Vantage changing textures to white

[BillyGrey]

Hi,

I am designing a kitchen scene in Corona through C4d, and when I fire up Vantage to view, the Corona Physical Materials I've created dissapear. The mats are simple (only 2 applied so far, one dark wood, one light wood), the only nodes I've applied beyond the basic are normal nodes to import normal texts into the bump slots, and in one tex, I also added a variation node. I cloned these single original nodes to the many faces . Both textures vanish when firing up Vantage, but do not exhibit this behavior when viewing the scene in the Corona interactive render, where they are fine.

Please advise,

Thanks

B.

I thought live link wasn't available yet while using Corona. You might need to export a vrscene and work back and fourth or just use the Corona frame buffer until you get what you want then export.

Looks like you've hit the pin right on the head. Thank you for the reminder. Vray has live link, and I'm migrating from Vray/3ds, to Corona/C4d, so there's the breakage (and this was my first attempt to use Vantage w/C4d/Corona)

@ Chaos....Therefore, count me as another urgent request to integrate live linking of Vantage into Corona, and especially, live linking Vantage to REVIT/Vray.

The undemocratic release schedules in all of Chaos products makes it very difficult to coordinate the entire ecosystem. I know you all serve many different communities, but that is the point, you serve allot of communities, and it should be equally.

I am confused. Was Live Link involved in any of this? There is LL from V-Ray for C4D to Vantage, but not from Corona AFAIK. You used Corona for C4D and exported a file to load in Vantage, right?
