thank you!

Thank you fro creating the software and programming. Very complex yet there is such opportunity to create something with Maxon. Very happy to have the Annual subscription for the first time.

Thank you for the great tutorial! I'm having problems with inflating. I first deflate my object and then I want it to float and balloon to original shape. Ballooning is making it all round and looking like a cloth anymore (no folds or wrinkles). I need my object to be inflated from deflated state. Thank you!

A very, very good hint; success reminds me once again of this terrible and irritating inconvenience.

i would love to know how to do the neon colors in some areas like in the thumbnail

please add proper visualisation on selections, we all know the workarounds -and they shouldnt be there in the first place

this really should not be the users' responsibilities to do such "workaround"... come on . look at houdini, just a click and you can visulize any selection including vertices/polygons/edges/vector

You are introducing us to incredible skills and even providing training on top of that. My transition from Maya to Cinema 4D was quite difficult, but I can say it went well thanks to you. Thank you so much.

This entire software is built on workarounds

As someone using C4D since the late 90's, I fully agree with the existing comments. Why do we need a QuickTip for this as a workaround? I am dealing with Polygon Selections a lot and I don't like that there is no preview solution to show all the existing different selections at once or maybe with some selection window that lists all selections with some checkbox/eye view tool. And even here, I don't think it needs a material to preview it. --- The whole process and selections itself could be done more efficient. Even think about Selections as a Deformer/Subobject. Imagine what possibilities this could hold, especially when it comes to transfer selections, backup selections, storing multiple different selections on one object and simple turning them on and off if they are inside an object and not on the object itself. Not even starting how well it could work with Hairs, Particles, etc. Warm greetings to the dev team and happy new year, Maxon.

My biggest gripe is that we cannot manually paint selection maps on procedural objects. This really needs addressing.

But you are Maxon... can't you just implement the feature instead of teaching us a little "trick"...? The complete lack of innovation and development is what's forcing me (against my will) to Blender! Sadly C4D is just not worth the price anymore

Nice quicktip! Why hasn't the preview of selection tags on procedural objects been implemented yet? Is it not possible? I often use a vertex map to visualize fields on an object, so why not a selection tag? Also, why do you use a standard material, wouldn't this also work with a RS material?

Wow wow wow. Moar Nodes!!! Thank you team.

Amazing

I really appreciate what Dom does but hes a league of his own. Please, pack these nodes into modifiers like in XP. Nobody is using scene nodes in c4d and nobody will till they become extremely user friendly. Using houdini at this point, is way easier.

The links I receive via email from all these livestreams give me a "Bad request - Invalid URL" message. Awesome videos though!

so good, thank you!

alot of thanksssssssssss You are a wonderful woman am very happy with your explanation and abbreviations. I am impressed by you

Nice only for maxon one subscriptions

I tried my "smoke" to look like yours, and I couldn't... Can you share the settings and/or the file?

I've learned so much! Thank you both so much. I love following along and that Distance node, wow, I never knew we could do that.

Jeez... I've struggled with multiple grid datasets in custom volumes for a long time. I had no idea that the actual name of the Volume Object could define the grid name. This is a brilliant idea, but I can't find it documented anywhere in the official Cinema 4D documentation? And isn't it quite a new thing for naming to drive functionality in C4D? So please, please do a tutorial on any other undocumented functionality where object naming can play a part - I feel that I could suddenly be missing out on important stuff... 🙂

lovely

This is exactly what i needed ! Thanks !

Hey guys! Thanks for the tutorial, it was fun 🔥 I was wondering if the combo Polygon Selection + Vertex Map works also in the older versions of Cinema 4D? Tried it a couple of times in C4D 2024 (activating Use Fields) but I guess it doesn't like what I'm trying to do :D Anyways, thanks a lot!

Clear and into the point thank you <3

That's cool. So you could bring multiple cache files into one project? Does it update if you update the file that it references?

can this be made into a relative path via the save projects with assets command or manually if I erase the path and leave just the vdb name (similar to a material texture)? I am asking because I would like to know if this would be possible to use on a render farm where the path changes from windows pathing to linux or just a different drive letter.

Nice one, happy new year!

How did u create teh smoke? your setup hirachy doesn't show any smoke objects in the volume

Thank you for these fantastic tutorials.

now with the new particle system.. I think using the particle Mesh emitter is the way to go now.. Under Mesh Emitter it accepts both Polygon selection and Vertex Map Selection.

Great knowledge shared, amazing work. I'm pretty sure I've met you at C4DAPT many years ago!

This was an amazing series, please do it again together. Jess, I just love the way you explain you technics, it makes so much sense. Thank you so much!

Well mines doesnt have any righing tags option.. what do i do than?

3:39 Maxon made an Auto Create checkbox, but it doesn't work. So we're going to do it manually . That makes so much sense.

Why there is no bike Rigging in cinema4D Tutorial on entire youtube channel. Plz make one.

Very nice workflow Jess, great tut!

You should have told us how we could render the C4D Lite files from AE. Specifically, how to speed up the rendering process.

When I try add the backdrop asset i get nothing show up in my viewport. The gimbal displays but no element. There also is no attributes displaying for the object. Any idea's as to why?

Thank you Elly!!!

1:23:40 most funny scene🤣🤣

Thanks Alot

thank you

It's been a while since auto sampling hasn’t been doing a good job. It should get some more attention, in my opinion. It’s a pain in the neck tweaking those settings, especially when it could be fully automated. Come on, Maxon, let’s hire more people to make it great!

Very nice! Its seems like most of the videos are soft body, cloth and particles presentations these days. Would like to request some motion graphics animation presentations near future. Thank you.

But how to hide it also in render?

How do i ungroup all nulls in a project?
