Cloth & Softbody Dynamics

Explore how to create realistic fabric and softbody simulations in Cinema 4D using dynamic tags that respond naturally to forces and collisions.

This tutorial covers the essentials of Cloth and Softbody dynamics in Cinema 4D, showing how to simulate flexible, deformable surfaces such as fabrics, rubbery objects, and other soft materials. By applying Cloth or Softbody tags, adjusting physics parameters, and setting up collisions and pinning, you can achieve lifelike animations that react dynamically to gravity, wind, and other forces without manual keyframing.

These lessons are compiled as part of the Cinema 4D Essentials course – a curated collection of useful tutorials from around the web. Video credit: School of Motion.
