Hi!
I have a rig where there is a head joint, this head joint has two child bones that are used for a polygon pony tail hair mesh.

I control the head joint using a PSR constraint (another rigs rotation is used) and I also have an IK tag on the head that ends with the second ponytail joint, I enable dynamics on the IK chain.

Problem, I can… Read more

Hi!
Any one knows of any good retarget plugin for C4D with a little more flexibility than the retarget tag.

I can use contraints but as far as I know there is no easy way to copy the constraints from one rig to another if I have multiple characters using an identical rig, so it’s a lot of work if I want to retarget an animation to more than… Read more

No that’s the onion skin feature, that’s not what I mean.
What I mean is when you add a motion clip you an see a “stickman” of the rig where the motion clip ends like in the picture, I only see the rigged character on the left not the part on the right.

I bought 3 old HP Proliant rack servers (DL380 gen 7) for 200 euro each so total 600 euro, about the same in US currency (64 GB ram in each).
This is nothing extreme but it’s cheap, each server run cinebench R21 around 2700 with two Xeon X5650 CPU’s.
It’s DDR3 memory and older CPU’s so no match for modern HW but they are cheap, only downside is… Read more

Hi!
I have a motion clip and I have checked “Show motion clip ghost” in the motion system tag, I have also checked “Show ghost” in the motion clip itself, it works fine in R21 but nothing is displayed in S22, there must be some setting that disables the ghost in the viewport but I cannot figure out what it could be, nothing in project settings,… Read more

I do not think that plugin in can read an MDD file 😉

Hi!
In the past there was the riptide plugin that would allow MDD import to Cinema 4D, I cannot find any up do date version of riptide, anyone know if this is still alive or if there is some other alternative to get MDD files into Cinema 4D ? at the moment I have no easy way to convert my MDD’s to Alembic, otherwise that would be the solution.
