Cinema4D: Cartoon Outline

How to create a cartoon outline in c4d using Backface Culling and inverted normals.

[@dmellis]

I was hoping this would work with Redshift materials but it doesn't.

Clever way for toon shading style

[@drfrankenstein5414]

Toon shader is the best method to do that especially when you are dealing with a rigged character

[@Doomed_Sinx]

how? When i use toon shader it is ugly as fuck, is there any way to disable everything except the outline?

[@troy8788]

need help, the model with the actual textures appears covered in grey dots when it's inside the outline, how do i solve it?
happens only when i render

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

Are you using the Standard renderer?

[@troy8788]

@@Mr_Anderson_one yes but don't worry i fixed it, turns out I didn't apply the inside texture to the entire model, now everything works perfectly, thank you so much!

[@mallouliabdessamii6957]

PLEASE help! i did all the steps and my character gets the same live outlines! but when i render he gets all in black color! not how he appeared on the workspace screen!!!???? Thank you so much!

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

What render engine are you using? Standard?

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

Create Material -> Alpha Channel -> Texture -> Effects -> Normal Direction

And then apply the material. This is for standard render engine. Others might have different solutions to this. :)

@@Mr_Anderson_one Thanks a lot for the response! yes exactly standard render!

[@mallouliabdessamii6957]

@@Mr_Anderson_one Man i don't know how to thank you! it works perfectly fine 😀😀😀😀😀 Thanks a lot! and keep the great work! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Clever method but takes more time for rendering

[@revocolor]

Thank u for share ♥

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

You're welcome 😊

What is the program version?

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

in this video probably r23

[@andrearusky]

why not just use sketch and toon? With this method you will have issues with animations (like if you have IK/skin deformation)

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

sketch and toon is slower, can't see preview and many times doesn't work as I expect
but I use both of these
I think if you can solve the problem with animation that you mentioned, this method is better

[@timotionz]

Sketch and Toon sometimes work not properly, depends on angle of camera ETC

[@gabrielamelina9709]

how do you open the viewport setting??

[@Mr_Anderson_one]

Sorry for the late reply, but for me it's Shift + V. You can also see that shortcut being used in the video in the little black box :)
