Building V1 (C4D) [56K Warning!]

Mousey · Dec 30, 2007, 12:04 PM

I've been wanting to bench my new E4500 i got for christmas and i think this model was perfect, global illumination, ambient occlusion, the whole hog was used.
Whaddya think? It's still a work in progress so i'll post another thread when it's coloured and the lights at the top are sorted

Mousey · Dec 30, 2007, 07:06 PM

Anyone?

Judas · Jan 2, 2008, 02:04 AM

So you have a full version of Cinema4D... and you say that you can't afford a decent PSU?

I have a very generous friend, plus i know my way round the net if you know what imean

Besides i just spent all my money on a HD3850

RoyBatty · Jan 4, 2008, 11:42 AM

Yes I think I know what you mean

Have you tried Blender? It's free

Tried it but i didn't like it, C4D's just familiar to me, plus there's still plenty to learn about it

Judas · Jan 4, 2008, 12:45 PM

is the graphical interface of c4d have 3+ points of axis view? (x/y/z/camera?)

one thing i utterly hate about bryce (so much potential) is that it only gives you one point of view at a time.. making it way to time consuming and tedious...

nor does it have a snap to grid system.

Mousey · Jan 4, 2008, 01:12 PM

Yeah C4D has a 3 axis camera, i'll screenie the interface and put it up for you later

Judas · Jan 6, 2008, 03:08 AM

excellent thank you....

RoyBatty · Jan 6, 2008, 11:35 AM

I'll repeat myself here. Judas, have you considered Blender? I don't know what kind of work you need to do, but Blender is quite advanced. And you can configure the UI to whatever you want. So before paying ~700 EUR for C4D (or getting it "some other way") you could try free Blender and see if it would suit your needs.

Mousey · Jan 6, 2008, 05:04 PM

As promised, if a bit late, 1C4D Interface screenie

Help at all? I'll take more screenies if you need em

**kris23** · Jan 6, 2008, 05:33 PM

i wonder what kind of damage that program would do in judas's hands.....

lol a heavy end rig.....

Judas · Jan 7, 2008, 12:24 AM

i had tried blender at one point.. but i never had it long enough to really draw conclusions on it..

i will likely try it again..

however it's not so much for me.... (i have no way to transfering what i have thought up in my imagination to digital paper or even real paper and it pisses me off lol).... it'll likely go to my oldest sister for her to work with.

I'd suggest downloading the evaluation edition off Maxon.net and seeing how you go with that, then if you like it just "get hold" of the full version, or buy it lol

how much is it in pounds?

RoyBatty · Jan 10, 2008, 10:31 AM

£586.33
MAXON SHOP - United Kingdom & Republic of Ireland

The demo version is free (naturally

), but you can't save anything.

Mousey · Jan 10, 2008, 10:53 AM

And the full version is free if you know where to go :P
(Btw you can't say it's warez, i'm not linking)

RoyBatty · Jan 10, 2008, 11:05 AM

Well, if it is legal then post a link, I would download it

I'm not going to verify that

Don't want to test the water eitheir, i'll give you a link via pm?

RoyBatty · Jan 10, 2008, 11:41 AM

No thanks, If you can't verify it I'm not interested. But if you find a completely legal free full C4D download send me a link and I'll consider it...

I'll stay loyal to Blender till then.
