Corona Batch Image Editor GUI

What does it do?

This 3dsMax script can batch process images from different folders and with different file types (EXR and CXR) using config files that can be generated with Corona Image Editor or Corona frame buffer.⁣ So, basically, it is an official GUI for the corona image editor command line.

Features

• Apply post-processing and light-mix on multiple images

        Batch processing multiple EXR / CXR files using Corona Image Editor (CMD)

• Different Groups of Config file setup

        Via naming pattern definition using the wildcard

        JPG / PNG / BMP / EXR

Note

Consider following me on Instagram or Facebook if you find it useful.⁣

• For this script to work you need Corona renderer installed.⁣
• No need for corona to install in the default directory. this script can find the corona installation directory by itself.⁣
• It will save each processed file in the same directory as the original ones. So, if you have files from multiple different folders they will be saved on those folders.
• You can choose your desired file type for the output file as well.⁣
• It will process all render elements.
