Cinema 4D 11.5: MoDynamics

hi ya,

Am running v12 and there is no Solid Body tag so I have used the Dynamics body tag... However.... When the fallin objects hits the words.... the words, and the floor, start falling without any sign of shattering...

Thanks for your time.

Hi Chris,
I liked the tutorial, coz I just got C4D and I'm in the learning curve...but, why didn't you use the keyboard shortcuts for the slice work?
Split command = U~P
Disconnect = U~D

Thanks for the info...it was very informative, esp for this noob... and I like the way it came out. This is going to be a lot of fun as soon as I can start mastering some of the procedures.
Thanks Again for all the great info at CC..u guys ROCK!

For the heck of it, can this be done in v11.0 in any way?

Hi im new to Cinema 4D, This tut is great except for when i need to go into my tag and select Rigid Body, its not there? does this mean i dont have MoDynamics plugin??

What do i have to do or download to get rigid body, so i can move on with the tutorial??

I hope this makes sense
Please Help
ThankYou

Hi Adam,

Great tutorial. Thanks. Quick questions:

1. To achieve the falling logo tile effect where it falls, bounces a little, then settles down ... is that why you added it to the cloner in order for it to have dynamics properties (I assume dynamics is what creates that effect)?

2. Is this tutorial the same technique used to achieve your Creative Cow Masters Series Intro as seen here (where your logo tile falls to the ground and then settles flat):

Thanks Adam.

I'm so glad you've updated us with a way to perform the disconnect in one swoop.

This tutorial is awesome, and I say that as a Maya user only familiar with and attempting to resist C4D.

I needed to animate a logo fast though, and this tutorial got me going.

The only thing is that I'd like to reverse it because I'm splattering the copy, and I'd like the copy to be present in the last frame instead of shattered on the floor.

I will probably figure that out before anyone's able to reply. If not....how's it done?

ahh, okay - thanks for the tip.

great tutorial chris, thanks.
As a C4d user of less than a week everything is still very puzzling...i am wondering why you put a Cloner object onto the logo instead of just using the logo?

thanks Adam

Thanks for the great tut, Chris. I used it in a presentation. I had a bottle fall and crush a logo on a stage. However, I struggled with the "bounce" of the bottle - it was too much, making the bottle tip and fall on its side. I found "linear damping" thru C4D help, but the results seemed inconsistent from the viewer pane to the final render. In the preview it looked fine, but in the render it bounced too much. Is this because of the randomness of the dynamics engine? I'd love to be able to set a number and get consistent results.

I Just Cant get the knife tool to show!

The logo isn´t in your project files Chris.
Where do i get it?

thanks for the info Chris i`m downloading the
new C4D 11.5

Oh cool, thats great news - thanks for finding a solution!

OK guys....we live and learn right? After playing around a bit more I have realized that after you do all of your knife cuts you can then just select 1 of the cuts and press ctrl. A while in polygon mode to select all of the cuts. After that use the function disconnect and uncheck preserve groups....then put it under the Explosion fx and then under the fracture object and it works just the same but without all of the hassle!!!

Regards,

Chris

ho very nice tutorial i learn alot about cinema 4d
i just have 2 douts
1st one, i made all you say but i don`t have MoGraph taps/Solid Body
how do you made bigger the workspace on the perspective view?
i have Cinema 4D & Body Paint 3D Release 11
i`ll be glad to see your opinion thanks
