Corona 1.x lost the most important core algorithms

Can you please give us a screenshot of what exactly you mean by the “Checkerboard Algorithm.”

I have no idea what this thread is about. :confused:
We will need some more explanations - example images would be great.
I can only say that I am sure Corona gets better with each new version. If one is experiencing some problems with a new version, which were not present in the older version, then my guess would be that it’s either user error, or some compatibility issue between the two versions which should be easily fixable, for example by using the converter script.

There is bucket rendering in the newest version of Corona and it is working almost the same way as in A7.2 - only the controls are more intuitive now (in older versions the number of samples would be squared or multiplied by 4 (I could never remember this) - and now simply the specified number of samples is added per each pass). It should be possible to achieve the same results with A7.2 buckets and newest buckets.

The Checkerboard algorithm is silently disabled in cracked version of corona

Loool

I was already curious to ask, whether there was some smart detail included like V-ray’s camera shake’n’flicker.

  1. It makes completely no sense to set bucket passes to 1 in A7.2 or any other version of Corona. You will get EXACTLY the same result as when using progressive mode and 64 passes. If bucket passes is set to 1 - then no adaptivity will be used, so there will be no advantage over progressive rendering whatsoever.

  2. Can you post any examples that would confirm your thesis?

Instead of comparing the specific settings, can you compare time to same quality?

Hello M.S.Referee
and Happy Easter everyone

for just curiosity:
You can compare two examples , render times and image quality from vers. 7.2 to the latest update of Corona Render ?
..and the temperature of the processor between the two versions ?

It ’ still possible this comparison ?

Thx

He can’t, he is currently banned for using crack :smiley:
