Post by: arjunkumar1108 on 2020-11-02, 09:38:32

I am trying to model a cloud and render it in Cinema4d. I am very new to C4d and Corona, can someone please help me!

Thanks,
Arjun

Hi, this should be rather simple to create. You can apply a Corona volume material to your mesh to get that "cloud" look. Hopefully, this article will help you:

Thanks, but that doesn't say anything about modeling ad rendering a cloud. It's about god like rays!

You can also create or download a (free) cloud VDB, load it in C4D, use the volume mesher on it and apply a corona volume material to it.

Or have a look at https://corona-renderer.com/resources/models where down at the bottom the Distance Shader example scenes contains one with a cloud, so you can reverse engineer how that is done.
