    Again, very useful stuff, but the thumbs up I gave it was for Jesus Saves (incrementally) ;) CBR

    Well that's all working fine isn't it ? :) Nicely done ! CBR

    Multimedia Generalist, I would have thought ! :) Or just CG artist ? CBR

    He's got proper superpowers, that guy. Not only in C4D. The other week on AskGSG he turned hiccups off ! Literally just 'did a move' and they stopped ! I suspect he can also jump vast distances ;) CBR

    Just a heads up for those that don't already know, but Chris Schmidt is up on c4dlive.com at 1430 PDT (2230 BST, UK). So about 2 hours away at time of posting... His presentations tend to be better than everyone else's, in that he usually spends 100% of his time packing in an incredible amount of practically useful information, and I think he's doing another Top 50 Tips and Tricks session this year, which are always essential viewing, I find...

    Oh, I dunno - I doubt any harm will come to youngsters if they view this, and it will make the rest of us laugh ;) I'd leave that right where it is ! CBR

    Wow - what a job ! :) MUCH more than just a list, and very attractively done. Thank you for doing this - very very helpful. CBR
  8. Cerbera
    Yep, all good points :) Thanks for the explanation... makes a lot of sense. CBR
  9. Cerbera
    Yeah, and more cartoony to do that too... Also, I think his ears should be sticking out of the ninja gear :) CBR

    This is excellent, and should help a lot of people understand this. Have added to my list of reference videos for people asking about this ! I like the subtle humour in it as well - definitely moves it up a league ! :) CBR

    I can't decide if I like the eye bulge there, or whether they should be flat and ridiculously magnified, like through glasses etc :) CBR
  12. Cerbera
    But if that is the case, then what is happening here ? :) CBR
  13. Cerbera
    I like the idea of having his eyes at the end of his scope :) And beautiful topology as always... CBR

    No, 'New users and beginners' is not the place for this, as you are using a lot of 3rd party stuff that doesn't come with Cinema. For that reason I have moved it to the 'plugins, making, finding, using' section. CBR

    But we are still losing the specular from the material, which is arguably not a good idea, as some specular is unquestionably part of realistic lighting. We definitely shouldn't have it twice, but just wondering if we can get that render saving and still have, say 20% specular as part of a Beckmann layer for example... CBR
  16. Cerbera
    That's interesting. I'd always assumed that if people were using reflection layers like Beckmann etc they should use the specular controls in that, and delete the standard specular that is only there by default for previous version compatibility. I notice you didn't do that, so was wondering if you would get your render saving by removing that without having to disable it in the lights ? Also, for general information we should probably add that with Physical Render you can go one stage further than this and get an even greater render saving (in some circumstances) if you bin the colour channel as well, and do that with a reflection base layer instead. CBR

    It gets points from me for out-ridiculous-ing the original, which takes some doing ! And respect for sheer amount of animation - however long did that take you ?! CBR
  18. Cerbera
    If you can't find it I'd suggest using an alternative like Poser Fusion which comes with Poser Pro 2014+. CBR
  19. Cerbera
    We can't tell that without seeing the lines ;) It might be all booles, triangles and phong ! But I hope not - guess it depends who was driving... CBR

    Hugely powerful as always, but I wish someone would throw that entire interface in the bin and start again ! :) CBR

    That bevel tool has some hidden secrets. Who knew about the live sub-selections ? Certainly not me ! Good old CV to the rescue again... https://www.cineversity.com/vidplaylist/cineversity_1on1_quick_tip/bevel_tool_secret_-_tapered_and_non-uniform_beveled_edges Just making sure as many people see that as possible, as that is a nice trick to have up your 3D sleeve... CBR

    But not here please, as it's not what this thread is about ! ;) I have already submitted a scene to MAXON that demonstrates OpenSubDiv not working with UV mapped objects if that's any help ? Did that about 2 years ago ! CBR

    My list of excuses for not downloading that are dwindling fast. I might just have to... CBR

    Thanks for the info there - good to know. £300 seems like such a small amount for such power :) I see you found my Ionic Capital GIF :) I was working on Part 2, but half way through decided it might be better to do the whole column and in fact a whole Greek Temple scene in a video tutorial instead. I am still finding out if I am any good at those, and will release that if it turns out I am ! ;) CBR
