[C4D] Bug Reporting / Re: Render instances and Motion blur randomly change the position of the instances

« on: 2025-03-14, 16:31:55 »

[C4D] Bug Reporting / LightMix + Corona Denoiser = Crash

« on: 2025-03-10, 21:38:05 »

Hi,
I haven't been using LightMix in production until recently. But I have a huge problem on a current project where I get constant crashes when rendering Light mix.
I have just a few lights in the scene + hdri.
I'm rendering 4K. I'm using Takes. File is approx 1.2GB of size.

When I turn off the denoising everything works fine.
Any ideas on what could be the problem?
Could it be the ram? I only have 64GB.

Thanks.
Matej

[C4D] Bug Reporting / BUMP issues with Render instances

« on: 2025-02-21, 17:41:28 »

Hi,
I've been getting this strange behavior where I would set the desired Bump value on an object's material. Then I would duplicate the object (Render Instances) and lose all the bump on the copied objects. As soon I changed the Render Instance to regular Instance, the bump returned.

Someone having same issue maybe?

Thank.
Matej

[C4D] General Discussion / VR 360 panorama with VR glasses (Oculus) - 2024

« on: 2024-05-17, 10:54:46 »

Hello everybody,
my client wants to see 360 panoramas with their Oculus glasses. Which service to use?
I prefer an online service compared to a desktop app because it's just more convenient for updating.

1. theViewer
Very disappointed with their service!
Had a few technical issues (p.e. when I replaced an image in the control panel with a new one, the old one kept showing up). So I couldn't refresh the images at all, maybe deleting the whole project would work, but that's a lot fo work when you already have all the hotspots setup.
I contacted their helpdesk and till this day I got no response! Nothing.
I also asked for a refund because I had to switch to another service in the middle of the project. No answer.

Oh, also installing of the VR app didn't work.

2. LAPENTOR: https://lapentor.com/
Very happy with their service and responsiveness. Everything works great.
But can't seem to use VR glasses.
Now I found a way to use it with VR glasses.
But it seems it does not work with Oculus. Tried to configure but finally didn't manage to.
Worth trying for cardboard VR sets I think.

3. 3DVISTA https://www.3dvista.com/en/
Seems to offer everything I need, I haven't tried it though.
But it's a desktop app which is less convenient for updating the images (more uploading, more potential technical problems).

4. KUULA https://kuula.co/
Haven't tried it. I'm not sure they offer VR glasses support.

Their helpdesk sent me this:

At this moment the supported devices on Kuula include:

Oculus (Meta) Quest, Quest 2 and Quest 3
Android phones, using a cardboard headset
Apple iPhone, using a cardboard headset
VR is not supported on desktop computers, laptops and tablets. Kuula also doesn't support VR on headsets that do not offer a VR-capable web browser such as Pico or HTC.

I would appreciate your take on this.
Best,
Matej

[C4D] I need help! / Re: Tile Shader - Jagged Displacement and Bump

« on: 2024-03-11, 12:39:20 »

I've changed (Bengamins file) from UVW to Object and the bump is not visible anymore.
So I guess the bump is working only for UVW Tile projection.
Very annoying I must say.

Yes, crazy times indeed :) And they even go way higher on german ebay.
Considering times, I guess 1080ti isn't a bad buy then, for cinema4d viewport performance. Especially considering 1080ti has 11GB, which is a significant boost compared to my 1GB :)

thank you

Hey peeps!
I'm very happy with my purchase, thanks again for all the help.
However I got a bit lazy with purchasing a new graphics card.

I have an offer for 1080ti (650€) on the table.
Or should I wait for the new rtx3080ti ?

I render ONLY on cpu, so I only need it for the best possible viewport efficiency.
Should I wait or get the 1080ti? What are your thoughts?!

Thanks
