A Substance Shader is created for each texture of the asset and connected to the right parameter. The main node in the network is a standard shader. Arnold Renderer C4d Convert the Selected Substance Asset to an Arnold MaterialĪdds a new Arnold Material to the scene and builds a shader network according to the selected Substance Asset. Replace the Selected C4D Material with an Arnold MaterialĬreates a new Arnold Material with the shader network converted from the selected C4D Material and replaces the original C4D Material in the scene with the new Arnold Material.ĭefault shortcut is Alt+W~M in the Material Browser. See the Cinema 4D Material page for the supported features and limitations.ĭefault shortcut is Alt+W~C in the Material Browser. Note that the resulting Arnold Material won't be a perfect match to the C4D Material since Arnold has different shaders and concepts. It also supports both animation and single frame distributed rendering in Team Render, allowing the use of all computers in a local network to speed-up Arnold rendering. Arnold for Cinema4D (C4DtoA)supports most Cinema 4D features such as instances, cloners, deformers, generators, MoGraph geometry, hair, and ThinkingParticles. If you are a new user to Arnold Answers, please first check out our FAQ and User Guide for more information. This is the place for Arnold renderer users everywhere to ask and answer rendering questions, and share knowledge about using Arnold, Arnold plugins, workflows and developing tools with Arnold. – Seamless integration with C4D: objects (instances, cloners, deformers, generators), MoGraph geometry, hair and splines.
Arnold for Cinema 4D (or C4DtoA) provides a bridge to the Arnold renderer from within the standard Cinema 4D interface. Title: Arnold v4.0.0.1 for Cinema 4D R21 – R25 Win X64.
