yeah if you want AD like adoption do what they and Avid did.. get it into the classroom!.. get it into the hands of many… you will then Grow your user base.. DUH…! come on Maxon.. be just a “tiny bit less greedy!” and you will grow much faster.

I would like to present you totally new way to create sky lighting mainly for arch-viz exterior usage but it is good for interiors too because it has some specific options. Advanced Sky for Cinema 4D : Cloudy sky simulation with soft transition from clear to cloudy sky included all three PRG, Hosek Wilkie and Preetham models Sun height, Sky rotation with individual HDRI map rotation connected to global Sky horizontal rotation Many options to change color of Sky models and HDRI maps like temperature, tint, saturation, exposure, hue... Individual control for Sun parameters Ground diffusion light which can improve brightness of polygons that are towards ground with included GI ( so it looks real not flat ) Horizon maps with included alpha - they can be scaled, moved with repeating effect Special ground plane for HDRI maps which doesn't have included ground - fully customizable PRG light color compensation to looks the same as Hosek-Wilkie HDRI's mixing - you can mix two HDR maps using different options for them ! Camera Exposure and White Point was additionally added to have better control on scene colors. HDRI reflection only object for creating custom reflections. It can be scaled by different ways and customized with color corrections. Tinting for all HDRI maps is now available. It fully works with other color corrections. D65 color correction as option was added to all HDRI maps. This is workaround for C4D issue while using ACEScg color space - HDRI maps looks wrong by default. Special Horizon reflection only map with cast shadow option. Advanced tabs for controlling Reflection and GI impact. Reset color option for individual Ground and Tint corrections. Extended parameters which works above original 100% to create specific effects like saturation, color corrections. Available : https://archviz4d.gumroad.com/l/pdmwo Self-explanation manual :

Only my guesses, but I think that could be because that feature is primarily meant to be used with spline sketch to project guide splies directly onto the model where they are probably most helpful, which isn't possible with parametric splines (or at least not without deformer help etc). But may also be something to do with RM needing actual points to work with rather than a real-time mathematically generated procedural object ? What are we like hey ? 2 am on Xmas day, and both of us are here ! All my lot have gone to bed, but night owls don't sleep much I guess, or at least not now ! 🙂 Season's best to you HP... CBR
