Target or Constraint, you decide?

Posted in Cinema4D Misc on July 7th, 2009 by Tim

I think everyone is familiar with the Target Tag in Cinema4D. However, did you know that the Constraint Tag offers a target feature too? The Aim parameter of the Constraint Tag is far more feature rich than the Target Tag. It is certainly worth checking out.

If you are not familiar with using the Constraint Tag, then head on over to Vimeo to watch this short tutorial as an introduction to the benefits of the Constraint Tag over the Target Tag.

Hopefully it will point you in the right direction . . . Boom boom!

Introduction to Point Cache

Posted in Cinema4D Misc on May 21st, 2009 by Tim

Ever used the caching that is available in certain tags and objects for Cinema4D?

Here is an introduction to the Point Cache Tag and Point Cache Deformer.  For this tutorial I thought I’d record a short movie.

You might want to head on over to Vimeo and watch the HD version of this (so you can actually see what is going on!).
