    the first episode of season 3 was great. Also the new Homepage looks very clean and has a bunch of tutorials.

    Hi, read the Octane Render Help Manual topic: HDRI / Texture Environment. Make sure you load the HDRI into the right slot. Delete your HDRI you added. click on the black thump into the Octane Sky properties and than you are into the right HDRI slot. load the HDRI image there.

    when you restart Cinema 4D a window will pop out that ask you to send the crash report. On the other hand maybe try to update the GFX Driver

    Hello Artists ACES here ACES there..... Not every Software and Renderer supports ACES and ACEScg yet but I think it will change the Rendering, colorgrading and post workflow. This is a great side to see and learn what colorgrading and ACES is. https://chrisbrejon.com/cg-cinematography/ What are your experience with ACES and ACEScg? Do you start using it? What you think about? best Salvatore

    Hi, first the Render settings in Corona Render works best with default Settings. Renders from the VPR are not the final resolution. the only way to save the full resolution is to render it in Picture viewer in Cinema 4D. Also the viewport render has not the final quality and resolution. When a corona render needs to much time its not a slow render. It is the wrong material setting. My tip is check your materials settings. Corona Render is very exactly on material settings, so you have to know how to setup materials correctly.

    Hi, you can add a Plugin Folder into the Cinema 4D mainfolder it will work. Some Plugins has to be installed into the system pluginfolder.

    It seems strange to me that it should be an SSD issue, but I'm happy that it works now

    yes, that is true. I think the complexity and form of the model defines the best way to model it. as long the topo is cleen is all good.

    Hi and welcome. if the crash is from C4D try to send a crash report to MAXON. But it is not usual that the XPresso tag couse a crash and needs to restart the whole system. There must be another issue on your PC. Hope that helps

    the downside by use only subdivition modelling is that you will create unessesary polycount in some model parts. Sometime you don't need on every part of the model high polycount. In some cases the use of a bevel is better. New Renderer even support bevel and subdivision on renderbase. See the round edges Node. of course the round edge Node is limited but in some cases it is enough. also the render based Subdivision in redshift is very good. on the ring model above the bevel is way to big and in some parts to smooth.

    well this is an issue that sometime happen and sometime not. It is hard to say what is the reason for that. I can run the IPR and the Materials loads correct. But what can happen also is that the mesh with all materials turns black into the viewport. I think it is one of the GPU Renderer downside thing.

    Hi, I think this could be something for Set Driver / Set Driven function. Add a Light and Align to Spline. set the Position as Set Driver and the Light Colortemp to set driver. It works on a 90 degree Arc. Maybe you have to combine two range Mapper for the 180 degree Arc. But this is how I would try it.

    Hi, 60s save time is not that bad if you use xRefs. Just to compare some 3DSMax files needs 10 to 15 min to save 😄

    Hi, I'm not sure if I understand your port correctly. If you export the file as Alembic out of Cinema 4D and reimport it, I think you can't add effector. As far I understand alembic it is a point cache system. So it saves the vertex positions and bake it into the file.

    Good old times. My first contact with 3D was 1998. First Bryce 2. Cinema 4D since release 8. I also joined the C4DCafe in the 3DKiwi times. Now I'm 42 and I stopped to count, 42 is the answer to everything so I will stay 42 😄

    Hi, make sure your glass has no diffuse color ( turn to black or 0) try to use thin glass no refraction. Hope that helps

    Hi since the Corona Render Version 6 you don't use lightmaterial for HDRI. The Corona Sky tag has a HDRI loader in. Hope that helps

    Hi, my name is Salvatore Coco. I was a member of C4DCafe from the beggining (3DKiwi Days) I lost the focus to the Forum for a very very long time. I tryed to join last year and something didn't work. I try it today again and o it works. I'm happy to be back in the C4DCafe. Some words about me. Since 3 years I work as a Senior 3D Artist at Raumgleiter in Switzerland. In the Office we work with 3DSMax. I also used Max for some time at home and lost the focus a bit from Cinema 4D. But now I'm back to Cinema 4D again at home. Today I use Cinema 4D and Redshift as bundle and it is great to come back to Cinema 4D. It was like a coming home. I'm looking forward to be again a part of the C4DCafe Best Salvatore
