Cinema 4D Tutorial: Two Ways to Cache or Bake Particle Simulations

[@李张-n6e]

excellent tutorial even in 2024. Still save my life!

[@yeveni]

Perfect! This worked, I was trying to cache dynamic objects from the emitter and it still works in 2023. Just a tiny issues was that when my cloned object is inside a subdivision surface, the dynamics didn't work, but by removing and adding the SDS as the parent of the cloner it totally works 👌

[@MrMadvillan]

good call and thanks for the update.

[@dovic2588]

Bro, you're a life saver. My Arnold couldn't render the emitted objects in my render queue, even though it could render in IPR. So, the second trick with the Cloner actually works like magic.

[@thepixellab2011]

Glad it helped!!

[@worem2192]

I had to render 3 times my scene because of random particle emitter, never again with this knowledge, you just saved me a lot of time, thanks

[@thepixellab2011]

Glad I could help!

[@RadRost]

Amazing! This just saved my day!

[@xllcc8501]

That's impressive. Never thought this way. Thank you

[@aspirante.a.vagabundo]

Thanks again! I could never get to those tips without your help.

[@greentokyo]

Thanks! The second method totally solved the problem with octane not showing particles being rendered!

[@matthewpaquette]

This was huge! Thank you!

[@albancontrepois]

Very well explained thanks mate

[@vkipnistube]

your advice saved my life, thanks a lot!

[@EffingtonCouldBe]

Would this approach apply to C4d version 2023? I see a "cache tool" under Simulate dropdown, but I'm lost after that. ☺

[@Andriuha49378]

Thank you, what a great and quick solution!

[@milindachandrarathne8076]

Very useful tutorial. Thanks!

[@KrissLafay]

For those who need to export GLTF : 1. Export the baked sequence in a file with mograph cache (Mograph bake on cloner > Choose folder > Export cache to file) 2. Alembic instant the Cloner (before playing sequence or it's bug) 3. Profit

[@HellaBAD]

Hi- I'm having trouble with this. Everything seems to work fine until the step where I need to save out the alembic. I've tried many of the menu items like "Bake as Alembic" and "Bake as Alembic + Delete", but it just creates an Alembic Null and none of the geometry is saved or editable - any chance do you have a link to a KZbin video or a clearer tutorial for this?

[@ColinBrain]

One thing I was having trouble overcoming was emitting objects with dynamics and then wanting to bake a specific frame into individual editable objects but any time I tried to convert anything into editable it reset the emitter/dynamics. The cloner tool work around worked a treat. Thanks!!

[@RadRost]

Had same trouble, this video solved it.

[@blancoyred6392]

Just wat I needed. Thanks!

[@romangulyaev2383]

Ty very much! The second way enabled me to use emitter object + dynamics (rigid body\collider) in e3d.

[@Rivental]

Thank you so mutch!

[@TOP2BOXFarsi]

Perfect Dude 😍👌🌺🌺

[@artkiko4460]

So Helpful. Thank you!

[@DanielLuzster]

Really handy work around, thanks!

[@Lawrence00000]

Thanks heaps dude saved my project :)

[@vid828]

Serioulsy helpful

[@hamatoioshi]

I love you man!

[@nemozneveci5352]

Thank you!

[@jesstrang5085]

Great tutorial! Too bad it did not explain how to convert the emitter and clones to keyframes....

[@pedrogarciapintos7317]

genious

[@OzivandoFernandes]

Thaaaaank you, man!!

[@canoksas2979]

ur awesome ty!

[@spss33]

Thanks dude!Helps a lot!!!!

[@WalrusesAreTheOne]

for some reason the animation doesn't stick when I export as fbx.

[@luigiperilli9791]

Molto utile! Ciao!

[@menakhovsky]

God bless you

[@canyoupleaserunfast]

the bake particles in my case didn't work at all. the cloner did though!

[@minarhossainjr]

Is there any way to slow or control speed after cache !?

[@officer088]

an how to bake the dynamics animation of the emitter to be maked editable? any thoughs?

[@TheDripGodz]

I’m going crazy man

[@leomac1829]

can i replace the particles for music notes animation ?

[@hsan.1951]

what's the reason and need for caching simulations?

[@drew_tree]

thx plab very much

[@紫砂鼠标]

非常感谢！

[@mehmetpolat6738]

thank you nice tutorial but then I save it as fbx format after merge fbx file not working

[@mindbendingcgi2113]

animation can be used as alembic .abc format not fbx

[@1000_O]

whats the point of going thru all the '' you might thought this would work but it doesn't'... ???

[@hyperinternational8186]

starts at 1:40

[@creativelabspace]

Whaaaaaat? Thanks

[@cesarzaffa3599]

How can I loop that animation?

[@Kaboombg]

Thank you!
