importunely I have some vectors I brought in and each vector has a certain color and I don't know how to apply the selections to the new volume builder

just recently ran into this problem any threads are no longer available anybody know a solution?

Hello! Trying to reduce my scene but making any alembic in c4d is dreadfully slow. Making it in houdini is sooo quick but I would love to bring int an object from c4d That I made with Forestor. Forestor is where the problem lays I would love to make that object with forestor on it an alembic but Seems to take too long in c4d is there a way to bring those two into houdini make it alembic? Not sure what file format I could since Forestor is being cloned...fbx maybe? Might crash c4d lol

Applying a LUT with Imager_tone and any lens effects with Imager_lens does not appear to work with the newest Arnold update for C4dtoa. Even after rendering it does not work. anyway to get the post to work?

ah okay thank you!

Hello! Im in Cinema4d using Arnold with a Ryzen threadripper 2990wx 32core I dont know much about CPUS but in my new build is it worth to switch to single threading at any point? will it focus on rendering a little more? or just stay on multi threading? Using arnold has made me lose sense of render times comparing to other renderers but Arnold looks so good to switch.

I had some problems recently with R25 and arnold. What kind of stuff do you have in your scenes? I had some problems with a high res HDRI and forestor and motion blur.

I dont remember which File I uploaded if it had the HDRI in it, Had to start over basically and tried using just lights instead of a hdri granted the hdri was rather really large I really hoped it wasnt the HDRI but cannot confirm but im thinking it was the HDRI. Still dont know why just black frames take about 3 mins for a 680x480 png but mostly the only thing to change R24 or R25 seems better without HDRI...Sighhh Thank you everybody for trying to help! any updates on if I can increase any speeds I will update!

for sure! pausing sounds like the way to go. Although Idk if the scene I would consider big? and just navigating through c4d while IPR is paused or even off still seems way to slow on average. Definitely seems better with forester off but I feel like I've done similar scenes with forester and c4d didnt' chug like it does now 😞

thatll be much appreciated! and danggg!

Hello! For a while I been using Arnold because I loved the results It gave. Till recently this current project has severely slowed my my workflow. Sometimes Every click I have to wait till it loads even if its clicking to another object. Granted I know how slow Arnold is and having forestor will run my c4d slower but I feel like this is unreasonable slow. Not sure if its the versions of c4d or arnold. Ive tried the most updated arnold version and even rolled back and has bee quite the same. R25 became much slower than R24 Attached is the file im working on if anybody can open and play around in it to see if it runs smoothly I would love any tips and points to adjust any settings to help run c4d and even rendering faster! Even when I render a black frame it takes about 3-4 mins CPU or GPU. I currently have c4d using all my cores sometimes less and even if I switch to gpu rendering results are quite the same in terms of render time or slowness. Lowering LOD doesn't do anything for me. Any recommendations to what I could adjust would be great! Im still learning, criticism and tips would be greatly appreciated! https://we.tl/t-BOFxxuzyjD <---Project (Sorry for the wetransfer background just my personal photography work) PC: Nvidia 3090fe Threadripper 2990wx X399 Taichi 64gbs ram R24 and R25 Forestor Arnold Render
