It's good to see C4D finally getting some more improvements.

[@silverstuff5621]

Can you please make tutorials on basic topology rules, common mistakes beginners do and how to correct, convert bad topology to good topology etc. Love your tutorials.

[@polygonpen]

Thank you very much for the suggestion!

[@neoqueto]

I'm happy that C4D 2024 focused on optimizations. 2024.1 even has new rigid body optimizations. And the new normal editing finally lets us model without necessarily relying on subdiv to have our meshes look decent.

[@I3ra]

Been waiting so long for the vertex normal tool for game and VR assets, very cool.

[@skypc6578]

Thank you sir for updating us

[@motiondesignberlin10243]

Would be awesome, if C4D could execute functions like "extrude" or "inset" immediately. If you hit a shortcut inside Blender you don`t have to add another click to extrude for example.

[@neoqueto]

Once you have the tool selected you just operate with the mouse but if you want to switch between tools quickly then that could be useful. Personally I don't really care but it does reduce mouse clicks. To be honest I mostly extrude with Ctrl+drag anyway.

[@kamolhakim4693]

Thank you

[@orphydiancg7759]

Don't think of finding any good use of that new Brush tool mode - Surface Smear?

[@redaboucetta1846]

Wait ….how u jump quiqly in point edge face mode ? Custom short cut .?

[@polygonpen]

Yeah, I assigned 1 to points, 2 to Edges, 3 to polygons and 4 to model mode, the shortcuts makes it amazingly faster to model.

[@redaboucetta1846]

i see thank you @@polygonpen

[@vi8799]

Sadly c4d doesn’t have indie license.

[@GiorgiAkhalaia]

Very useful tools

[@orphydiancg7759]

the new projection deformer is also worth reviewing

[@olutoyese]

Thank You!

[@i20010]

Why do you need to manually select polygons to calculate normals? Cant you select the whole object? Seems like a lot of tedious work for that. Thanks!

[@polygonpen]

It is still early to find the best workflow right now, this tool is still new so there might be better and faster ways.

[@polystormstudio]

is there a way to hide the poly selection while editing normals? It makes it hard to see.

[@polygonpen]

Yeah, select polygons, then go to selection and click on hide unselected or visa versa.

[@Khameesrahbani]

man you are the best

[@polygonpen]

Thank you!

[@cailenced]

Sadly, 2024 crashed on two pc's i tested about ten times in 20 Minutes. Gonna wait for a few fixes. Newest redshift didnt find textures on networkdrives as well. 23.3 works perfectly fine.

[@Ricardo-de9ju]

Would be the VAMP the equivalent of Maya transfer attributes?

[@polygonpen]

Yes, very similar.

[@UG3DBoss-54]

Definitely about time C4D getting some good love… lol…. Also, kind of striking how C4D interface looks very similar to Blender

[@GranzDesign]

you mean blender look similar to c4d

[@robsonhenrique4346]

Quando uso a ferramenta caneta poligonal, e tento criar um quadrado, quando clico pra fechar a malha tudo desaparece da cena, acho que apertei em alguma configuração errada

[@bitjame4195]

Yeah, it's a needed update! I like it. Question about Redshift, so is it free in the new version of Cinema4d?

[@polygonpen]

No, they are separate, if you buy Maxon One, you will get everything.

[@BirkanDemir]

paylaşım için teşekkürler... aksandan yakaladım.. yanılmıyorsam türksünüz hocam..

[@polygonpen]

Teşekkürler, evet Türküm.

[@marcosmanilla9383]

Awesome improvements!!! I love Cinema 4D but snapping tooll still sucks!!

[@ckoch4754]

why does the snapping tool suck?

[@AK81-v3k]

Finally Maxon invented GATOR! :)

[@ARTM3R_]

Hello friend, help me understand how to make small dots on a transparent material (silicone). I made a transparent case for iphone, but I can’t add these small dots on top of the transparent material that every silicone case has. I would be very grateful. I'm tired of searching for information dishonestly. Thank you.

[@polygonpen]

Hey, please join the Discord and ask the question with pictures, I am sure we can help you there!

[@romulocastilho6506]

a unica coisa que eu achei ruim e a cor dos modelos brancos eu mudo a cor pra cinza escuro

[@skypc6578]

really amazing updates. now I'm a blender user🥰 so i want these updates in blender also

[@Porus3D]

Same. HardOps brings some of these tools though i've never tried it.

[@tunadincer]

İnanılmaz!!!

[@Murathanaksoz]

Eline , emeğine sağlık. Bu 2024 versiyonda "linear velocity threshold" sorununu çözdüler mi ? Biliyor musun ? Sorun da şuydu. Simülasyonu bake ettiğinde "linear velo. threshold" değerini eğer key ile büyütüp küçülttüysen bake'de bunun etkisini göremiyordun. ( çok saçma simülasyonu doğrudan etkileyen parametrenin bake'de deaktif olması )

[@polygonpen]

Teşekkürler ama konuya çok uzağım, bayadır similasyon işlerine bakmadım.

[@smartkrafter2853]

Cool

[@mlonster]

..we need a 'select similar' polygon tool..

[@neoqueto]

Vonc Suite Selections. Great extension. But should be built-in.

[@mlonster]

@@neoqueto Agree totally! Vonc is great but integrated and more complete, precise would be a hoot. Ability to add selections, select more than one poly, etc.

[@neoqueto]

@@mlonster that said, I wish Blender had Phong selection ;)

[@mlonster]

@@neoqueto Not too familiar with Blender but “Select Linked Flat Faces” maybe?!..

[@shawnastrom]

Awesome stuff!

[@polygonpen]

Thank you Shawn!

[@AngBryan]

Holy shit

[@Bollywoodclub919]

Learn Hindi dubbed pls ❤❤

[@ChaosProwler]

C4d is just more like Blender, These features Blender has it years...😂
