO pass here. As for your render seeming to be so slow, best bet is to open a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new where you can send in the scene for us to take a look at and see if there are any problems with how you have it set up, or post over on the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=29.0 (though sharing a scene there would make it available for the community so ticket is probably best...) . Thanks! Tom

Thank you for the feedback and kind words! We'll do our best to make sure some creative stuff like this one gets added into the mix of upcoming tutorials :) Thanks! Tom

Hi! Because we had covered the main types of materials included in every regular archviz scene. Anything else would be more specialist and not something used in every scene. If you have requests for specific materials, do feel free to post those requests via the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?board=9.0 - thanks! Tom

There won't be a Corona GPU, sorry - the compromises in GPU even with today's technology is against Corona's focus on realism, plus to write GPU we'd have to completely slow down CPU Corona development for around 2 years (it is a big task to rewrite for GPU as things have to be handled differently due to the different hardware architecture). However, the good news is that for Corona 12 we are hoping and planning to allow export to Vantage, which is a GPU based solution, which will give a route for those who want a GPU rendering solution for some of their Corona scenes. Hope this helps! Tom
