CProxy and Smoothing Groups?

Corona Corona for 3ds Max General

It looks like that the CProxy object doesn’t store smoothing groups, is this true? And if so, could it?

There’s also feature request to address this issue, has been registered: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/ Proxy to mesh - set normals to average instead of explicit
I will backlink from that topic, if some useful info will be posted here.

CProxy is able to recognize smoothing groups =)

Hmm, ok. I guess I have to figure out a work around for now. Thanks for the heads up.

My issue was trying to save smoothing groups in a CProxy object, and apparently this is not possible for now.

Thanks for reporting. We’ll see what can be done about it.

Hi guys, could you please provide us with some simple steps how to reproduce this issue?
Is it like this?

  1. Create some object, convert to poly, apply different smoothing groups to it
  2. Convert to CProxy
  3. Convert back to poly
  4. Check smoothing groups
    ?
