Hey y'all Saw a little bit of the presentation live. Does priority tag still exist?

It's really great news for those that want to create more complex systems without learning a whole new package like houdini, while having ease of use outside nodal environment. Its a smart move because nodal workflow is the way to go in 3d environment.

Have a look at embergen. Its real time

Yeah def agree.

I'm gonna speak from my own experience. I always wanted to create an advanced rig. I just managed to do that past month using Blender. I found a lot of resources to do that (its also very cheap but qualitative). If someone has a lot of experience or is tech savvy can always figure things out in any software. Every software has its strengths and weaknesses. Aside from the software., availaible resources also play an important role. I still consider myself a beginner and I need (comprehensive) training and courses that go beyond the basics. You can find some stuff for cinema 4d but If I want to create an advanced tig as above (not as complex) then I need to look at other software training or video's (like maya) but it is possible. I also find rigging and weighting more fun in blender and less painful than cinema 4d. Also not dealing with priority constraints is awesome. I'm not saying one software is generally better than the other. It just depends on what you want to do. I just find some aspects easier as explained above. Like I still use mograph and x-particles. It's just easy and fun to use. Just my two cents

I would also add greace pencil tool in Blender.

Yes motion graphics and vfx will be much better once animation nodes is replaced by everything nodes

I found this amazing looking course about advanced rigging. Check out his other video's if you like character rigging & animation.

Shoutouts to people who do character work in Cinema 4D, especially to Kangddan. Check out this rig!

Dreams do come true

Looking great! I also took the plunge and bought the discounted Redshift. I'm still a beginner concerning Redshift. But you can also find lots of help on the Redshift forums.

Hi, I'm selling my full commercial license of X-particles 4. I've have purchased it on 20/04/2018. My offer is 450$. Pm me if you're interested or got any questions!

People have already years invested in Cinema 4D. I don't see myself learning another program just to animate and rig characters. Its takes time and money to learn another program unless that the only area that someone wants to focus on. It would be great if MAXON and improve the features which are neglected for some time now. But I'm also into characters and I love cinema's ease of use to rig characters. I would love to see them make the character toolset better.

I'm interested :) I just messaged you

Brand yourself as a cg generalist maybe? Or try to work in an agency instead in studios. They can maintain themselves better on the long run. Just my 2 cents.
