Open source wrapper for Octane/Redshift/Arnold/Vray/Corona in Cinema 4D.

Hi again,

Also another Corona AOV example here .

Finally preliminarily implemented using this library to approximate the operation of the renderer in Cinema 4D .

The learning process was very enjoyable, hope you also have fun with it

Cheers~

Result:

Code:

import c4d
import Renderer
from Renderer import Corona

def modify_corona_aov():

    # Get the doc host the aovs, in this case th active doc vp
    doc: c4d.documents.BaseDocument = c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument()
    vp: c4d.documents.BaseVideoPost = Renderer.GetVideoPost(doc, Renderer.ID_CORONA)
    # Set Corona AOVHelper instance
    aov_helper = Corona.AOV(vp)

    # turn on the mutipass
    aov_helper.enable_mutipass(True)
    
    # Add the DIFFUSE aov
    diff_aov = aov_helper.create_aov_shader(aov_type = Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_ALBEDO)    
    aov_helper.add_aov(diff_aov)

    # Add some aovs
    aov_helper.add_aov(aov_helper.create_aov_shader(aov_type = Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_EMISSION, aov_name = 'emmision aov'))
    aov_helper.add_aov(aov_helper.create_aov_shader(Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_REFLECT))
    aov_helper.add_aov(aov_helper.create_aov_shader(Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_REFRACT))
    aov_helper.add_aov(aov_helper.create_aov_shader(Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_TRANSLUCENCY))
    aov_helper.add_aov(aov_helper.create_aov_shader(Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_ZDEPTH))

    # Remove last aov: volume
    aov_helper.remove_last_aov()

    # Remove specified aov: wire
    aov_helper.remove_aov_type(aov_type = Corona.CORONA_MULTIPASS_TYPE_TRANSLUCENCY)

    # Print current aov info
    aov_helper.print_aov()

    Corona.AovManager()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    Renderer.ClearConsole()
    modify_aorona_aov()
    c4d.EventAdd()

Hi community!

New Updates here :

Fix some Octane and Corona functions (base on layer)
Add MaterialMaker and PBRPackage

PBRPackage means a suite of pbr textures, like a stone texture pack form PolyHaven or Megascan, you can provide the folder and the name to get the slot they should be:

we have a texture pack named Rock Stone 01
this package had some textures in D:/myTextures ,like Rock Stone 01_albedo.jpg/Rock Stone 01_Normal.png/Rock Stone 01_disp.exr.
we can provide the folder like D:/myTextures and its name like Rock Stone 01
then we get textures in a dictionary

data = {"diffuse": Rock Stone 01_albedo.jpg,
              "normal": Rock Stone 01_Normal.jpg,
              "displacement": Rock Stone 01_disp.jpg,
              etc...
}

Material Maker can easily add pbr materials from a package, and also you can use it with individuals textures.

But all of this build with this library, so only node materials on Redshift/Arnold/Vray, Octane and Corona is supported by thier own logics.

Hi community!

Add Basic CentiLeo Material support, also with ConvertPorts data, This a "new" GPU Renderer and in active development. I am very interested in it.

Not add AOV due to still being in the early stages of development, waiting for this.
