The first step in most 3D projects is creating the objects.

The most basic shapes are provided in MAXON CINEMA 4D as parametric primitives. Parametric objects can be converted to polygons to serve as a basis for more complex objects. A number of deformers and othe

r generators can be used in conjunction with objects.

Splines can be used as the basis for extrudes, lofts, lathes and sweeps - all of which can be adjusted dynamically in real-time, and even animated.

Whether it's artificial or natural materials you are creating, CINEMA 4D's material system provides incredible control over the surface properties of your 3D objects.

The basis for most channels is a texture or shader. For textures, CINEMA 4D supports most popular image formats, including layered PSD files.

A wide range of 2D and 3D volumetric shaders make it easy to create procedural surfaces and easily simulate glass, wood or metal. With filter and layer shaders you can easily combine images, shaders and filter effects.

Shift your scenes into the fourth dimension with MAXON's CINEMA 4D. Building professional 3D animation has never been easier and more intuitive.

Virtually any object, material or tag parameter can be keyframed by simply clicking the circle next to its name. To make keyframing even simpler you can activate automatic keyframing of all or selected parameters. The Power Slider lets you quickly define keyframes for the current state at any frame and modify existing keyframes without leaving the default layout.

CINEMA 4D offers a complete array of gaffer's tools so you can make your scene outshine the competition.

Light up your scenes with CINEMA 4D's lighting system and produce outstanding results in little time with the built-in render engine.

As a 3D artist you know that fast, easy workflow is the key to meeting deadlines and edging out the competition.

Novices and professionals alike will appreciate the well-designed workflow that makes CINEMA 4D the easiest-to-learn professional 3D application. You can count on MAXON's technical support specialists to provide quick and free support by phone or email.

"Man is not an island" and neither is MAXON's CINEMA 4D. Because real-world 3D artists do not work in a vacuum, CINEMA 4D includes support for a host of industry-standard file formats.

CINEMA 4D renders passes in any desired format (image sequences, AVIs or QuickTime movies and many more) and creates a compositing project file that automatically brings all sequences together in the c

orrect format. Depending on the compositing application used, additional data such as 3D cameras, 3D lights or reference objects will be exported as well.

CINEMA 4D lets you fully customize nearly everything.

From its easy-to-use node-based XPresso system to scripting with its own C.O.F.F.E.E. language or the widley acclaimed Python language or a complete C++ SDK. It's up to you!

New in R17

Release 17. Faster. Easier. More Realistic.
Cinema 4D R17 makes the easiest-to-use professional 3D software more efficient than ever before. New tools as well as expanded and completely reworked features help you turn your ideas into reality even quicker and with less effort. The improved workflow helps you meet the tightest deadlines. We’ve even gone so far as to re-invent the line!

Workflow That Simply Works
Work Fast, Play More
Smooth workflows bring creativity to life. That’s why workflow is front and center in Cinema 4D Release 17.

The revolutionary Take System will save precious time. The new Color Chooser does all those things you always wanted with color, as well as things you didn’t even know you wanted! Integration with Sketchup and the Houdini Engine make Cinema 4D your ideal hub. Let creativity flow.

Modeling
Onboard spline tools with real-time feedback
Release 17 comes with a complete splines toolkit - no need to switch to an external tool. Easily create and modify splines with Cinema 4D's new Pen tool, sketching, smoothing, arc tool, and boolean commands.

Sculpting
Intuitive and efficient organic modeling
Dozens of new features and improvements in Cinema 4D Release 17 make sculpting a true delight. Use Sculpt to PoseMorph, for example, to speed up character animation. Easily sculpt hard-surface models with Edge Detection. Release 17 makes sculpting in Cinema 4D easier than ever.

Improved Rendering
Better variability and usability with the new Variation and Formula Shaders
Release 17 offers new and expanded shaders to increase usability and performance. With the new Material Override function you can easily override specific channels of selected materials to create clay or matte renders.

Improved Annimation
Greatly improved Motion Tracking features
Integrating 3D assets into video just got easier. The Motion Tracking feature in Cinema 4D has been enhanced by adding the ability to correct lens distortion and by adding an intuitive tool for quickly eliminating problem track points.

Graphics cards

Generally speaking, CINEMA 4D and BodyPaint 3D support all OpenGL 2.1-capable graphics cards. Nevertheless, we recommend using a dedicated 3D graphics card with an AMD or NVIDIA chip set. High-performance graphics chips are currently already available in mid-range laptops.

Make sure that you always use the most current certified graphics card driver (no beta versions).

To find out more about processing speed, CINEBENCH test results can be found online.

Important notice
MAXON is not responsible for the compatibility of individual graphics cards with the OpenGL mode. Due to the large number and types of available chip sets, operating systems and driver versions we cannot guarantee the compatibility of all systems.

The technical specifications of MAXON products are constantly changing. Please use the most current demo version of the software to test its compatibility on your computer.

Regarding NVIDIA 3D Vision

A quad buffered graphics card is required to use NVIDIA's 3D Vision Shutter glasses for viewing the stereoscopic display in CINEMA 4D.

An overview of graphics cards that meet all requirements can be found here:
