Dave replied to the discussion Octane or Redshift? in the forum Redshift – Forum 6 weeks ago
All 3 are very capable renderers, and all 3 work in very similar ways, so you should be able to go from one to the other pretty easiliy if you ever needed to.
Here’s a few reasons I switched to Redshift:
1. It’s just as fast (if not faster in some cases) as Octane.
2. It’s the most popular and widely used Renderer for Cinema 4D at studios around…

Bullet Tag dynamics vs. Simulation Tag dynamics
Hi Joanna, the bullet solver is the older legacy simulation system in Cinema 4D. It was often very slow, unstable and hard to work with (especially for cloth and soft body simulations).
The new system is much better, it utilizes your GPU so it can simulate much much faster. The new unified system also allows interaction between cloth, soft…

label /emboss is appearing on both sides of glass/ transparent material
Hi Jesse, flat projection projects straight through your object which is why it appears in reverse on the back. The easiest way to fix this is to select only the faces you want the label to appear on and using a selection tag limit the projection to just that area. We actually go through this exact problem in this…

Boolean Issues - text into object
Hey Nick, welcome aboard and thanks for sending over your project file.
If you take a look at your text with the subdiv surface, its a bit of a mess because the underlying text geometry is not even
It might be better to put the text into a REMESH to make it cleaner.
But in this case Im not sure why you’d need the Subdivision surface at all, if…

Thanks for that Alena.
I’ve done a test scene that I’ll send over via email where I’ve made the Pearls Rigid Bodies and connected them (with dynamic connectors) to the String (which I’ve made Cloth Dynamic) which seems to work well.
Having chains will add a layer of complexity though, you’ll need to make each chain link a dynamic body and make…

Hi Alena, that sounds like an interesting one!
You could potentially stick it to a spline or plane and make it dynamic with a bit of turbulence.
Do you have a chain model I could use to set up an example for you?
