This article contains a list of known issues related to Corona and volumetric simulation plugins, and suggested solutions and workarounds. This includes:
V-Ray
Phoenix FD
- PhoenixFD/VRayVolumeGrid in Isosurface rendering mode is currently not supported.
- Phoenix FD Foam rendering is not supported in Corona 5 and older.
- The installed version of PhoenixFD is not fully supported. The minimum supported version of PhoenixFD is X.
- Interactive rendering does not fully support the currently installed version of PhoenixFD. The minimum required version is PhoenixFD X.
Fume FX
- Corona currently ignores illumination map settings of FumeFX nodes.
- Corona currently ignores motion blur settings of FumeFx nodes.
- Corona currently does not support FumeFX with Space Warps.
- Corona currently only supports rendering of FumeFX nodes using the Standard shader.
- The installed version of FumeFX is not fully supported. The minimum supported version of FumeFX is X.
Additional issues
Volumetric effects may not render as expected (may disappear completely, produce artifacts, or cause excessive noise or other unwanted issues) if:
- The camera is placed inside the medium (e.g. inside a Phoenix FD object, or inside a mesh with CoronaVolumeMtl applied)
- A light or object with CoronaLightMtl is placed inside the medium
