That's fine too I guess. I really like that Maxon are now giving us a peek at upcoming features, and September will be here before we know it.

the post on instagram leads me to now believe the livestream tomorrow is not coinciding with the release at the same time... "Join us Wednesday at 7 am PST for an exciting livestream about the upcoming new features in Cinema 4D & Redshift "

It would be great to have such converter.

I hope that foam could be generated too. Water without foam looks like not water...

Jeez I thought they'd wait till September for fluids. Looks cool.

STREAMING ON JUNE 18TH AT 10AM (est)

You could use the VF to fracture your single Plane with the video texture... What kind of cones do you have ?

Could you circumvent the problem by just splitting the singular grid-video into separate image sequences?

I'm guessing standalone and included in Maxon One with new bells and whistles. No idea if it will still be called Autograph but the roadmap for those guys is now likely easier as they won't have to replicate anything that is already in Red Giant. The past couple of years too I was wondering how they could afford development, now they don't have to worry as much. Some of the dedicated nerds on Reddit are really swearing about this but I don't get the hate. We get to see new cool stuff in the future and that is a win. Not much more to say about it, so now we can all wait and see what happens.

@Michael McAfee Please attach the scene file and videos you have

Thank you so very much. Seems I may have resolved the matter by using version 10 which my boot sequence is required to be compatible with Redshift. Again, thank you for your kind words, you are the best!!!!! DDO

This seems simple in theory, but I'm struggling. Maybe someone has a simpler way of doing this -- Basically I have a video file that contains a grid of smaller individual videos. I need to take the individual squares from the video grid, and put those onto a grid of clones in Cinema 4D using Redshift. I've tried projecting the video file onto the clones, but the clones have a border, so it's not lining up correctly. I've also tried using Scalar User Data in the Redshift material, and using the Object ID Normalized attribute, which also isn't quite working. Perhaps because the grid isn't a perfect square? (It's 24x26). If anyone has achieved something similar, I'd be grateful for any insights or advice. Have spent the last 2 days trying to get this to work with no luck. Thanks!

Your listed version number is 2025.1.3. We are up on 2025.2.1 now, so that's the first thing to check. Then we could look at what video driver you have installed. And we could do with a couple of comparative screenshots as well, to check that what you are actually seeing matches the words you are using ! That wasn't meant to be as condescending as it sounds - it's just that a term like reverse perspective could mean a few possible things in 3D space, and we need to know exactly what you see so we have a fixed point to start investigations from ! Having said all that, I am not the person to assist with this, being one of those people who seems to be leaving the Win 11 upgrade to the last possible moment - I haven't done it yet. CBR

Once again, I am humbled to ask for help ... but, HELP, please! I am using Windows 11, recent upgrade from Windows 10 -- that is when this camera issue first appeared. I am using Redshift _C4D) and the standard camera is showing a reverse perspective from my scene??? I have googled the issue with little luck for my level of understanding ... at this time, anyway. Can someone of greater knowledge/experience please, please, help this lowly plebe navigate to a solution. Any help would be most greatly welcomed. Thank you in advance for tolerating such a noob question!

Thank you, ALL! This solved my issue and I am humbly grateful! DDO

Interesting to see if they will build a C4D Compositing tool or a new standalone based on Autograph and Red Giant

Lots of marketing leading up to AIA, then all I saw was an Instagram clip from Rick. Is there any other information about this tech/product?

Yes, archviz is big market and getting the real time rendering tech on both Win and Mac is quite nice

Happy to say I prefer forum discussion much better than anything else. At very least bashing is delegated to very end of the topic 😄

Yep, I prefer the forum days rather than Twitter or Reddit. I checked a couple of Reddit pages on all this and there were already people wanting to burn Maxon's house down, which seemed a bit harsh. I expect interesting times ahead too.

@BoganTW, I think we properly laid out Maxon's options – it will be interesting to sit on the sidelines and watch how things will unfold. Thank you for the discussion, this feels like internet from a more elegant and civilized age 🙂

New plastic did a whole series on Afro hairstyles, and it was absolutely brilliant ! He was using octane at the time, but a lot of it still applies. Here's the first one... CBR

Here is a curl spline setup, quite interesting! Curl_spline.c4d
