Sounds ambitious. I have never seen anything that specific around. Your best bet would be to contact Cactus Dan or maybe SlouchCorp (c4dportal) they make some amazing rigs…Horganovski at c4d cafe seems to enjoy complicated rigs too.
You can put the material on the object and work on the material at the same time and see the changes after each operation. Assuming you have textures turned on in your viewer.
I recently bought the cinema 4d es magazine (in english) and they have included an amazing lava texture that looks great and then you can just animate it onto a plane or model.

I have tried several tests and the only thing that seems to work is to add a color correction in the Render settings effects and change the gamma up to 1.8
anyone come up with a better answer please let me know.
