Cinema 4D version 4.05-R7 (V4 stable) 25.10.2019

[stefano-dear]

Hi,

I noticed that Offset and UV percentage size of Cinema doesn't work to scale the textures. Is it normal?


Thanks
Stefano

Hi,
is up to you, v2018 is v5, here is the list of the new features of v2018:

- Cryptomatte
- Deep render passes
- Vectron (analytic geometry)
- Vertex Attributes
- Spectron (procedural volumetric light system)
- Much less volume render noise
- NV Link support on RTX 2080 and RTX 2080 Ti (Enterprise only)
- Direct Levelset surface rendering from VDB (can be fed into Vectron)
- Scatter depth limiting (i.e. fast fog rendering)
- Cached compressed textures

Hi, how i can make direct Levelset surface rendering (noise) with VDB loader object?

You need to do it in Standalone, save as .orbx, and import it back to c4doctane.

OMG) Doesn't look too intuitive.

“To use OFFLINE version of manual from plugin
Download following package and extract to Cinema4D/plugins/c4doctane/manual"

Who can help me, I put this file and put it in the directory as required, but open or go to the network document, and did not start the local offline document. Ask how to do

Hi carterner,
just re tried with both Mac and Win, R19 and R20, everything is working as expected with the offline manual here.
Please, share a screenshot of the c4doctane directory with path, thanks.

Ok, please remove the manual folder, and move the help folder directly into the c4doctane folder.
