Corona Corona Common Announcements

I’m using alpha 5 and shadow catcher is greyed out (balck text) and unavailable.
What should i do?
Thank you.

You shoud patiently wait till Keymaster implement this feature in Corona. In the meantime, you can try this little workaraound: Corona Shadow Matte rough solution - Corona for 3ds Max :: General - Chaos Forum

Thank you romullus

25

Booom - A6/corona did a(nother) step
Bravo

26

What do you mean?

27

My mistake, I thought that would be ready in a6 but now I’m not so sure unfortunately.
Should always check original post date :S

28

So im really dont understand, how exactly use that shadow catcher mtl? Poke my nose :smiley:

29

it unfortunately did not make it into A6, because it was not fully finished yet

30

Bummer, I hoped for this addition for a long time. Will there be an update to A6 or is this scheduled for the final commercial release then?

31

it wíll be in the next (still free) release

33

Ok, im understand :smiley: Thanks for your answer! Ill try to get daily build, because it really necessary thing.

PS: sorry for my bad english :smiley:

34

And, I hope, something similar to IM, due fly-throught animations. With PT+HD render time is too much for interior animation compared to IM+LC.

35

Yesss, that would be awesome…

36

What is IM?

I assume that LC is LightCache, but I’m not sure what is IM :tongue:

Cheers.

37

Maybe Irradiance Map :smiley:

38

39

Oh. Sorry for the bump

41
