It’s with great pleasure that we announce the release of Corona Renderer 11 for Cinema 4D! With Clearcoat and Sheen in the new Physical Material, easy and fast aerial perspective in the Corona Sky, the addition of the Corona Material Library, the ability to render OpenVDB files for fire and smoke simulations, faster rendering, and many more updates, this release will give you better results, all while making your 3D work easier and speedier!

 

QUICK FACTS

---

• New Physical Material – Greater realism without any extra work from you, and greater compatibility with other software and worklows with mapped Metalness, a choice of Roughness or Glossiness mode, and more.
• The Corona Material Library has been added – over 500 materials to use instantly in your scenes.
• Corona Sky PRG Clear Sky Model is the new name for the “Improved” model, and now includes Volume Effect (aerial perspective), Turbidity, Altitude, and Horizon Blur controls.
• The Corona Volume Grid allows the loading of OpenVDB for smoke, fire, etc.
• Faster! Rendering is faster thanks to processing passes in blocks (invisibly, in most cases), optimized opacity/absorption with multiple hits, faster denoising, and a general faster speed up that even effects empty scenes!
• Tooltips added.
• …and much more, see below for all the new features, improvements, and updates.
