  • Previewing .b3d from Avi movie render

    Posted by Bryan Richards on October 9, 2007 at 10:23 am

    Is there a way to preview a frame(s) of an avi movie render which is in a .b3d format? Ive a render that is taking a while, i could do with just checking its progress. I can see a little clip in the net render window but its not big enough.

    kind regards

    Hi,

    check the DPIT Sheet. It includes a free plugin “RAM Player” which allows to load in single images of an animation.

    You find it here: https://www.dpit2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=102

    It supports all formats supported by c4d.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Katachi, thanks for the link. Ive loaded a “sequence” being 1 .b3d file which is the file cinema makes before compiling them all into an .avi when the render is finished.
    After importing, i get nothing but a blank screen? Ive tried importing a simple avi too but no joy too. Any advice to what im doing wrong here

    Kind Regards

    Ok the answer is. .b3d is a bodypaint file and can be viewed by simply dragging it into cinema. DOH! simple when u know how
