Corona 13, 14
When i rendered Corona VFB show me one result but after save in CXR and opened it, Corona Image Editor Show different picture.
Only when i change color management from OCIO to Gamma Workflow in 3ds Max they both show me the same result after rendering.
As i see, Corona Image Editor don’t know cxrs with OCIO and show them like a old gamma method
Hi, this is expected, please see: https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/articles/25644031006865
Especially this part:
When you open the CXR file in the Corona Image Editor, all the Corona tonemapping and postprocessing effects are loaded based on the additional metadata, however the 3ds Max-specific color management settings cannot be applied outside of 3ds Max.
Corona Image Editor (and other software too) do not have these specific 3ds Max display/view transformation options, and because of this and the above, the image you are viewing in the Corona/Max VFB and a CXR you open in the Corona Image Editor look different.
If we would save the image as CXR with the 3ds Max-specific tone mapping “baked” into all image pixels and then open it in the Corona Image Editor, that would result in an incorrect appearance since we would be applying the Corona tone mapping and post processing effects after the 3ds Max-specific tonemapping, which is the wrong order of operations.
Thks.
If your priority is making sure that the image you see in the Corona VFB and the one in the Corona Image Editor are identical, you need to use the legacy 3ds Max Gamma Workflow.
In general, that’s the only way it works.
But I would like to have everything rendered (with tone mapping) in 3ds max at the output without “dancing with a tambourine”
