Apple really, really needs an uninstaller in their OS. This myth that you just drag and drop your app to the trash has gone on long enough. What’s weird is Apple is the worst at this. With Photoshop, sure, I have to go find all the Application Support folders, etc., but at least they are visible and easy to find.

Specialcase is a very nice person, don’t you think? 🙂

I set up Groups in the Materials palette for various things and imported all my materials into there and sorted them into the groups. I then saved this as “template.c4d” in the root folder of Cinema. This project file gets loaded every time Cinema launches.

Thanks again for your info!

Thank you so much for the link!

The content browser seems to show me texture .c4d files in my file system on my computer. Instead of dealing with multiple .c4d files in my file system, I’d like to have all the textures and shaders that I have appear in the Materials palette every time I open Cinema.

I can have Groups in the Materials palette. I could create a Group for Metals, Nature, etc., and have that palette loaded up every time I launch Cinema.

I remember in another post many months ago that said you can have a specific project file open every time you launch Cinema. Do you know how to do that? I could set up a blank project with all my materials in groups and then set it up so that blank project file is loaded every time I launch Cinema.

Thank you so much for your help!

Sure.

You apply the Scrub filer to your clip and then you use key frames to adjust the playback. It’s really easy and works well.

Use the File Browser in Motion instead of going through the Open/Save dialog with the Replace Media button.

Just drag and drop the file you want over the object you want to replace and it will switch them out without imposing image sequencing.

Make sure you have the “Show Image Sequences as Collapsed” button unchecked at the bottom right of the File Browser in Motion.
