What’s New in Cinema 4D 2025: Particle Update

[@squaretomato]

Dude, you're my favorite C4D Tutor. Always clear and concise, and with a sense of humor. Your work is very helpful, many thanks!

[@effectatron]

Nice Job Mario/EJ ! Been loving the Flock feature makes things so fun Keep up the great work!

[@eyedesyn]

Thanks Derek! Really appreciate the kind words! You've been hustling and digging all your content, keep it up!! And yeah flock is great - can't wait for future particle upgrades so you don't have to fake all this liquid-y stuff heh! Let's a go!!!

[@effectatron]

@@eyedesyn Thanks! Ya hooooo! I just hooked up the old Wii to play galaxy again after watching videogamedunkey. if u want some great mario content check him out. Thanks again! Loving particles!

[@studiosucis]

This is great as a general workflow, and as ever, a very useful tutorial. Maxon need to figure out the particle to particle collisions though to add real power to the system.

[@sergyxyz]

You know when a new feature is settled down into C4D when EJ makes a tutorial about it!

[@J3DMG]

Your tutorial is always awesome! 👍👍

[@MBSJQ]

Legend as always! Thank you

[@kook__seungchan]

Thank you for making this video! EJ! 🤗🤗🤗

[@eyedesyn]

Thanks for watching!l❤❤

[@shawnastrom]

Awesome video EJ! Thank you!

[@eyedesyn]

Thanks for the kind words, Shawn! It's a pleasure!

[@martinfalconer546]

Great tutorial thanks! Not as powerful as the Houdini system for sure but does make me wonder whether it's worth really diving into Houdini when C4D is bringing these features to it's more user friendly eco-system

[@ElliotRuddy]

The new follow spline feature is a game changer!

[@eyedesyn]

Absolutely! A lot of art direction potential!

[@3DBONFIRE]

🔥

[@GIBRIDQ]

look to houdini . game changer? AHAHHA

[@woosung__k]

Thank you EJ !!!! happy to play with the new Particle system!!

[@eyedesyn]

Woooosung!!!! Dude thanks so much for your comment! Can't wait to see what crazy amazing stuff you making with the new particles! Hope you and the fam are doing good!!

[@vasily3994]

awesome EJ, super helpful

[@nermeenref5589]

is it possible if we put the emitter in a volume builder somehow to get a slight feeling of fluid effect ?

[@schoolofmotion]

Check out our latest tutorial so you can do some liquidy type effects!

[@BoStanfordify]

Thank you EJ!

[@NN_86]

Thank you so much!!!!

[@schoolofmotion]

Glad you liked it!

[@nicksmith8744]

Awesome!

[@3DBONFIRE]

Amazing Tutorial 🔥🙏🏼

[@thekapust]

thanks! and awaiting some more tutorials about paricle system

[@boskbass]

what do you think about XParticles compared to the new c4d particle system?

[@eyedesyn]

I think Maxon is slowly but surely replacing the need for XParticles!

[@DenysGlagoliev]

It's the fact, but XP will still be gorgeous for a few years minimum, till Maxon implement "water" stimulation (splash, tendrils, waterfall , river, ocean, cola 😅)

[@cemgulpunk]

@@eyedesyn We're getting old dude 😅

[@koichiyoshino8383]

We still need a XP along with Houdini.

[@thomasgonzales770]

Does the particle simulation come with the cinema 4d 2025 subscription or do you have to purchase it separately? Thanks!

[@schoolofmotion]

Comes with the sub!

[@bharat5194]

Great tutorial and a good update from Maxon. Next, please add a flip sim solver and we're golden!

[@bloohaus8670]

X particles seems to be more and more niche, this stuff is great for general work!

[@schoolofmotion]

Yeah, it's such a powerful update.

[@matreyia]

Where is the simulation menu in 2025? It disappeared on my version.

[@joedidathing]

follow spline is nice, used to do this by putting a spline into a field force, but that workflow was very annoying

[@JoshFryer]

What the flock?! The sand part was mesmerizing. 😵

[@BenDaleTV]

At what point do we go ahead and dive right in (Copy n paste multiple ti mes)

[@PeterDedulle]

Great!

[@theshubhamdhage]

I’m a blender user but really wants to try c4d at some point. Its super expensive for me rn. Amazing tutoring btw 👏

[@robertdouble559]

mega

[@TheLillianYoung]

Very cool result, EJ! Quick question: At 22:29 Mine is just white. Is there a reason for that? I'm a SOM All-Access member, so maybe it's best to get assistance there? Thanks!

[@jamesdawe]

Thanks for this brilliant breakdown AJ. Can I ask, where you sourced your shiny stones? JD

[@Joeherman]

"Barfing Particles" Good one! 😂

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

Is there still a way to substitute objects for particles?

[@schoolofmotion]

Mesh emitter I think is what you're looking for!

[@ImARTiiFICIAL]

So good!

[@mohamedreda1545]

thanks ❤❤❤❤

[@schoolofmotion]

Love seeing the ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jbmocean399]

Thanks EJ, this is great... I'm sensing you're a bit of a Harry Potter fan, not sure why, it's just a feeling I've got :D

[@Vmshipe]

I would love to see another particle tutorial on how you would make water utilizing this new workflow.

[@SoupcatMan]

I tried and it's not great for particle simulation yet. You're better off using pyro

[@JunelCarreon]

Hi, I've seen in this scene but in that one I created the particles DISAPPREARING, someone can help me? They staid fixed in the position but after some frames they'll dissapear. It's happening also in this video if you see it closely

[@ComAnth]

Is this for C4D Pro or can this be accomplished in Lite?

[@schoolofmotion]

Particles are not in lite

[@CodingWithLewis]

So excited to use this. Glad I don't have to buy x particles lol

[@lolandsz]

you still kinda have to, xparticles is king

[@psclip3309]

Particle with custom shape ?

[@schoolofmotion]

You can use a Mesh Emitter!

[@yofi2614]

Can someone please tell me if it's worth even starting to learn it considering all the AI evolvement?

[@therealkevinleee]

yes cause youre gonna get out classed by someone who knows AI and c4d

[@rishirajmitra2017]

I dunno if its me but the performance is not the best in the M1 Chipsets of Mac. Although I can't wait to be more into it.

[@robertdouble559]

and that surprises you? get a real computer.

[@vfxgurdeep]

🔥

[@charlesdarwin3893]

what's more crazy is i just switched to blender and am never coming back.

[@robertdouble559]

Their time-warp pipe is a little slower than Autodesk's. Seems like they're slowly learning from the masters of misreading their calendar!

[@albertpuppymaster671]

Rip the Xparticles man.

[@therealkevinleee]

they still cant get viscosity down

[@Mr.Indiyaah]

Can C4D be better than Houdini?

[@eyedesyn]

Houdini is on another tier! That being said, you are able to do similar things Houdini can with a fraction of the effort, but Houdini is the cream of the crop when it comes to making incredible simulations. It's power is just on another level!!

[@robertdouble559]

Distant 3rd or 4th at best, after Houdini and TyFlow

[@Ruan3D]

Nothing gets even close to Houdini - it's the only software for doing serious simulations.

[@Mr.Indiyaah]

@@Ruan3D embergen, liquigen..?

[@GIBRIDQ]

@@Mr.Indiyaah no

[@cemgulpunk]

47:52 this is smooth 🔥

[@neoqueto]

youtube compression DID NOT like this video lol

[@xpez9694]

all of this reminds me of x particles 1.5

[@yedaoctopus114]

byebye X particles

[@DmitryDmitrov]

если бы я мог поставить вам 200 likes я бы это сделал. продолжайте это делать.

[@BenDaleTV]

OK, I bet you can't build a pile of sand with this can you ??

[@Anonymous-cn6zl]

Who is this sexy lad?

[@amstrad79b]

ΗΑΗΑΗΑΗΑΗΑΗΑΗΑ 666,666,666 particles! 😆

[@schoolofmotion]

😇😇😇😇

[@danherzl]

Geometry Nodes manda abraços

[@mrmachine5632]

weak release lets not pretend

[@havrman]

just particles? maxon seriously? where is the modeling tools update? where is the dimension tool update? where is the cloth simulation tools update?

[@AlexanderMinaevFast]

Where liquid? Where ocean surface? Wherer liquid splash? How to make honey, chocolate, milk? 😡😡😡

[@heraxvot6609]

Use software for simulation Houdini or realflow . Don’t cry
