The update doesn’t bring major changes to Cinema 4D’s UV toolset – a cause of complaint in the previous release – although version 21 is described as “lay the groundwork for future UV enhancements”. UVs: a new UV Transform tool and UV snapping, but no major changes When meshing a volume, it is also now possible to generate a curvature map from the resulting surface, which can be used to drive effects created with Cinema 4D’s MoGraph and Fields toolsets. The volume modelling system introduced in Cinema 4D R20 also gets an update, including a new curve-based UI to define the thickness of a spline-based volume at every point along that spline. There are also some nice small workflow improvements, such as the option to copy and paste components, including both points and polygons. The ongoing work updating Cinema 4D’s core architecture continues, with a “dramatic” – if unquantified – speed boost for the latest commands to be ported to the new modelling core, including Extrude and Split. Maxon’s marketing material pitches it primarily as a toolset for 3D typography, but it can be used with a wide range of other models, as the video above demonstrates. The form of the bevel may be selected from presets, controlled parametrically, or by editing a profile graph.Ĭaps and bevels are created as a single object, with additional selections sets for shells and edges and there is the option to link the start and end caps on a spline. New modelling features in Cinema 4D R21 include Caps and Bevels, a self-descriptive new system for adding user-customisable caps and bevels to spline objects.

CINEMA 4D STUDIO VS VISUALIZE SOFTWARE
The release, which is being demoed at Siggraph 2019, will also scrap the four lower-end editions of the software and introduce unified product pricing, including new subscription plans. Maxon has unveiled Cinema 4D R21, the new version of its 3D animation software, adding a new Caps and Bevels system, a Field Force object for motion graphics, and better support for Mixamo animations.
