Re: cannot open node editor

It wasn't minimised but I have found it. It was docked and the tab was hidden in a bunch of others so I hadn't seen it. I've saved a config with it un-docked now.

Thanks

Hi rojharris,

Which Mac Os X version?
Do you mind to share a bugreport.txt?
Do you mind to make a screen video capture to better understand what is going on in your particular case?

Re: Version 3.06.2 - Latest stable

Is anyone having trouble with latest nVidia driver release? I am getting constant crashes on even the simplest scenes.
:-(
Will report in more detail soon.

Re: Exponential Fog ???

Ah, Thanks so much! I had to set a huge thickness (5000) together with a tiny density (.00015). I would never have thought to try values like that.

Working great now.

Straight Alpha broken in V3 ?

I can't find an answer to this on the forum but is the alpha channel broken in V3?

If I render a straight/separate alpha (C4D save dialog) then tick 'alpha channel' in the kernel settings, making sure to NOT set 'pre-multiply alpha' in the cameraImager settings I should in theory get a beauty pass ...

Re: Atmospheric fog ?

I wouldn't bother Chris. Its not possible as far as I can tell.

The big giant fog volume works a treat. Check out the sample with the greenish fog and icebergs scene in the samples. I edited that scene a bit and saved that volume as a preset.
Rendering nice and fast and looks great.
