cannot render with corona under OS X yosemite 10.10.5 and cinema 4d studio r19. unfortunately i cannot post the scene… but the same scene, rendered in the PC WIN renders fine… same scene… same resolution everything it’s the same… rendered at 4000 x 2000 in OS X corona crash after some passes… i have a mac pro late 2013 with 32 G of ram… the PC it is a simple i7 with 16 G of ram… and if i renders the scene in the PC at 7000 x 3500 everything is fine… in the mac version corona crash…
i use:
Build timestamp: Feb 5 2018 10:05:29
Version: B1 (core 1.7)
Cinema version: CINEMA 4D Studio R19.053 S
in little words,on OS X , the renders start and seems to work fine… when i try to save a CXR step, the plugin crash and i have to force the exit in cinema 4d… a cannot understand what’s happen. I post a screenshot and the bug report.txt.
thanks a lot

the same thing happen to me… don’t matter the count of passes but, in OS X c4d freeze everytime with corona… 50 - 60 - 100 passes.. once you try to save the CXR files c4d and corona crashes…
in the WIN version everything seems to work fine…
no sleep mode… no screensaver active.. no energy safe mode… in some scene the crash happen after 10 or 20 passes… or when i try to save the CXR file… i don’t understand why…
I am using 10.10.5 & 10.13.3… with R18, almost run renders fine, facing some crashes which I do posting at forum.
Try few step… to find where its crashing… maybe helpful to render.
Its a big scene… disable/hide few objects (both red light) and try render and then few… I hope you will find that.
Try one render with orverride… see its still crashing or no, if it not… check materials.
i’m sorry but i’ve already done all the possible step that I could imagine… this is why i made this post… the problem seems to be related to big resolution… after some step ( 10 o r20 or 60 etc..etc.. ) corona crash… only in OS X version… on windows everything goes fine… i’m really sad..
Same problem here. I worked for months with different versions of corona on about 40 different projects. There has never been any issue and I could solve almost every problem. All my renders, even the ones rendering on high resolution for about 12 or more hours turned out to be very good. No crashes for months !
I am using Cinema4D 18 and working on macOS Sierra. Corona B1 (core 1.7) timestamp Feb 2018.

Since my last project I am facing an unsolved problem. The image crashes variously on 2, 5, 10, 15 passes. It seems it depends also on the resolution, since it renders more passes when the resolution is smaller. I tried to set up a new scene, change computers, eliminate high poly models, eliminate light sources, etc. but no evidence. Then I tried to render the scene with an earlier build from January 2018 and October 2017. Still the same.
I am very curious about the problem, since I can no more rely on Corona at the moment. The crashes are unpredictable.
Still I hope the problem is linked to my project, not in general.

As said, I never had problems, even with much more complex scenes.
_
I would like to help solving the question. If necessary I can post a bug report.
For me it is important to figure out what exactly made the scene crash, to avoid that problem.
_
I do not believe it has to do with the version, since I worked on 10 other projects with the same settings.

We are happy that Corona has proved so useful to you even in the current Beta stage, but at the same time we are very sad about your current issues.
Is there any chance you could upload the problematic scene for us via the private uploader? ( https://corona-renderer.com/upload )
If the issue always happens with that scene, we should be able to reproduce it with debugging tools attached and we would hopefully be able to fix it immediately and issue a hotfix as soon as possible!
If you for any reason wish to not share the scene with us (we would keep it private, we promise!) alternatively you can make another simple scene that causes the crashes too. Or at least, you could pinpoint the problem by erasing stuff from the original scene until you find the culprit of the issues.
I downloaded the scene and tried to reproduce the crash but unfortunately everything works on my computer so I would like to ask everyone with this problem to download this https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_7B4-JMLMthPXfyxJewbHqGVz2QUh-n5 special testing build (don’t use it for normal work it is much slower) and send me the screenshot of error message if there will be any.
Thank you for the screenshots, these problems are really strange, especially the first one. I uploaded a new testing build, please download the build again (from the same URL) and install it again and then click “Crash App” for both cases and send me the BugReport.txt for both cases.
I uploaded the two bugreports to your server. They are marked with _1 or _2 in the filenames. The first one is the report showing up while starting Cinema4D. The second one refers to the one showing up during the render process.
I only ran 50 passes which took some time, let it denoise then saved the cxr. I’m a Windows user so I can’t say whether it’s OS related or not. It may even be the fact that AO is activated in the render settings but that is just speculation. Have you tried rendering without AO activated?
