Viewport tweaks make light and shadow easy to work with Getting a good representation of how a final render will look can be a huge deal to a 3D artist, and Maxon have realized this and R18 now gives a much better preview of the light and shadow in a scene, including reflections of sky objects, better shadow falloff and much more. There are a number of workflow improvements as well. Needless to say, fragging a sphere and running a quick bullet dynamics sim is huge fun and shows just quite how useful this tool is.
Voronoi fracture to makes the simplest job of breaking meshes, including parametricįracture amounts, distribution and a number of helpers all exist in a clean interface, along with options for using mograph selections. Maxon have deeply integrated the tool into the software, where it sits as part of the mograph toolset. The new voronoi fracture object is a one-click solution to splitting geometry apart, using the popular voronoi noise algorithm. R18 is a definite crowd pleaser in this respect. The sources section allows for exponential distribution, as well as even and normal based FanfareĮvery CG artist takes a certain amount of enjoyment out of blowing things up and destroying them digitally, and until now CINEAM 4D users had to either manually fragment meshes, or use a plug-in. Certain features aren't fun toys but in daily use prove themselves to be excellent, such as the addition of ‘Takes'. These have been mixed in terms of wow features, but usually gain a fair amount of favor from the user community, even if they are vocal about their disappointment at first. Lead upĮver since Maxon did away with the module system in favor of focused complete editions (for broadcast, visualization and so on) they have been pretty consistent at bringing out a yearly upgrade.
