Bob was a jerk. (Paul on the other hand is gold)

made a little thing that allows you to colour an object based off its index in the loop. can assign a random colour as well. if the object does not equal to index, apply the default colour. sn-colour-cycle.c4d

Ι put that yesterday on the monthly DCC news thread, at the comment section

Dominik Ruckli returns with one more interesting tutorial on scenenodes creating a highly demanded feature in C4D: Growth Geometry Although it still doesn't reach the level or customization of Houdini I admire it for the level of complexity and final quality. Previous attempts making something like this lead to a dead-end due o a fail-safe built into C4D preventing cyclic reference on certain generators, before finding a useful script generating new particles on constant radius from previous particles... that proved slow on computation but Dominik Ruckli's setup is faster.

Anyone catch this one? Merk using cinema to drive an AI render. His Instagram says coming soon.

yes, also very excited to see what's coming in the next release. I believe it's maxons own new particle system. This would combine very well with an updated viewport and faster C4D in general. I would assume the viewport will be able to handle massive particle counts. Or I like to at least hope. But a new particle system sets the grounds for further simulation systems coming in the future. And perhaps one day, we could even advance to a muscle simulation system. Either way, I'm one of the believers that the future of C4D is bright and in good hands.
