Corona Renderer 7 HF2 for Maxon Cinema 4D with Material Library

Crash Fixes
- Fixed crash when selecting a shader from an empty shared shader
- Fixed occasional crashes in the Corona Bitmap in multi-tiling mode
- Fixed crash in Corona Bitmap when changing tiling mode without loaded bitmap
- Fixed occasional crashes in scenes using the Distance shader (usually reproducable in animations)
- Fixed crash with some versions of BigSur
- Fixed crash when setting Max IR Passes limit for the viewport IR
- Fixed crash when using displacement in Physical material under layered shader
- Fixed occasional crashes when rendering animations
- Fixed occasional crashes when rendering Corona Layered material
- Fixed crash when changing Instance Mode for a cloner with multiple cloned objects
- Fixed crash when running “Setup Interactive LightMix” in a scene with empty instances
- Fixed crash when starting a new render when Team Render is running
- Fixed problem with the VFB not being disabled when opening Open / Load / Save dialogs which could lead to crashes
- Fixed crash in Corona Standalone when stopping and restarting render
- Fixed crash when using Corona Select material without any material selection in a document
- Fixed crash when starting “Render takes into Picture Viewer” while render is running in Corona VFB
- Fixed crash when closing Cinema 4D
Team Render Fixes
- Fixed problem with incorrect photographic exposure when using Team Render
- Fixed problem with the Camera name not being shown in the render stamp when using Team Render
- Fixed problem with render not being saved in TeamRender when path was relative or contained tokens
- Fixed Team Render Server crashes when starting multiple single-image renders using web UI
- Fixed bug in Team Render causing lower effeciency when rendering more complex scenes
- Fixed rendering of Corona Bitmap via Team Render
- Fixed problem with post processing from Corona Camera not being applied when rendering using TeamRender Server
- Fixed resolving relative paths going outside project folder in Corona Bitmap and Corona Proxy
Corona Proxy Fixes
- Fixed problem where creating a Corona Proxy file using “Pick from scene” used an incorrect path when cancelled.
- Fixed problem with Corona Proxy in Full Mesh mode not showing in the viewport when its center is outside the viewport
- Fixed problem with “Only active object(s)” grayed out in Corona proxy export when multiple objects were selected
- Fixed problem with displacement not working when used on a Corona Proxy
- Fixed export of material assignments when exporting a Corona Proxy by collapsing several objects with different materials
- Fixed rotation of Corona Proxy after exporting child object
- Fixed export of material selections in Corona proxy when selection tag references geometry of different object
General Fixes
- Fixed problem with connections between nodes being misplaced if part of the Node Material Editor is outside of the screen.
- Fixed problem with the environment not updating in IR when changing Direct Visibility Material override
- Fixed preview of Corona Normal shader
- Fixed Corona Sky’s UI which depicted slightly incorrect slider values
- Renamed “Recursive” to “Include children” in include/exclude lists accross the UI
- Removed “Render hidden lights” in render settings (this option in the UI was carried over from 3ds Max, but has no effect in Cinema 4D)
- Time limit in render settings no longer allows extended layout with clock widgets as it doesn’t make sense in this context
- Changing displacement parameters in a material now correctly updates displacement in IR
- Fixed problems with emission artifacts when the emitting object uses displacement
- Fixed rendering of material previews with custom scale (previously, when setting a custom scale it could move the preview ball or object under the floor or above the camera view in the preview scene)
- Fixed copy/Cmd+C command and several shortcuts (Command +[arrow, +, -, 0, pageup, pagedown]) in the Corona VFB on macOS
- Fixed problem with Environment visibility overrides not working on macOS
- Fixes of macOS build for legacy CPUs
- Fixed problem with unusable parts of UI when some Corona material containing a Cinema 4D bitmap referenced a missing asset
- Fixed incorrect minimum value for contrast in Corona Camera
- Fixed problem with the Distance shader ignoring distance scale shader when used in MoGraph
- Fixed problem with other application gaining focus after closing “Interactive LightMix setup” dialog
- Fixed problem with “Render selected” not being updated in IR after changing objects hierarchy or object ID
- Fixed “Render selected” in object ID mode not respecting disabled “Inherit object buffer IDs from parent”
- Fixed occasional NaNs in bump in some scenes
- Fixed possible NaNs when rendering Skin and Hair materials
- Fixed problems with NaNs caused by some scenes containing a degenerated matrix (e.g. an object that has been scaled to have zero scale in at least one axis)
- Replaced radio buttons for anisotropy rotation mode with combo box to fix problems with radio buttons in S22 and newer
- Fixed problem with Acceleration structure in Development/Experimental settings not showing correct default value
- Unified the naming of Corona shaders
- Creating a Multi-shader over an existing shader now moves the original shader into the first Multi-shader slot
- Additional fixes in disabling the Curves dialog in the VFB when showing save/load dialogs
- Crop / Placement values inside Corona Bitmap now increment correctly for UV Unit space
- Fixed naming of Corona assets (Corona Bitmap, Corona Proxy) in the Cinema 4D Asset Inspector
- Fixed warning regarding the Corona VFB color space being incorrectly shown during the first start of Cinema 4D
- Fixed problem with the “-h” and “–help” arguments not working with the Corona installer
