in my project settings my color profile was set to srgb there is an option for linear color but i feel like it should be more of an output option.
when i selected the linear color profile it made everything brighter in c4d rendering something out now to test. Is this where you can change it adam?

Right is there a way to change that within the render settings? i looked but i didn’t see where i could do that.

so i tried a hardware preview and open gl prview and i also tried the compression of the full render at animation codex the jpeg png and no compression with no results. they all are made but nothing gets made in my picture viewer

ALso if the problem was with quicktime wouldn’t it not work with in the quick time player as well

I am really stumped here

Thank brian i actually figured it out. you can make an object a deflector object with thinking particles you make that a pdeflector set to object and the particles appear to bounce off the geometry.
anyone interested with thinking particles there is a great 11 part tutorial that is very good at showing the basics of thinking particals on u tube called thinking particles introduction @ https://www.youtube.com/user/NateMac00

Also found a bunch of tutorials at https://www.vfxcast.com
found both very helpfull

I am doing a lot of animation and complex effects so based on what you are saying that as long if you load up on ram then a 4 core faster cpu would do i might experience better results?
my major issues is c4d cant keep up with me and that is frustrating while i am modeling and know that i am animating multiple models, particles and pryoclusters it gets bogged down fast. It is a space scene so there is alot of effects going on.

if i wanted to use alpha matte footage would the way to do that be shoot a luma key with a black background and then take that footage and creat a alpha matte with that
