Been an adobe nerd for years but C4D is really overwhelming me! Thank you for making this :)

[@videotrinkets]

Same here-I followed the same path 😁 C4D is an amazing app. Enjoy the journey. ✌️🏼

All these settings are nice, but just say click this click that is not that helpful. I would like to know why we should select it. What is behind it. It's like those explanations of the BIOS options: The AHCI toggle turns AHCI on or off. Great, but why would we want to turn it on? So that is what would be really helpful ;)

Hi there, what a nice tutorial!
But i have an issue that i would like to ask is when in my picture viewer, the light and the color of the scene is perfect but when i export the scene to MP4, it became darker than in the picture viewer. Do you know the issue of this?

[@videotrinkets]

Thanks for the feedback on the tutorial. As for the output of your project file, my guess would be to verify that the settings are consistent in the project file with the mp4 output settings-try to match it as closely as possible, for example. Assuming your "Image Color Profile" in the project is set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1, ensure it matches the mp4 output setting. I would also check the Depth setting to see if 16 Bit/Channel matches the project file and the mp4 output. That's where I would start. Cheers.

how can you have such look for the UI? is that C4D with some kinda custom theme?

[@Drawbotify]

Hello, It was really helpful as well for me but I still missing something. How do you save those settings ? Every time I open a new project I need to redo everything. Could you help please ?

[@videotrinkets]

Great to hear that the video was helpful. Saving the settings is quite simple. Press CTRL + B, then click on Render Settings... button at the bottom left of the pop-up window. You'll see the "Save Preset..." option at the bottom of the pop-up. Click on it and save your preset.

[@kingkopper]

What you do is create a new file with the settings you like, Lights, Camera or just settings. Once you have that save that empty file in your C4D Folder called new.c4d Hope that helps

[@shigooinitiatve8139]

hi, my cinema 4d literally freezes anytime i turn on redshift. can you help out? i use a win10 nvidia geforce card.
thank you?

[@videotrinkets]

I would double check to see if you have the latest version of Redshift installed (v3.0.66 and C4D v25.117). Good luck!
