Such a brilliant tutorial! The way you were able to solve each problem you encountered is really impressive. Even after using C4D for years, I still have so much more to learn because I wouldn't have thought of half of these solutions😭

Absolutely brilliant, I'm gonna try this technique, thank you Lukas, keep going!

That's amazing man! Thanks so much for sharing, this is next level!!!

ok now this is amazing!!! i think to force the per-frame cloner update you need to rearrange the order of some of the objects in your hierarchy as c4d processes tasks from bottom-to-top in that order. im not talking about child-parent hierarchy, im talking about order of appearance in the object manager. move the target effector under the cloner and maybe the VDB cache (not as a child, just under but at the same hierarchical level as before), and it will start updating every frame.

Again another great tutorial. Thank you Lukas ♥

Thank You! Such a great idea!

great tutorial. thank you. If you are looking at this using later pyro versions - it seems a bunch of the settings moved to the - pyro output object - pyro or partials tab.

love this! could you please make a tutorial on the material/lighting setup used in the render with the blue/red particles? much appreciated 🙏🙏

Why haven't i encountered this channel before? Top quality stuff! Thanks man! You're one talented artist!

Any ideas as to why when I cache the simulation the smoke stops colliding with the floor? The smoke hits the floor and spreads as per the tutorial, but when I cache the smoke just falls straight through the floor.

There isnt an surface emmiter keyframe option for c4d 2024. Any workaround or am I missing it? Great tut.

Object fidelity replaced that. It is now relative to the voxel resolution of the simulation (Ctrl + D > Simulation > Pyro > Voxel Size). If your voxel size is 10 cm and fidelity is at 50%, then the voxel size used for the emission object is 20 cm.

So many of the settings have changed you now have pyro fuel and pyro emitter, I cant find the Voxel size any where haha

You can do that but it's optional. You can use "live" velocity data for advection, cache or even load a stored velocity vdb sequence in the volume loader.

Technically I was playing with cinema 4d, the Tracer that you add, you must place a "Redshift Object" you change it to "Boxes" and try to decrease its size from smallest to largest. Once you have finished adjusting, put an emission material on the tracer and enable bloom.

If your voxel size is 10 cm and fidelity is at 50%, then the voxel size used for the emission object is 20 cm. Surface emission is now in Emission mode to make it more explicit what the alternative to "surface" is.

why does it bring a pyro output for me instead of pyro?

@Havealot

5 ай бұрын

You are probably using a newer version of C4D. It's the same thing. It was just renamed for clarity. A lot of people confused the object holding the pyro emitter tag with the actual output of the simulation. Material assignment, meshing, caching, export, referencing grids as forces in Field force, all of that is done with the Pyro (Output) object.

I cannot stop pyro emission in 2024.0.2

Great content! just go a bit more in detail!!

Thanks for this great tutorial - I hope its ok to suggest some improvements. There are several points where you just state "click this" or "set this to X", without any explanation as to why. Youve obviously worked through these processes and found the settings that worked best for you, but it would be super useful for us to know even slightly why. Not only does this increase our understanding while we learn the main steps, but also helps us understand what to come back and play with later, or even to troubleshoot if we run in to issues. I myself much prefer tutorials that arent just showing a process, but actually teaching the understanding behind the process. To give you one example, when you are setting up the cloner system, and you feel the height of the cloned cube needs to be longer - why? And when you state the cloned effect should display this circle at the centre - why? I can see we understand this ourselves later, but it would be great to have less of just instruction, and more teaching. Thanks!

Wow, nothing worse than getting half way through your absolutely brilliant tutorial to realize Maxon has gone and changed things AGAIN. Why would Maxon have decided to remove fields from the attractor or the deflector? They must have figured out another way to do this, using some node, or ticking some box somewhere, but having to figure out how to use this program all over again every other update is ridiculous and sending me quickly along to things like Blender. Maxon's propensity for constantly changing things is making me question spending (or rather wasting) any time on that software.

Blender developers will never understand that the settings in one panel are much (much) better and faster than their idiotic nodes, which take up a lot of screen space and a lot of time to study them, and some people believe that Blender will soon be ahead of Houdini and Cinema 4D: ))) Naive fools. Nothing simpler than C4D has yet been invented!!! 99% of needs are done without nodes!!! In addition, C4D works many times faster than Blender, this applies to all areas: particles, physics, animation, tracking, etc.
