Freemorpheme

I wondered why everything I rendered had the Jolly Roger in it 🙂 I have done some troubleshooting and can confirm it is certainly my fault, although what I have done is not yet clear. Maybe the gods of 3D are telling me to uninstall R20 and start learning this node thing everyone talks about. Thank you all.

'serial has expired' error message

That's what I thought. Must be user error somewhere then... thanks

Hi there - can I use my R20 install with a MyMaxon account? Work have just sent through my new login, but all that has happened is that my beloved R20 install with my million plugins etc has now ceased to operate. Is this expected behaviour?

Ah I see what you mean. No, I was careful with the framerates, which means it must be something introduced in the original file. I'll have to go back and check the c4d file.

I wanted to make something that people at my work would like, so I make a little scene with easter eggs in that they would recognise. I wanted to build it around this little rabbit model that we used for a big campaign and keeps getting reused for this and that. I'm not sure about the camera work, I tried to keep it quite simple.

Happy to hear critique, although I cant possibly change it any more, unless you spot something REALLY broken.

Here is almost the final result of my labours making this vending machine animation, something that represents about a year's work in really trying to get to grips with modelling, unwrapping, texturing and rendering. Thanks to everyone who helped me, including the usual suspects @DasFrodo, @Cerbera, @Igor, The Artist Formally Known As @C4DS and @bezo. Dotty_Main_1_lowish.mp4

I am surprised that MAXON dont have more direct involvement with the Cafe. A community centre where you can come and get direct help with a problem, get the news, maybe a giveaway, a competition, a route to speak to the bigwigs would surely be worth its weight in gold to a product like C4D. Literally the only reason I am a C4D user is because of the Cafe, and because you could get help from Nigel (sometimes pretty acerbic help, but you learned to enjoy that pretty quickly). Now you can pretty much rely on Cafe mods and regulars to help with problems in a way you simply can't with any other software. I wish Substance had a place like this, or Octane, or any Adobe product, you name it. Maybe I have missed something and there is already an arrangement? We are so close - I am posting just below Rick and Dave themselves and this kind of engagement is great, long may it continue.

The only video on the MAXON YouTube channel seems to be broken. So I have no idea what has happened.

Lots of people feel making monthly car payments is the best way, dont they? Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person who owns their own car. Although I might consider it if every September the car company replaced it with one that was better and more valuable.

I didnt get much from the video, can anyone explain what this does?

What is this mystery site you speak of.

Do you plan out the topology first? Plan the loops and the flow and where the 5-sided poles will go? Or do you dig in and fix things later?

That's not Queen Victoria. That's Queen Anne.

There is a real illustrated look to the gold detailing that is interesting.

This looks amazing, please consider recording your workflow as tutorials for those of us new to the game.

Thank you. Can you explain how it works, and why my attempt doesnt work? Why do you need to put one cube in the Expresso? Why does the instance connect to the Object?

Thanks very much, but really I was trying to learn a little more about how Xpresso works. I feel like you should be able to select more than one node and add ports, that kind of thing.

Thanks, I've never used that before. My question was more of a workflow one for Xpresso really. I have looked up the list iterator but it seems pretty heavy, so I guess I will stick with my spiderweb for now.

Hi, I have been dragging all of my SDS objets into an Xpresso field and attaching them to a null with a Boolean switch on so I can turn the SDS on and off globally. This worksvery nicely. My (basic) question is, is there a way of editing more than one node at a time? If I drag in ten SDS objects, I would like to select them all at once and access the 'Enabled' switch. Then I would like to connect them all at once to my null node. Can this be done? Failing that, is there a global object for 'all SDS objects in scene' or something like that? Thanks EDIT Look at this horror, it took me ages. There must be a better way.

Can you convert an old scene easily to Corona?

What time zone are they in? EDIT -it's PDT
