Corona the best of the best of the best for archviz. You're genius guys, just keep evolving. ♥♥🔥🔥💪💪💪

[jkdesignstudio.]

love your presentation, pure talent, 😍

Chaos scans require a much better interface, other than that, they are quite handy. Corona 9 really sped up our workflow from eliminating using railclone as much, to procedural clouds. So thank you.

Can we get an auto add feature for scatter edge trimmer, like the way forest pack has?

Great update.

nice additional info here, i loved the clouds and the pattern already but it was also nice to see the scatter trimmer shader, i wonder if the cutout (ttrimmed by the new shader)meshes also have proper alpha matte maps. Also the randomize UV by decals feature, not clear, is it like the decal helper defines where the randomization will occur? and anything of out the range of the decal widget, no texture randomization happens? Sounds like a an interesting feature that lacking some explanatory material....

i just checked, corona render has a bug with volume grid, when im trying to render any vdb, it casts wrong shadows when volume grid, which is a box, going through any object. I mean if the volume grid floating above plane, its ok, we getting good shadows.

Not sure what's going on at chaos but someone has forgotten to add motion blur to the clouds when doing long shutter speeds a bit of a fail team.

Any future plans for a workable link between Quixel Bridge and Corona? Converting materials works, but not that well.

[kers]

can i turn the "corona pattern object" into an editable object ?

Very poor quality both of video resolution and tutorial technique: it is very difficult to see what instruments are selected and because of the speed and poor quality. It is useless.
