Hello. Thanks for your answer. I have replied above with examples. I’ve attached MP4 as an example. What I need is 16-bit video, that Cinema4D can take. For some reason QT ProRes is not recognized by Cinema4d and AVI doesn’t support 16-bit and image sequences can’t be used…wow )

Hello,

Thank you for your answers. Actually I’m already using displacement deformer. I have an animated gradient map, which looks like mp4 in the attachment. If I use AVI (8-bit) for displacement shader, I get very noisy result. If I use 16-bit image, then as you can see it’s perfect. However I need this to be animated and since I can’t use image sequence, I need 16-bit video I guess ? However AVI is 8-bit only, I can use QT Pro-Res, but Cinema4d on PC doesn’t recognize it. So is there a solution ?

Thanks

Yep. I thought of that, but basically I would need to write some sort of 3D engine for that. I could use 3D stroke as well to change taper based on the depth… it sounds pretty complicated. Anyway.. I think I “sort of” tuned 3D stroke/camera to achieve an “acceptable” result.

Hello,

That’s true. But as the result it also distorts by cube… ;-(
That’s the problem…
