I started as a Maya artist about 20 years ago working on it for about 6 years, I did a LOT of work on it, from technical to artistic stuff, I learned it inside and out. Then 3Ds Max for over 10 years I also did a gigantic amount of work with it. And then a mix of many more applications including C4D, UNREAL engine, and others for the last 6-7 years (I know, the math doesn't seem to work here). Always mixing all of them depending on the projects. I never stopped loving Maya though, and I never liked C4D for many years, UNTIL TODAY when I watched this video. I couldn't believe how much it has advanced, in every way. The rigging process is as good as Maya's. I'll continue watching the rest of the rigging videos, I am sure I'll get all the info that I need to rig the characters and objects that I am rigging right now. Thank you for sharing all this information. My thoughts have drastically changed about C4D. What a great piece of software.

Hi Javier, thanks for your note. It is interesting to read your experience. Cinema 4D has long been justifiably known as an incredible tool for motion graphics, however its world class rigging tools have been overlooked. Many of them have existed for quite some time (some are more recent). One of the reasons I was inclined to make this series was to demonstrate how powerful the rigging toolset is. I am glad it has succeeded in your case. Cheers, Joe.

I had the same "undo bug" at the 47 min mark as I was following along because I had made the animation along with you. Still not sure why it happened but I guess the lesson is not to start adding animation frames until you're done rigging!
@McRibs Жыл бұрын
the condensed answer is that when you create a key frame it is recoding PSR data for the object. If the object is out on its own, the PSR is global PSR. If the object is the child of a null or another object, the PSR is in reference to the parent. When he created the null after recoding the keyframe, it changed the PSR of that keyframe from global to in reference of the parent. so it moved the bone to the correct PSR in reference to the null. When he hit CTRL z it was resetting the item based on the recorded PSR.

Does Cinema 4d have file referencing? Maya has file referencing which is useful for characters. The idea is to make a character in one file and then reference it in a separate scene file. That way trigger can work on the character rig file and update it while the animator is working on the animation. That way when the animator finds a limitation or bug, they can just have the rigger update it, and then they will continue in their scene when it is done without having to start over by re-importing the character rig.
@Joeherman2 жыл бұрын
Yes. That is a good question, and it is an important part of the rigging process. In cinema 4D, They are called X-Refs.

First of all, thank you Maxon and Joe for all this info :) Now, I'm having this issue I was hoping you could help me with, I watched the other parts to see if I could find an answer there but without much luck. The thing is: I want to correct some skinning, and to do so it's really helpful to have the character in certain poses, so I animated the bones going into said poses. However I can only see those poses when I'm in object mode, as soon as I go into vertex mode, to select vertexes and use the Weight Manager commands, the mesh goes back to the original pose (ignoring the bones), and I can't see which vertexes I want to correct... Does this make sense? I've seen videos of other people do this, so I'm guessing it's some hidden setting I'm not seeing... Or maybe I'm imagining things heh... Either way, thanks again!

Hello Joao. Thank you for your nice comment and apologies for the delay in getting back to you. This can easily be done with one of the deformers called the "correction" deformer. Look it up and you will find that it does exactly what you are asking. Cheers, Joe.

@@Joeherman Hello Joe, no problem, and thank you for replying! In the meantime I found the solution to my problem. In case anyone runs into this aswell: In the viewport definitions (Shift+V), there's a "Deformed Editing" checkbox that allows you to go into point/edges/polygon view and maintain your character animated/posed :) Either way, I'll also be checking the solution you propose Joe.
