Some of users are think this is uncomfortable. This is it. ))

In older version 1.31 do you have the 2 opcions.I think this is preset…

odil24 · December 30, 2021, 4:55pm

Yes, it is like pre-sets for easy-to-use. If users want to keep these pre-sets so I will re-add and keep again.

Wow now luxrender and Octane need to play catchup if they are to be on Blender 3.0
I shall definitely choose Corona for archviz renders.
But im going to have to switch between different blender builds for now, Octane for product Viz on its 2.92? build. 2.93LTS for Luxrender when i want the caustics.
At some point this year i want to have all of the renders running on Blender 3.0 LTS or above.

Hi, just for information, latest Blender for Octane is an addon, no extra build needed (Free tier needs an update). Latest Luxcore 2.6 work on Blender 3.0.
It seams it is time to test Corona Renderer for Blender 3.0 again.

Cheers, mib

wow. Ah so the Newest Octane add-on has not come to the free-tier yet. Im looking forward to it though.

New v1.5 is out on first post!

Exposure not working in v1.5 ?

odil24 · January 13, 2022, 2:58pm

It works fine for me.
exposure

Joebhoy88 · January 13, 2022, 3:29pm

Exposure is greyed out and can’t be altered. Background hdri is dark

Joebhoy88 · January 13, 2022, 3:32pm

Version still says 1.4 could it be the wrong file you zipped?

odil24 · January 13, 2022, 3:36pm

1.Which version of Corona Renderer do you using? v1.6 or v3.0?
2. Are you using the latest v1.5 from today?

Joebhoy88 · January 13, 2022, 3:38pm

3.0 and v1.5 Wnt back and tried previous versions which work. v1.5 not working for me.

Works with your file but if i start from new and use hdri the exposure does not work.

Joebhoy88 · January 13, 2022, 3:57pm

Saved your file as a startup. Seems to work. Thanks for that.
