After drawing lines, or using splines, the user can dynamically go in and adjust the line’s location in 3D space, polygon alignment, number of nodes and more, before validating the cutting action. There aren’t 10 control inputs for nano adjustments when a single, carefully planned adjustment will do.įor example, the new Knife Tool, used to cut up 3D shapes, has an extreme array of possible visual adjustment tools. Fundamentally, MAXON has exhibited consistent restraint by only releasing updated features that are uncomplicated to use. The depth of options are ‘appropriately’ deep.

The new path cutting tools dramatically accelerate the editing of shapes by intelligently selecting cutting candidates. They are easily managed visually to quickly create very natural and organic breaking without ever having to spend time tweaking numeric data. Fracturing is used to literally break apart CG objects as if they were solid stone or glass. Likewise for the new Voronoi Fracturing controls. Consequently, differing cloned object scale and location in 3D space is not a problem everything moves around to avoid intersections, while minimizing dispersal. The Push-apart effector performs some nice, complicated math behind the scenes while enabling the user to manipulate drop down options and drag slider controls back and forth to adjust the clones. But there was a problem, because sometimes the objects would intersect and overlap. In earlier editions of C4D, using the object cloner was a great way to create a huge array of objects. This ability manifests itself with one of Cinema 4D’s newest updates: the MoGraph Push-apart effector. Mind you, there are still numerical inputs, but if close is good enough, then you really don’t need to use them. To do that, they have made almost everything controllable by a widget or gizmo, preventing the need to numerically adjust effects, influences or objects. Making the user experience more intuitive and invisible has long been a goal of MAXON. My example above is achieve with scaling, meaning the objects scale either up or down to avoid intersecting. This is achieved through several presets – scaling, distance, x axis shift, y axis shift and z axis shift. The new Push Apart effector lets users replicate/clone objects but not have them intersect. The golden age of CG is fully upon us and MAXON provides easy-to-use tools that are up to any challenge that a Microfilmmaker can throw at it.

I’ll only be covering the new features within the full Cinema 4D Studio in this review. I’m guilty in the first degree of ample playing–I mean, researching–with this latest edition. Cinema 4D Studio R18 will keep your life from ever getting boring plus, you’ll enjoy the distraction.
