Assets dropping on from multiple machines

Corona Corona for Cinema 4D General
1

Mac. C4D 2026.1.4
I use C4D across 2 machines. Files all saved in Dropbox. Even when I save my assets with the project I’ve noticed that most of the time my Corona materials (and HDRIs) that I use from Cosmos Browser do not carry over. It’s fine if I use material from the older Material Library. Is this because of some default local directory the Cosmos Browser stuff get saved to that is different on each machine (not on Dropbox?).
Even when I try to save the project with all the assets it doesn’t move the Cosmos material in to the resultant tex folder.
Is there a solution?

I just made a test using Cosmos materials, models, and an HDRI, which I saved using C4D’s File > Save project with assets and they were all included in the resulting folder.

yeah, TX files does not work. I convert mine to jpg but it is a pain

@Caspian @Barendby - I tried reproducing this on Mac. I made a simple scene with some Cosmos objects, materials, and an HDRI from Cosmos. I saved this file on Dropbox. Then I went to File > Save project with assets and saved it on Dropbox as well. In the resulting folder there is the C4D file, and all assets in the tex folder (.vrmesh, .tex, .jpg, and the hdri).

Perhaps I misunderstand the issue? If so, please let me know how exactly to reproduce this problem.

Maru, SORRY I misread his original message… I understood it drops from the other machine (and just assumed he meant Teamrender)
Teamrender does drop the TX files, saving with assets on my PC word perfect.

I randomly came across this case, I tried rendering random Cosmos assets + HDRI via Team Render on a Mac (C4D 2026, Corona 15 HF1) and everything appears to be working as expected. If anyone is having similar issues, please contact us at https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

I’ll try to record how it fails for me, and the only solution is re-downloading assets on my other Mac. Which is fine as long as I haven’t made any modifications to the asset.
