Camp Mograph part C (VIDEO TUTORIAL)
Added 2024-09-12 13:12:13 +0000 UTCHey hey,
Not my usual day of uploading stuff, but I guess they are always welcome? lol
In this part I am gonna show you some cool wave-y VDB reveals and growths, expanding on the knowledge we acquired on the previous tutorial.
Btw 2025 Cinema4D is out since yesterday and I am curious to hear your thoughts about. My next tut will be there just to test things before going on client work with the new version.
I am also recording Houdini tutorials this month :)
Stay tuned!

Hey not sure what popping means. Like in 1 frame it changes refraction? Are u using displacement after the vdb? if so, try to vdb again everything on top. There many reasons this can happen so a link with the video showing the issue would be helpful!

2025-01-06 15:03:33 +0000 UTCThank you my friend! I deleted the comment because I decided to start over from scratch and this time I was able to move forward without any problems! Thanks for the quick response!

2025-01-06 14:53:20 +0000 UTChmm this is a complex effect to be honest and takes fiddling. Make sure you use the exact same c4d version that i do if you want to follow along. Sorry for this just they change things all the time over there at maxon... and complex stuff break. I think the important takeaway is to understand one operation at a time and then despite changes, u will see that things work as intended with just slightly different values. Lastly, be sure to check project files, cause if they do work in the version you are, probably you are missing a step!

2025-01-06 14:10:32 +0000 UTCmm not sure, but c4d has a ton of issues with caching. I did this file originally in 2024.5.1 and its the same in 2025 but i didnt try cache it there. Let me know if another version works better!

2024-09-14 19:02:53 +0000 UTCActualy I have some problems with caching(( - when I cache volume with growimg intersection of base group, finaly I get higher speed of growing and diferent edge of volume then in my fields((. I can't get where the mistake. Perhaps it's somethimg with Cinema caching (I tryed two variant with cache in volume and cache by alembic) Cinema 2024.4.1

2024-09-14 16:45:01 +0000 UTCi had to uncheck 'use deformed points' in the vertex map tag as well as the Vertex Map Field in the Displacer

2024-09-12 20:54:51 +0000 UTChey probably u need to uncheck "use deformed points"
