You’re very welcome.

Here’s the sample project if it helps:

If I understand the question, you could duplicate the cones under the cloner, insert a sphere at the desired position in the chain, and set the count to the total number of cones and sphere.

Glad to help.

Hi Hilary,
Unless I’m misunderstanding your issue, in order to get animated randomness you need to select either Noise or Turbulence in the Random Mode setting, otherwise you just get one random value based on the seed. For the other modes you would need to animate the seed to have any change over time.
Edit: I forgot to mention that you could also animate any of the actual parameters (x, y, z position, for example) or the effector strength, but if you’re looking for automated randomness use Noise or Turbulence.

You’re welcome. Hope it helps.

The tree image is the default reflection used in the viewport. I have never used C4D Lite, but assuming it acts in the same way as the full version if you’re going to use both the Reflectance channel and the Environment channel you need to set the Attenuation in the Reflectance channel to “Additive” in order to see the Environment channel. All the settings in C4D can easily be confusing, so I would recommend getting familiar with the Help files. You can right click on any parameter and select “Show Help” to access them. Here’s a screenshot from the Help files for the Environment parameters concerning what I referred to above:

The only way I can think of would be to use a displacer deformer and load your material into its “Shader” parameter, and then use the “Current State to Object” command. Make sure you have plenty of subdivisions in your object to get good detail. I don’t know how much it will change the render time, but it may be worth trying.

Great. Glad you’re getting it worked out.

It should just work with the fracture object as a child of the cloner with the dynamic tag on the cloner.
