Paintball Effect in C4D – Standard Renderer Setup

Create a splatter-style paintball simulation using dynamics and vertex maps in Cinema 4D—ideal for adding organic, animated effects to your scenes.

In this first part, you’ll build the core of the paintball effect in Cinema 4D. Learn how to simulate paintball projectiles with rigid body dynamics and trigger surface splatters using vertex maps. This setup forms the foundation for both Standard and Octane rendering workflows.
