prowl

flow path? isn’t that exactly what 2 of the examples in the scenes do? The letters and the car you can probably use the texture field to emit a texture. I am not in front of my computer to check

Anyone else with a space mouse on a Mac? Not working on 2024... despite the recent new Maxon/3d Connexion driver,

Anyone know how to change the Transform gizmo text appearance that pops up in the gizmo when you move / rotate / scale. It's sometimes in impossible to see. I can't find the Scheme / colour / background or anything in the HUD Ideally one of these: Make it bigger. Move it out of the way Change the Font Change the background? Often it's impossible to see against the background image - I couldn't find what that Gizmo helper might relate to in the custom scheme editor.

Sigh. Why. Less moaning more actual constructive discussion. This place is already turning into a unprofessional whinging Facebook group or worse, CGTalk.

"Not a political Post" ... And yet it clearly is... with no actual point. Clearly you don't have the understanding or skill to use nodes. There freaking tonnes of plugins. Off you pop now you child.

We need someone with Immediate availability for next week Very good C4D experience Has Kit to handle a large Multulayered Project file Important - Sketch and Toon Experience. After effects ( just to Pixellate the clean rendered scene ) We are Taking a Pixel art cityscape and turning it into 3d. It's about 60% complete. either take over my project files Completely ( I am sick, kids are sick. Wife away on business! ) or Refine buildings as shown below in city blocks and I'll push on with the animation when I can. Characters are done and are flat images on planes NOT 3d. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qqgzt6grp2swicb/TruckDozer.mp4?dl=0

Don't be ridiculous. The memory foot print of Max ( and to a lesser extent Maya ) is huge. And the way that the Ram and VRam is accessed means it's super inefficient. A single App is way more productive. So I am pretty sure you cannot copy and paste between instances of Max at all. You have to save a what you want and merge it in. Maya you can copy and paste between instances. But there is a clipboard size limit and it crashes more often than it works on larger scenes. I've copied 10gb scenes with C4D with no issues at all. "If Max Crashes" - I like your optimism. I get that YOU may have a use case for long single threaded tasks.... but that say more about the prehistoric nature of Max's core ( coming from someone that used to love it )

Certainly interesting. But it's only industry standard for some industries! I've only every been given 8/10 Maya files in 20 years. And I work in TV/Commercial/Music Video/Corporate and some games! Sure I know its use a lot in Film and of course other places - but I don't often see it. C4D is way more used for me. I've been asked about 3DS which I started on and won't touch with a bargepole now days it's horrible in every respect UI wise. And of course the Killer thing for me is that both Maya and 3DS can only open ONE file at a time! It's insane. Is it 1995? Maya Indie Stipulations - not sue how they police this! Your annual gross revenue from creative work must be less than GBP 80,000. You may not use the license on any project valued over $100,000 USD. Only one license subscription can be used per user or organization As for blender. It's very nice. Wouldn't use it commercially I suspect... Because not one company in the 100+ I have worked for in 20 years ever has every used it.

Ah ok. The thing I REALLY don't like is that I can't dock the Add nodes dialog. Can only double click to have it floating. That's really not C4D UI Standard. ***EDIT*** Ignore me... I am an idiot the dialog is actually a pop up version of the new Asset manager ( nodes tab ) so all is awesome again. I can just dock that into the Scene editor.

See ya. Boring conversation anyway.

Can we actually move node / Scene manage objects interactively in the viewport yet? Until that happens it’s mostly pointless. I can see the point of release these tech previews to get people involved and used to them - but until they are fully usable they are not RELEASE production usable features and there is a disappointing lack of those in this release.

I’ve said this before I really hope this new core, nodes , and Red giant merger and redshift acquisition are will lead to making a MAXON Compositor.

I am selling one of my R21 Studio Licences. A big Project has completed. £3300 New - selling for £2000. I’ll cover the Transfer fee. MAXON have confirmed you’ll be able to R23 in September/October for a fair amount, presuming they are keeping the same Number parity for S and R. Thanks.
