Cinema 4d materials
All materials, textures, labels, animations, transformations, cameras, and lighting will be maintained in the scene.

To Update any changes made in C4D, click Update while your KeyShot scene is open.The 3D data will be transferred from C4D to KeyShot. Go to Plugins, KeyShot and click the Render to launch KeyShot.BIP file that you can share with other KeyShot users. The 3D data will be transferred from C4D to KeyShot.Ĭlick the Update button while an existing KeyShot scene is open to update any changes on your model.Ĭlick the Export button to export your geometry as a. The KeyShot button performs three functions: Render, Update, and Export.Ĭlick the Render button to launch KeyShot. Once installed, a KeyShot menu will appear inside the main menu, Plugins. Drag the KeyShot folder from the KeyShot Plugin installer window and drop it into the plugins folder.Go into the CINEMA 4D RXX., plugins folder. The Finder.app will open at Library, Preferences, MAXON.Go to Edit, Preferences and click the Open Preferences Folder button in the lower left-hand corner.The KeyShot Plugin installer window will appear. After downloading, double-click the installer (.dmg) file.Drag the KeyShot folder from the C4D folder and drop it inside the plugins folder.

*Animation, Scripting and NURBS data import requires KeyShot Pro Installation Windows LiveLinking update of models in KeyShot.Objects retain materials, can be unlinked.Maintain hierarchy of objects created in scene tree.The KeyShot for Cinema 4D plugin supports these features: Plugins for previous versions of KeyShot are available here. For questions about other versions, please contact KeyShot for Cinema 4D plugin requirements are as follows: Thin parts will be more clear, thick parts will be more colored.These installation notes are specific to the latest version KeyShot, Cinema 4D (C4D) and the KeyShot for Cinema 4D plugin, unless otherwise mentioned. The effect is as if the object was made of colored glass. The effect is as if the object was made of clear glass coated with a thin layer of paint.Ĭolored glass - absorption color is used, which means that the color is dependent on the object's volume (thickness). This mode should be used for objects with very thin surfaces that do not refract light - such as window panels, or soap bubbles.Ĭolored glass - refraction color is changed, which means that the color is purely dependent on the object's surface. The thin mode disables any refraction, while keeping the object transparent and reflective. Solid glass should be used for objects that have thickness - such as vases, bottles, liquids. Refraction can be set either to solid or thin ( Refraction > Thin (no refraction)). Glass materials use both reflectivity and refraction. Mirror - a reflective material with very high glossiness and Fresnel IOR value of 999 Below are some examples with material settings:Ĭhrome - mirror-like material with high glossiness Reflection IOR was increased to 2 to make the wood appear as if it was slightly polished.įor most metal materials diffuse property can be disabled (or set to pure black color). To create this material, native C4D procedural "Wood" texture was used. In this example, a noise map was used to control diffuse color, reflection glossiness, and bump amount. Since Corona supports native Cinema 4D procedural maps, they can be used to create details in materials. To make the reflections more blurry, go to reflection properties and lower the "glossiness" value. To introduce some reflectivity to the material, enable "Reflection" property. This makes it useful for basic materials such as plaster, painted walls, and similar. It is gray with a diffuse level (brightness) of 70%. The default Corona material has diffuse component only. To create a new Corona material go to Corona > New Material in the material library panel. The C4D file containing simple materials presented in this guide can be downloaded here: Please visit the following link to learn more about it: Note: Starting from Corona Renderer 7, the Corona Material has been renamed to Corona Legacy Material and you will find a new and more complete material called Corona Physical Material which will allow you to create more accurate and realistic materials for your projects.
