U-Render 2020.9.2

U-Render 2020.9.2 introduced full integration with Cinema 4D, enabling live rendering directly in the application’s viewport.

Reflections, Volumetrics and RGB Curves

Screen-visible object reflections combined specular and environment reflections. Volumetric updates added shadow-colour controls and addressed artefacts caused by differences between the volumetric clipping plane and the camera near plane.

Gloss and roughness textures plus clear-coat environment reflections improved materials such as varnished wood, coated metal, plastic and automotive paint.

RGB curves joined the colour-correction post-processing filter alongside bloom, depth of field, chromatic aberration and tone mapping.

U-Render 2020.9.2 was scheduled for release on 7 October 2020, with updates published on the U-Render website.
