Corona materials appear black in viewport

Corona Corona for Cinema 4D Help Required
1

Hi, I’m working with the newest C4D version R26 on an MBP and with Corona Renderer Version 8 (Hotfix 1). Since I’m working with Corona Renderer I’m searching for a possibility to avoid the black (nothing) appearance of all the Corona materials in the viewport. Is there a chance to fix it or a workaround? Thanks

Hi, can you share some screenshots about this? Are the textures loaded correctly? The more info you can gives us, the better.

I think he’s refering to the long-standing issue where glass, liquid metal etc. just show as solid black in the viewport.
(See my screengrabs using primitives, an HDRI and some mats from the corona library).

It is a bit of a PITA to be honest.
