Hi I think it might not be possible to stack time tags. However, its possible to bake the smooth effect into the objects and then appy the posterisation tag. You might need to duplicate the objects to create a backup.

Hi there That's an unusual problem but here are some sugestions: 1- check the c4d versions on c4ds (host and clients) if it is the same. 2- re-check all render parameters like frame range , frame rate etc 3- check some options in the xref. You can change the x-ref from relative path to absolute path. Usually its relative but i sugest you to disable it and put in on absolute. 4- in the same x-ref options box check some parameters such as animation and parameters. in the end if everything fail, you can always create an alembic file from your character animation, transfer the materials, and put it t render. it usually works well, unless you have some kind of changing topology and then you might end without motionblur in your render. cheers

Sure. This bug is around for 3 or 4 previous releases and basicly when we are using fields, and for example we select a spline object as field, and if we use one of the curve/spline editors in a separate window, it show as blank. I'm putting some screenshots here to illustrate this issue. This issue however happens only with certain objects. perhaps that's why is hard to spot. Anyway it has already been reported.

Hi Since the release of R2024 i've already placed at least 7 bug requests/reports. After the 1.0 version 3 were fixed and 4 are still to be fixed. I agree that due to the complexity of software upgrade, things will take some time to fix, even if some bugs such as solo layer that are a real pain... These remaining 4 errors bugs (probably way more) are not what really bothers me. What really bothers me are bugs with years, that persists from various releases and dont get fixed. Thigs like the spline editor separate window when you are working with fields, the edge slide tool when while doing pose morphs, the viewport crashes, things like that. Those bugs are becoming permanent and i feel that more are in the way to get permanent too, even with constant reports. Still, i've been using R2024 for my work and find it better and faster so i really hope next upgrade will get these bugs fixed soon. cheers

oh sry. my mistake. but, some of that intel still valid. cheers

Going from r2023 to R2024 will work fine in most cases. However here are some situations that might cause diferences: There was some changes in the sdk that result in some plugins ceasing to work. Some tools like mirror selection, polygon mirror etc, exist but are considered legacy so they are slowly being romeved from their menus. Task manager changed a bit (logo missing) there are also a few bugs that are anoying but i think it will be fixed soon: solo layer is messed up and doesnt hide fields or nulls the input values in effectors change some animations if you put values like -1 instead of -0.999 carefull with xrefs or other kind referenced stuff. might cause bugs. besides these i'm working fine with both. cheers

I think its an annoying bug reggarding c4d. in the mospline, if the offset is set to 99.999 that problem disapears. such problem i think its related to c4d system itself. This however generates a small gap that i believe it can be solved with a optimize node as deformer. cheers

Hey! Another possibility is using a mospline loading the circle (or another shape). Then in the mospline effector pool load a plain to control the thickness of the circles. then use fields. With this system you only need one setup. mograph_thickness_with_mospline.c4d

upgraded version cheers counter.c4d

hey something like this? since the integer input fields has a limit , i set it up to 999.999.999 cheers counter.c4d

Hi There's a new patch release. version 0.1 is out. https://support.maxon.net/hc/en-us/articles/8658038724124-Cinema-4D-2024-0-1-September-20-2023 Some fixes are very welcome. Let's keep them comming. Thanks cheers

Amazing initiative. It's really a great help in order to master scene nodes. Thank you cheers

I just want to add one more issue to the watch folders. If you have create a Pose Library with some character poses, and then you create a watch folder, the whole Pose Library Browser ceases to work. This problem was already present in previous versions when the watch folders were added, and it was never fixed. I've added some screenshots with the browser working and after i connect a watch folder. Even the icons are gone. weird as hell By the way, this problem was already reported via support ticket but there was no solution found. 😞
