I have watched just one third of this video and I love it already! This lad is one of best C4D tutors on a planet, and this lesson is one of the best classes on Fields I have seen so far !!

What an amazing tutorial! I really like the way you explain things, Chris! Thank you! I learned a lot here.

Chris, this is hands down the most comprehensive C4D tutorial I have ever watched, it was meaty and I won't be able to do this from memory for a long time yet but I just learned a hell of a lot, thank you so much for this, wow

Hi Chris, I have loved your tutorials since the first day I saw you on GSG. I reckon this tutorial is going to become the "how to" for doing destructions and cracks on the ground (and other surfaces). It has taken me a long time but I finally feel that I really understand about 80% of what you say, so please know all the hours (probably adds up to years) of your time plowing into these tutorials REALLY made a difference for me, even though I am a slow learner, I eventually caught up some. I am sure I am not the only person that feels this way. I have learned so much from you guys at GSG and now from Rocket Lasso I can only wish you the best and hope lots of people support you, you really deserve it.

Thanks Chris, for sharing your knowledge and C4D findings with the community, without content providers such as yourself, learning C4D would be much harder. I love your new live stream series and have learned so much from them, often learning aspects of C4D not necessarily pertinent to the subject matter, but things like keyboard shortcuts. The whole philosophy behind sharing your knowledge with the community is something that will continue to help the industry overall, and as I learn more from you and others one day I will give my knowledge back as well, continuing the cycle of helping others achieve their creative goals.

Great tutorial, despite that the few last minutes, made my head explode

As someone who's new to Cinema 4D, the techniques used in this lesson is helping me a great deal in understanding Dynamics, and how to control them. What you've essentially done is use Luma/Alpha Mattes in the form of Vertex Maps, just like in After Effects, and like in AE you used the same Maps but created different variations of each. That is just...brilliant. Thank you for your time & effort here, as well as the C4D course you did, you have been literally teaching me Cinema 4D, and giving my mind a break from this pandemic, thank you so much.

Instantly one of my favourite C4D tutorials, nice work! I'd love to see another sketch and toon tutorial, perhaps there's a way you can combine dynamics with s&t?

It would be interesting to see some RocketLasso stream dedicated to this topic. Lots of people are struggling with lots of factors - pressure of all sorts, thinking that they are not good enough, lack of 'bottom to top' knowledge on how to do the project... I'm surrounded by people (even in creative industries) who think that creativity is some 'divine sparkle' or such. It would be interesting to hear Chris on this subject, for me at least.

Great m8!

Chris lol, GRAYSCALL

Thank you for this tutorial. It was quite informative. I had some issues when adding the cracks, and it is because I am using R25 and I think that some things have changed since 2019 and whichever version you are running. The issues seem to be in the heiarchy and what goes where and when. Setting it up the way that you did works until I add in the Solid field and then everything breaks. I was lucky earlier in the tutorial that I guessed wheree a Curve should be placed and it worked!!! Now, however, I am stuck. Is there anyway you could advise me on where I should place the solid, I've tried several placements and nothing is working.

Great Tutorial with lot`s of details. If you scatter some grass onto the surface and want to make it dynamically fly away. What is the best way for that?

Hi Chris...great tutorial !! One question (out the context i guess) is there a way to get unwrapped render output from cinema 4d by any chance ?

Not pure dynamics but it would be cool to see a tutorial on actually integrating things like this into a shot, things like basic tracking in cinema, projection mapping with rs, maybe a bit of the compositing although that's not as important. There aren't really any good in depth tutorials on these things, at least not that I've seen so I could be wrong.

Hi! I'm following your tutorial and it's amazing but I'm having a real big issue with the mesh deformer: in R25 there's something like a bug and the all the plane vertex go crazy if I put it in the same position of the fracture vonoroi but if I change the position it doesn't intersect with the vonroi so it doesn't work. I'm really going out of my mind and I have a deadline in few days...

how about using the voronoi detailing feature? does it make scene too heavy or run into texturing issues? it would make edges lot more realistic maybe

@dmellis

Very heavy indeed, and it can sometimes look a little rough on the edges, although the trick I use in the end to hide it would work for that as well!

i love all these tutorials but im a real amateur who can create but doesnt know who to render properly and take the project into after effects. i would really appreciate it if you could go through a project from start to finish but include how to render the project to a file or a move clip

hi! i got an issue....when i do it with a voronoi fracture in a cube and a plane with vertex map like the tutorial and works fine, but i try to do the same effect in a hemisphere (this hemisphere is modeled by 2 arcs into a lathe, this way I can have the hemisphere with a bit of thickness) and calculate the vertex map in the same hemisphere and try it in a c4d hemisphere without thickness too. When i use this effect in my hemisphere the dynamics are activated correctly, but at a certain moment they rise again as if there were an attractor but there is nothing more on the scene than the hemispheres. how can I solve that? where this error? I think it has something to do with vertexmap but I don't know.

This tut still works super well, I am just having an issue making my fracture pieces flush in the beginning of the animation. They are all just slightly shifted randomly on the Y axis and I can't find the way to correct that. If anyone knows a solution that would be super helpful.

I understand that all the thing is about dynamics but even for dynamics there must be limits to increase the performance. My way could be to use a hidden polygon object to map the voronoi area. I know this sounds like a faking but these kind of processing heavy scenes limiting works petty well. Calculation area becomes smaller and maybe there could be a chance for a secondary breaking.

@orcunakman

@@RocketLasso you're trying to do the best parametric way possible and it is awesome to change. The difference is, from the beginning I would map the area with a polygonal object and prepare a border and outside that border there won't be any breaking because of voronoi. Because there is no breaking there, there won't be any processing because of voronoi and dynamics. Also the polygon object or objects can be modelled as the art directors vision. You know better, in cinema 4d there is always another way(maybe not the best way) I'm just writing as an idea.

pretty cool setup but: you would save so much computing and converting and baking if you did not use dynamics and wind on the plain. But instead of that use simple plain effector and deform points down

@RocketLasso

I agree, was thinking about that later, and how it would need to scaled to huge numbers, but I think it would have worked. Maybe even easily if the Field was unclamped. Even then though, the IDEA of using Dynamics this way is useful to have in your head hopefully!

Hi, I’m having an issue where my dynamic ground (the parts that don’t collapse because they are outside the limiter) is strangley rising up opposite of the direction of the wind (in this case up, but a tested a different wind direction). Anyone have any ideas about what could be wrong?

so instead of going through cloning a small Plane on axis center of Voronoi then use Mesh deformer on that clone then create Matrix object on the clone,, then use Inheritance effector on the Voronoi, why can't you use Mesh deformer directly on the Voronoi to make it follow the soft body? Because it changes the shape of individual rock? Can this be simplified in any other way?
