Landscape Material Tips

Discover three essential tips for creating efficient and realistic landscape materials in Cinema 4D with Redshift, focusing on plants and trees.

This tutorial covers how to optimize textures on low-resolution tree cards using the sprite node for better performance in large scenes, how to achieve natural back-lighting effects without heavy rendering costs by avoiding subsurface scattering, and how to add subtle color variation for enhanced realism using Redshift’s Color User Data and Color Layer nodes. Ideal for artists aiming to improve both visual quality and render speed in landscape projects.
