Corona Studio Tools : Free kit!

Corona Corona for Cinema 4D General
1

Hi!

Here is a small kit i made to ease the lighting with corona render, it’s available now for free!

Some features :
• Softbox Area light, for better reflections and easy controls
• Combined and adjusted sun and sky rig,
• HDRI loader with some viewport feedback
• 15 pre lit Studio Setups to get you going
• Entirely built around Interactive Render

New: Pro edition https://www.josefbsharah.net/studio-tools-pro/

NOTE : you need to resend the HDRI by enabling and disabling it, to counter a current bug in corona render.

Get it on Gumroad https://gumroad.com/josefbsharah

any feedback is welcome here.

Something to play with during the weekend.
Thanks a lot!

Thank you! Will take it for a spin.

Thanks Josef, I always like these studio packs to experiment with :smiley:

Wonderfull, thanks!

Few things I have noticed here and would give some marks:

-Some stage materials have no reflection at all, everything should have reflection, even the slightest value, so I would put something like 0.2 as default.
-It would be nice to have IR option force path tracing as default, so ir updates would be quicker without losing much.

Thanks once again :smiley:

Thanks for the feedback!,
I suppose both of these options can be easily defined by the user, the preset scenes are only a base to show an efficient use of light distribution :smiley:

Yep, sure, but I thought it would be handy to get these settings straght out of a box :smiley:

Thanks for the kit. Really useful to see how other people set these thing up

Josef,

This is so cool. I loved using your VRay Studio Tools product and had used that as a basis for making a Corona version. But now I have this too.
Thanks for being so generous.

Thank you Pikadon, i hope this set becomes just as useful, Corona Renderer is awesome!

No 3ds max version? :frowning:

14

I think Max get enough freebies! :wink:

Very nice Joseph! I got a lot of use out of your vray4C4d kit - great for making quick setups. Thanks for making this available!

Hey Josef,
thanks for sharing your great corona studio tools kit.
In your kit are some paths linking to octane (See the attached Screenshots)

It would be great if you can fix this in a further version.
Anyways - great Plugin as always :smiley:

Thanks for the heads up, you can swap the path with the corona library path instead!
i must have not noticed this one since i happen to have the octane library installed (which is also free btw!)

Hi

Can that be converted to Corona max library in any way.

Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately i don’t have Max at the moment, but perhaps someone with 3ds max experience can put together something
similar based on this using maxscript?
