No contest there as far as I am concerned.Ĭorona for ArchiCAD is better than CineRender perhaps, but not anything radically better. And the quality is the comparable if not equal, but much, much easier to achieve with Lumion. Lumion 9 Pro is perhaps 50 times faster than faster that Art*Lantis 2019. I also have a demo for Art*Lantis 2019 installed. Lumion 9 Pro LiveSynk add-on for ArchiCAD 22 I have installed with the Corona add-on for ArchiCAD, Maxwell Render add-on is for an older version of ArchiCAD. They (currently) have no plans to work on a Revit plugin or port any time soon.Īnd all of this is why we need a Benchmark file.


So before long we will have an ArchiCAD-Corona combination to match up to Revit-Vray. Of course it hardly matters now since Chaosgroup (the makers of Vray) bought out the company that makes Corona (even though they're still producing both as separate products).Īlso, if you're not aware, the makers of Corona are actually working on a port or a bridge for ArchiCAD specifically, to their render engine and they even showed off a working demo at a recent user conference complete with a working RT interactive renderer and window porting directly from ArchiCAD's 3D window. Which would be why you're seeing a lot of Vray users jumping ship and switching to Corona. It terms of its simplicity of use, it's speed in many situations, it's post-processing and lens-effects features. Having used both extensively, I have to state that Corona is far superior to Vray in many respects. I really wish ArchiCAD had a port for Vray. About post, for Vray you need only a simple click on a Nick Collection Filter for Photoshop, but for Octane you have to spend too many hours in Photoshop for your final render.

That could account for certain bitmaps appearing on some models but not others when rendering.Ĭould you post some screenshots of your selected models (showing their modifier stacks, if they have UVW mapping coordinates applied) and perhaps some shots of the materials themselves to we could take a look at them? Or, if you could record an Autodesk Screencast video showing your workflow, that would be helpful as well.įinally, have you contacted the Chaos Group's technical support channels as well? Since Chaos Group makes the V-Ray renderer for 3ds Max, Maya and other programs, they can also help you with V-Ray-specific questions.I have both, Octane and Vray on another 3D software, and Vray RT GPU is way faster than Octane in many situations, and for other features Vray is way ahead of anything else in the market. I'm wondering if you have a multi/sub-object material applied to your objects and/or different map channel IDs which are present on some models but not others. Without seeing your exact scene setup (UVW maps applied and so forth), it's a bit tough to diagnose this.
