Just checking it’s not possible still to make a proxy of a complex scene as is? Still can only be one mesh plus material selections?
Cheers
Hello Philw,
Could you please elaborate a bit more on why you need to create a proxy that includes a complete scene project?
In C4D, you can use Xref scenes if you want to work on different files.
I hope this helps.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards.
Not a scene as such - just, for example, a heavy, multiple item mesh of CAD-type data (e.g. vehicles) that isn’t easily made into one mesh plus material selections.
I’m using xrefs but they make the scene so slow to save and open - Corona proxies would be ideal. I tried having the main vehicle in the scene and then having instances of it in the scene (I need different positions for different backplate renders) - but my materials didn’t work on the instances - most notibly the decal objects I have set up.
Cheers
Decals do work with instances. See this thread and my last comment there. Hope that helps.

Yes, as @Beanzvision already mentioned, Decals works okay with instances.
