One other thing that doesn’t really work properly yet is rendering dynamics with cloners. It seems to work fine with non-cloner sets of objects, but otherwise you will need to convert your clones to regular objects, and or bake the scene.

Hey bododge. Could you send me a scene file that doesn’t work for you? i remember this was an issue in old versions, but it doesn’t seem to be a problem anymore.

i did this mograph cloner and dynamics.

sometimes you need to cache it. But just before writing this i did a test, and it worked even without caching. Caching is reccomended anyway. because if you stop a render, or it crashes, and you want to pick it up from where you ended, you might not be able to ( the simulation wont match). so caching is good practice no matter what render engine you using.

I will get back to you with a file on Thea’s C4D forum. Probably tonight, if not in the next couple of days. Thanks for the info and your interest Aleksey.

Hi Aleksey – I made a forum post based on this thread.

[…] need turbulence fd or complex xparticle color control its a really solid option. more info in my review. So there you have it. If you have any amendments you think i should make please do tell me, im […]

Hi Alexsey

I acquired Thea nased on your through review.

I am very happy with my decision and your tutorials gave me invaluable help to get started.

Great work and Thank you

happy to hear that man!

You totally rock!

Would love a tutorial about rendering nodes and farms, just started in the business and would love to know more about how you use the render farms / when you need it / how much does it cost.

Anyway, thanks for all the info!

Hey Bogdan! Glad that you liked it 🙂

I’ll see what i can do about that render farm/ nodes tutorial.

aleksey

thanks for letting me know!

I think the recent versions doesnt support the color shader in c4d. I used the latest demo version and the color shader seems not working

aleksey

works here… Are you sure you followed the instructions? you got your material inside the “Retransfer” object?

anikuttan

Yes…I followed your video..set up mograph with color shader with random effector. Tried both c4d and thea materials….created a retransfer material and drag the cloner materials to it…but everything render as white

aleksey

umm.. maybe upload a test c4d file here: https://www.wetransfer.com/
and paste the link here, so i can have a look at it.

Thank you for your time and consideration… Here is the link

I tried on two other computers..but no luck…may be I am doing something wrong

aleksey

yup, there is your problem, material should be applied to cube, not to cloner. 🙂

Thank you very much

Do some tutorials on how to create advanced materials with thea render(in c4d)?
