Chaos Corona 12, update 1 is coming
Chaos Corona 12, update 1 is coming—and the first release candidate build is out now for 3ds Max! This is your chance to try out & test the new features:
- Take advantage of the Corona to Chaos Vantage Live link as an alternative to Interactive Rendering.
- Get significantly cleaner results in the same amount of time thanks to faster caustics.
- See reflected and refracted rays generated by caustics as they pass through volume materials.
- Easily share images with your clients, sending them right from the VFB, then discuss changes via markup, send deliverables, set up Virtual Tours, and more in Chaos Cloud Collaboration.
- Speed up creating test renders around four times and add extra responsiveness to IR with the new image upscaling.
- Have your exposure or white balance auto-adjust for a good starting point or to adapt to changing lighting during animations. White Balance has also been improved with a new algorithm for more pleasing results.
- And more!
