Corona Renderer for 3ds Max (2016-2025) + Scatter

Corona Renderer for 3ds Max Overview

Easily create stunning bathrooms, kitchens, walls, and floors with procedural tiles thanks to the Corona Tile Map.
You can now use bitmaps or procedural maps to define the colors of the tiles and repeat, randomize, or even tessellate an image onto the tiles, depending on your needs. The Corona Mapping Randomizer and MultiMap now come with “by tile id” modes, so that you can randomize results by each tile if desired.

Corona Renderer for 3ds Max Features

Corona Pattern – Place geometry on the surface as light as the texture.

Procedural Clouds – Add detail to your Corona Sky with animated procedural clouds and aircraft trails. You may never need HDRI again.

Edge Trimming in Chaos Scatter is a highly requested feature implemented in this Scatter update.

Chaos Scans – Maximize the realism of your materials, they have been carefully scanned so that each material reacts differently to lighting. Leather, fabrics and even foil can now be added to your scene to ensure they match the real world in both appearance and scale. Included with your Premium Subscription.

Chaos Player – An easy way to turn your image sequences into video format. Now you don’t have to use a complex video editor that is overkill for your daily needs. Included in Premium subscription.

Chaos Phoenix – Corona has supported Phoenix for several years, but only a few users have added it to their toolbox due to the significant additional cost. Now included with your Premium subscription is the perfect tool for creating fire, smoke, water and more.

Lots of smaller improvements – Depth of field from the fisheye camera, new material override settings to preserve slicers, external texture rendering to save memory during rendering, and more.

Note

With the introduction of Live Link in Corona 13, users will be able to import animations created in Corona for 3ds Max and Cinema 4D and render them in Vantage.
