Cinema 4D Tutorial: Soft Body Dynamic Ropes

In this tutorial I'll show you how to use soft body dynamics on your splines to create some great organic rope animations. Huge shout out to Alessandro Boncio for his help on this!

Very cool tips - thanks!

[@drewnix7201]

Very nice tutorial. I never thought to try soft bodies with splines. Much more control than spline dynamics tag. Thank you

[@alexplaza4739]

Thanks!! great tutorial

[@oxygencube]

Excellent, Thankyou!

[@verenawut6753]

Thanks for the gread video! In my c4d (R17) the attractor works a bit different and hides in the particles-section in the dropdown-menu. And when I apply the attractor to the spline, it goes all bananas, throwing the spline anywhere but in its own center. Is there a way to fix that on my version? Thanks a bunch!

Hey how did you stop pegs from falling down

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

Why is it that every time someone on KZbin does Cinema 4d dynamics (whether its cloth or soft body) they get a nice, clean looking result on the first try? When I do it I get something that twists, buckles and folds and mostly passes through the collision object.

Happens to me too, this is just something we practiced a dozen times so we figured out the quirks. Lots of different dials to play with to stabilize things, unfortunately it's never as easy as it looks!

For me, too, everything falls apart or flies away

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

@@thepixellab2011 it shouldn't be this hard.

​@@TheSchpuntovHi Ctrl+D > dynamics > Expert then increase step per frames. Once you done, manage the point number of your spline, probably are too high

[@jimbo2471]

My spline is just not falling down. Doublechecked all the settings.

the year in the name of the channel is confusing, I thought the video is from 2011, almost missed it

[@thepixellab2011]

Yeah, I started The Pixel Lab in 2011. All the Pixel Lab youtube names were taken sadly :(
