Align To Spline Xpresso

by Luxx

In this tutorial, Tim Clapham from helloluxx.com takes you step by step through the process of building an align to spline expression using Cinema4D and Xpresso. The advantage of this set up over the built in expression is that the position along the spline is not clamped between 0-100%, therefore the object can be looped along the spline multiple times. Tim also adds a tangential option with a parameter that allows you to define the axis used for…

Creating Proxies using Instances

by Luxx

If you ever wanted to work with high and low resolution models in Cinema4D then this tip from Tim Clapham should come in handy. Using the Instance Object combined with a simple Xpresso setup, Tim shows you how to create an object that allows you to work with a low polygon model and then swap this out for a high polygon version whenever you need to render or preview the final result. This technique will keep your workflow streamlined, and allow…

Thinking Particles from Dynamic Collisions using C4D

by Luxx

This tutorial from www.helloluxx.com demonstrates a method to create Thinking Particles from Dynamic Collisions using Cinema4D and some simple Xpresso. Although the technique described is fairly basic, this will lay the foundation for much more complex effects that are possible by developing the principle further.
