We are excited to announce that the latest update, Corona 5 for 3ds Max 2019, is now available. You can sign in and experience the new update. This version focuses on optimizations, saving both memory and render times for general rendering, and more specifically for displacement and caustics:
- Memory and render time savings right out of the box, without the need to change anything in the scene.
- 2.5D Displacement – New default displacement calculation method, which gives you much faster scene parsing and even more memory savings.
- Caustics Optimizations – Caustics render faster and use less memory, no changes needed to the scene.
- General Optimizations – There are overall memory and render time savings, including for geometry processing and more.
- ColorCorrect Optimizations – The performance of the Corona Color Correct map has been improved.
- Hair – Corona now uses half the memory, and some artifacts have been removed.
- Corona Material Library updated (17 new basic Hair materials, 10 new Skin materials, and some smaller fixes).
