Bloom & Glare Pass Not Working

I have attached a scene file. If you render it, you’ll see it saves 3 files:

Virtual Beauty
Bloom Glare
RGBA

The RGBA file does not have bloom and glare coming off it, however the virtual beauty pass does. I added a Bloom Glare pass, but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything.

I’m having issues getting the B&G pass to show anything, the effect comes in the Beauty/Light Mix but the B&G pass is empty/black

I am on Mac OSX and latest Corona build

Yeah, the problem is happening on the PC version as well.

Hey guys, just wondering if this might be fixed eventually?

Looks like in the newest build:
-bloom and glare pass is saved completely black
-rgba is saved with bloom and glare, but it’s visible only on the objects, not on the background
-virtual beauty looks ok (bloom and glare applied)

Do you guys think this will be fixed within the beta 1 release?

It’s hard to say Matt… I was investigating this issue on Friday for some time, but I couldn’t find anything suspicious. Moreover, the issue might be in the core code, not in the C4D plugin side of the things. Will keep you posted if we find anything

Ahhh okay no worries. Thanks for letting me know houska :smiley:

Has this been resolved? I’m on the full version of corona and I’ve had a couple instances when I got a black B&G pass.

Wondered if it had to do with having the VFB window active with it checked before sending to render. Might be an incorrect hunch though.

Yes this is now fixed.
