finally scatter brush!!!
Corona to Vantage is great, thats what I was waiting for. Thanks
You are welcome! You can always share any results (that you want to share, and that you can share based on client NDAs etc.) over on the forums forum.corona-renderer.com/ as we'd love to see what everyone is creating with it! Thanks! Tom
Wonderful Tom! Huge time savers in this update!! ♥️♥️
Thank you! We hope it does indeed save you lots of time, as time is valuable. Best regards! Tom
That paint brush inside scatter is game changer ! Thank you
You are welcome, and thank you for taking the time to let us know! Tom
Awesome features...The brush in scatter and link with vantage is definitely my favorites
Thank you for the feedback! Tom
YEEEEE thank you, it turned out very well 😍😍
This looks awesome !
Was the fluffy blanket at 5.32 achieved exclusively with pattern mod or by combining pattern with scatter? We've been trying to find a good way to achieve this that isn't too heavy on the scene so any insight is welcome!
Scatter was used to create the "fuzz" effect, and that was then converted to geometry to be used in the pattern. Hope this helps! Tom
Will a pause in RT appear in Corona 17? or Corona 21? or Corona 29? or never?
Hi! You mean for IR (Interactive Rendering), the ability to pause and resume? Nothing planned at the moment, but you can always add a request to the Features Request section of the forums ( forum.corona-renderer.com/ ) or via ticket ( support.chaos.com/requests/new ) and it will add to any past requests we already have for such a feature. Otherwise, things get lost if requested on YT comments.
BTW we should have a new and improved way of submitting feature requests coming along real soon! It will make it easier to find and "upvote" requests for one thing, as well as many more benefits. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCorona This has been requested since the beginning of Corona I believe. A way to stop IR but keep the image on the viewport.
Thanks for this!!!
You're welcome! Tom
Please add corona batch render in VFB, if its possible. I want to save several renders per night so that I don't have to switch the lightmix myself. The standard function is very outdated.
Hi! Thank you for the feedback - so that your idea / request is not lost, please post in the Feature Request (either for Max or for C4D depending) over on the forums at forum.corona-renderer.com/ . I am not sure if this resolves your issue, but you can now have multiple LightMixes set up at the same time, which means one render can create the day, noon, night, etc. versions in just one render and you'll get all of those saved separately (so if you mean you don't want to render, then load the different LightMix .conf files to get the different versions... Corona 12 solves that without needing batch rendering). Hope this helps! Tom
It would be cool to have the possibility of rendering with corona in unreal engine or exporting corona material to unreal engine just like redshif does.
Great set of improvements!
Thank you for the kind words! We did work hard on this, and choose what we believed users would find to be the biggest jump forward we could do at this point in time. Thanks! Tom
Blimey, great update!
TY! Couldn't have said it better myself :) Tom
Excellent!
Wait, there was corona 11?! I will wait couple for months for Corona 14 ;) You are amazing guys.
Hahaha things move fast! We aim to do 2 versions a year, and I believe there was only 1 year in Corona's 9 year history where that did not happen. So next up will be 13, somewhere around end of October / start of November. Thanks! Tom
Nice to meet you again, Mr.Grimes
Thank you! A pleasure to meet you again too. With luck one day this may be in person too, at some event, we shall see - meantime, glad you are enjoying the videos :) Tom
great video! 😍
Glad you enjoyed it! Tom
yOU ARE AMAZING SIR, THANKS A LOT.!
Thank you for the kind words! I am glad you enjoyed the video :) Tom
Awesome, thanks Corona team
while exporting to vantage, whether the material nodes will be baked or we have to re-material in vantage ?
Hi! Most materials should come into Vantage looking very similar to how they are in Corona (for those materials that are compatible). They will not be editable though, so in that sense they are baked. You can however apply materials onto an object from any existing materials in the scene, or from Chaos Cosmos. But yep, as Vantage is not a content creation tool in the full sense (it is not intended to be), then material editing is not something available in it. Hope this helps! Tom
Vantage finally ❤❤❤
hi again ..thanks
after testing .. ithink i have an issue
final render when i choose gpu for fast denoising .. its not denoise while rendering .. its only when finish like high qualiy mood ..
is the problem in my software or anybody have the same issue
🙏
Sorry to hear you are having problems. For any issues or technical questions, please send in a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new as our tech support team (who are the ones who can help you) won't see any comments made on CZcams. Be sure to mention which DCC you are using, along with its version number. Thanks! Tom
can corona 12 work in GTX 1660ti MSI (laptop)??
Corona can work on any GPU, since it is purely CPU based. Vantage is the part that would need the GPU, and the requirements are on support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403291015569-What-are-the-system-requirements-to-run-Chaos-Vantage . Hope this helps! Tom
Nice release
Is vantage included in the sub or is it an extra purchase?
Vantage is a separate product, with its own subscription - this applies to V-Ray users too, as well as Corona users (and something we took effort to point out in the forums when people were asking for Vantage compatibility, to make sure people were aware and that it didn't change their interest in having the feature). Meantime, you can test out the functionality with the free trial of Vantage. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCorona Excellent, thanks Tom.
You are welcome! Tom
vantage does not recognize the coronacolorcorrect map when I associate it with my sky but it's already a good step forward, good luck for the future in the development of the software
TY for the good wishes, and for the feedback! This may help, the compatibility docs:
docs.chaos.com/display/LAV/Corona+for+3ds+Max+Features
docs.chaos.com/display/LAV/Corona+for+Cinema+4D+Features
And check under the "Environment" section for the sky info - color correct only works with basic bitmaps for the sky. Hope this helps! Tom
Hi, When is VR going to be a part of Corona?
real time VR?
VR is part of Corona, for offline rendering. As for real-time VR, well, today really - Vantage 2.5 has the first implementation of VR, so now you can export your scene to Vantage which is the real time solution for Corona, and try out its VR capabilities! Hope this helps! Tom
Also new for pattern is the capping. Correct?
Correct, but the capping is very specific - it only caps holes created by the Crop Box, not holes that were already there etc. We'll cover it in a future Pattern tutorial about the new features. Thanks! Tom
why every time i stop bathrender
then denoising on the vfb panel is turned off
I don't understand what's the improvement here when it's so inconvenient
please answer
There hasn't been any specific improvement regarding denoising, and indeed the whole denoising workflow is up for rework, hopefully in Corona 13. That's been overdue for a while given how many denoising options there are these days :) So VFB 2 improvements are about other things for now, not denoising. Hope this helps! Tom
Is corona for archicad fully ready with all material nodes and vfb features.
Sorry to disappoint, but there is no Corona for Archicad - that was discontinued in 2020 at quite an early stage, see forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=28493 . Best regards, Tom
@@ChaosCorona It feels very bad that even your core audience is archviz people and you are completely ignoring BIM Software. Ultimately they also generate surface at the end so what is the issue in implementing. Atleast leave some way like blender so community can develop it slowly.
@@3dMistri Hi! Part of our plan for Corona 13 is .vrscene import, with a focus on the .vrscene as written by Enscape, to open up the door to those who are architects moving their stuff over to where archviz people can "do their thing" (or the architect can give it a go themselves, with how simple Corona is). Other than that, the development time required to make any port of Corona itself, coupled with the lack of good developers to expand the team, would mean Corona development slowing down too much for our core products, making it non-viable.
There is a third party exporter from Blender that can send things to the Corona Standalone, so that door isn't closed off either. Hope this helps! Tom
I was really hoping for the clustering feature in chaos scatter, similar to what's in the forest pack... Please implement it, we have been asking for this for a very long time!
It is on the cards as something we'd like to develop for the next release of Scatter :) Thanks! Tom
When we getting a 360 panorama render viewer in corona VFB itself. it will be very helpful if we can see a 360 render in panorama viewer as well, while renderring and while IR
No plans at the moment - for feature requests, please send in a ticket at support.chaos.com/requests/new so that it reaches our support team and gets into our tracking system. Thanks! Tom
has the volume effect still not been fixed? lol ahaha
Not sure what you mean specifically - for assistance with specific problems, please send in a ticket via support.chaos.com/requests/new , as our support team do not see and can't assist with issues posted as comments on CZcams. So if you can send in which problem you mean via ticket, our support folks can let you know the status! Thanks! Tom
When will we have integrated C4D node system working with Corona Material? Their node editor is horrible.
Well our node system does something very different from the in-built node system, the two have different aims (ours is to allow having one node and connect it to multiple places in one or many shaders or other nodes, since our Max userbase can do all that and most Corona materials are built around that functionality).
Let us know via ticket exactly what is not working the C4D editor that you wish was working (support.chaos.com/requests/new ) and then we can respond and track that specific request. Hope this helps! Tom
I will miss the rotating 🙂 in the VFB.
:) It was somewhat iconic for Corona! While I do expect we'll see a "rendering is in progress" indicator, I doubt it will be the rotating smiley due to it not fitting well with the new look of the VFB. Chalk one up for nostalgia I guess. Thanks! Tom
There is an option in system setting to change from vfb 2.0 to vfb and there is :) but its not recommended!
Congrats everyone! This update is looking absolutely great :)
Thank you for the kind words! Tom
@@ChaosCorona Cheers Tom! :)
You and Corona team are great.. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words! Tom
Corona never disappoint!
instead of improving the rendering capabilities of a rendering engine , all effort has been done on other things. both vray and corona looks stagnant when it comes to core rendering engine
We welcome your feedback on what core features either engine should add! It is always good to hear such suggestions. A ticket can be created to send that in, support.chaos.com/requests/new, (and we'll have a new way to send in feature requests really soon). Thanks! Tom
I think it just comes down to the fact that all of their official promo material always comes out underrepresenting the engines capabilities. Anything you see in those videos could be done way better and way more realistic looking, instead it feels rushed and unfinished. Corona can indeed yield beautiful results, only that you have to check people's work instead of official trailers and promos.
Why would you assume that nobody is working in the render engine? Do you have inside information? Clearly not. Have a great day.
@@fernando749845 I am just reacting to what is shown in video and not assuming anything on my own .
What do you mean? In quality both Vray and Corona are still at the top of the market! Both Unreal and Blender's engines are not factually better than them, each has it's pros and cons.
thank you ❤ what about cryptomatte (adding masks) in vfb 🎀🎀
No plans for this in 13, sorry, but we'll see what is selected for development beyond that. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCorona tnx tom
You are welcome. Tom
9S in the background, respectable
Hahah, yes I picked that up at the NieR concert in Chicago earlier this year - my favorite game of all time :) And favorite music too! Tom
Could you please bring the Chaos Corona Render plugin to Maya?"
Sorry for the disappointment, but Corona will not be developed for any DCC other than the two currently supported. Best regards, Tom.
Any Maya support next?
Sorry for the disappointment, but there are no plans to ever support anything beyond 3ds Max and Cinema 4D for Corona. Best regards, Tom
Thanks for the update. It's still the best for my type of work.
Thank you for the feedback, and we'll keep working to make sure it stays the best for your type of work! Thanks! Tom
Please Vertex Color as ARNOLD or Marmoset for Zbrush artist!!!!
Thanks for the feedback! However, for any feature requests, please submit a ticket ( support.chaos.com/requests/new ) - anything posted on CZcams comments won't make it into the tracking system. Thanks in advance for taking the extra time to send that ticket over to us! Tom
Red XIII on Tom's side table 👾🔥
Been such a fan of Red since the original VII :) I don't normally buy figurines, but I couldn't pass up on this one! Tom
Please release the sketchup version of corona
Sorry, there will be no new versions of Corona developed for anything other than the core DCCs of 3ds Max and Cinema 4D. I hope that is not too disappointing. Best regards, Tom
Chaos Vantage for students license plss
You'd have to contact the Vantage team for that - best thing I can think of is to send in a ticket support.chaos.com/requests/new as the general way to get requests and feature requests in to the system, where they will then head to the relevant team(s). Thanks! Tom
But where has the spinning smiley face gone :(
The VFB was rewritten in QT, to make it more responsive and open the door for future improvements and features. Unfortunately the spinning smiley does not work there. While we aim to add some "rendering is in progress" indicator, it most likely will not be the smiley as it doesn't look good inside the new UI - so I'd say it is time to raise a toast, and "Press F to pay respects" as the meme goes, for the spinning smiley. Tom
@@ChaosCorona Thanks!😃
CoRoNa GPU wHeN?
they don't want to, they keep saying CPU rendering is faster than GPU rendering, I must be blind because corona is so slow on ym CPU but I switched to octane and I can render faster.
It's a fail marketing strategy if you have to invest thousands of euros to produce great archviz imagery
they have told this a million times and they must be tired to reply to the same dumb question.
They are a company that makes a CPU renderer and only that. and they are freaking great at it. its one of the fastest unbiased CPU renderers. they have mentioned that several times that, their only concentration is to make their product the best at what it is, not make a half baked product for just the sake of it, like vray GPU. its been there for 10+ years and still doesn't support many things and is one of the slowest GPU renderers. why? still the major concentration is on vray CPU development.
if you want GPU renderer, just switch to Redshift or Octane.. they are great because the company only developed FOR the GPU and its fast and has all major features.
@@punithaiu best reply ever
Oh I have to have a wee bit of a laugh here :) For background info, the original commenter was a member of the Corona team until very recently and a close friend of us all still!
There do seem to be some serious replies though, so, on that score - one reply is right, there will never be a Corona GPU as this would not be what people expect (all features of Corona, identical results, just magically on GPU and faster) and would take years of development time (rewriting for GPU is a complete change to how things are calculated), and so would slow down development of the core product significantly.
However, if you want GPU rendering, now you can have it by adding a Vantage license and using the new export functionality; GPU rendering with ray tracing no less! This opens up all the same possibilities as "Corona GPU" would have (with the same limitations), without the need for years of development and massively slowing development on everything else. A best of both worlds solution, we believe! Hope this helps! Tom
Also, "rowmanns, you dog!" lol :)
I think the Vantage features is coming to fill that request.
and you added more guitars damn
Just one more, I think, from the last video. I've stopped now. Honest! ;) Tom
nice NieR shirt
It was from the live concert in Chicago earlier this year, I love the game, and I love the music! Thanks! Tom (EDIT - Sorry, I said Boston and meant Chicago... that was because it was so good I have contemplated going again, to the Boston one that happens later this year lol).
@@ChaosCorona Truly some of the best game OST out there, high five.
Sorry but that version have nothing for architects.
Sorry you feel that way - do let us know what features you would like to see, that would make it good for architects, via the Feature Request sections of the forums (forum.corona-renderer.com/ ) so that we take those into consideration for future plans. Thanks! Tom
This Vantage animation looks so cartoonish. Corona animations are waaaay better and realistic but sadly they take longer to render.
There will be some tradeoff in realism for speed - however, don't take what the Corona team can create as being the best Vantage can do ;) Wait til you see what our users have been creating with Corona and Vantage (sign up for the webinar to catch the first glimpse of that!). Thanks! Tom
S.T.U.C.K.
nier automata is a hell of a game
My favorite game of all time, on so many levels. Including the awesome music :) T-shirt and the 9s plushie hiding in the background are from the Chicago live show earlier this year, it was amazing. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCoronanice to see people in this industry that also enjoy a good game in life.
Background trivia - it was gaming that brought me into 3D, the first "3D scene" I created was recreating an old torn-down church from a b&w photo using the editor in Half Life (not as a level, just as something to be 'rendered' out), and I enjoyed doing that so much I got into 3D rendering. Never let anyone tell you gaming is a waste of time! ;) Thanks! Tom
add to AI
Not sure if the comment is a request to have AI features added to Corona - either way, Chaos' approach to AI and some of what we view as being genuinely useful tools can be found at www.chaos.com/next , and Corona will aim to support or work with any Chaos AI tools as and when they become available. Thanks! Tom
شكرا @@ChaosCorona
You are welcome!
awesome, I like this relic renderer still have no GPU and as slow as 10 years ago on the also ancient relic software 3DSMAX🥰
But there is GPU, that is the main feature of the release - the ability to move your scene to real time ray tracing with Vantage. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCorona Great! Even more awesome, now you only have to pay 54usd per month more to get it render on GPU, good job
Which given the power and usability of Vantage is very reasonable. Not to mention there will never and never would have been a Corona GPU, so this is at least a way to have both options in your toolset. Thanks! Tom
@@ChaosCorona nice business model
@@perori_neko yes having vantage support is not considered as GPU support, its more like conversion . Its like converting corona material to vray and then exporting to vantage.:(
