Membership Rules

Welcome to

:iconc4dusers:

A 100% Cinema 4D Users Group

Welcome to the largest, purest Cinema 4D Group on DeviantART, all members are users of the program! There is a LOT of talent in this group, we welcome you to browse the group galleries and give the artists some good ol' fashioned DA love. If you are a Cinema 4D User, we welcome you as a member!



Before attempting to join this group please read these simple rules...



If you own Cinema 4D and have work made with Cinema 4D by you in your gallery here on DA, then you can join.

If you don't - then you can't, plain and simple.

Linking to off DA Galleries with nothing in your DA Gallery will not qualify you for membership, you must have C4D work in your DA Gallery.


Other than that, you are very welcome to watch the group.
Hello all, sorry for the slight build-up in the submissions lately, I had been deathly ill with some evil flu bug since right after Christmas.  Wow it was a BAD bug!

Lately we are getting an increasing amount of incorrect submissions, characters submitted to landscapes, landscapes submitted to Architectural, simple primitives submitted to Hard Surface Modeling, etc.  It's really simple, we have had rules and guidelines in effect now for three years, and it has worked great.  Some members have obviously chosen not to read the submission guidelines, or perhaps have forgotten it.

What does this do?  It gums up the works and slows down the submission process for everyone else!  We have to take the time to write out why this doesn't belong here, give them a link to the submission guidelines, and perhaps take the time to move the work to the correct gallery, unless it is a habitual offender.  

Yes that's right...  I do know that there are plenty of groups out there on DA who will just flat out deny a submission, and not say a word.  I absolutely will not condone that.  You as artists deserve the right to know why your beloved deviation is not being accepted.  In fact I think it is highly disrespectful that this occurs in far too many groups.  It will not here!

So once again, here is the link for the Gallery Submission Guidelines:



So, you ask, why such a fuss over the correct category?  Well, it will only help you in the long run.  For instance...  you submit a beautiful landscape render to characters or something, then along comes someone looking for a landscape modeler, but he/she never gets to see your work because it's in the incorrect gallery...  

If this still stumps you, here's something that might help - simply look into the group gallery you are wanting to submit to, and just see if your deviation is similar in some way to those deviations already in there...  not too hard right?

If you are looking for the Guidelines, just remember, they are always "stickied" at the top of the journal entry list on the group front page.

News at Maxon: Update May 30th, 2013


ASTRO SLAYERS



When you want to make a reboot of Asteroids with a strong Anime touch, you better have good GFX Tools ready, like MAXON's CINEMA 4D!

What do you get when you combine the game play of Atari’s Asteroids with the graphic sensibility of Japanese Anime? It’s called Astro Slayers, and it’s the second game app produced by C4DGames, a sister company of Italian 3D and motion graphics house Digital TRX. Astro Slayers took about 9 months to complete and is powered by the Torque 2D engine.

“Asteroids made history and marked all of us,” says Paolo Lamanna, co-founder of Digital TRX with Marco and Mad Bertoglio, explaining why he and six other artists on his team decided to create their own take on the iconic game. “I spent a lot of time playing it as a child and, at that time, those few lines of light were enough to carry us into space to live incredible moments.” Powered by the Torque 2D engine and created with MAXON CINEMA 4D, After Effects, Photoshop and a bit of ZBrush, the Astro Slayers app took about nine months to complete.

Building on the simple structure of Asteroids, C4DGames modernized the look and added a cast of characters and basic plot. The date is 2050, and the galaxy is being pummeled by a destructive and seemingly unstoppable meteor shower. To protect the earth, the World Union of States launches the Astro Slayers program, which is headed by Dr. Azama, who is known for discovering the Astroparticle, a kind of spatial energy that gives human beings extraordinary abilities....

Hey Samir, is it with a scene file hierarchy or with the program file? If it's with the program file structure I would try re-loading the program and/or contacting Maxon Support. Was it after a recent update?

Oh yes, always save... though I find Cinema 4D to be one of the most stable 3D platforms I have ever used. Not a bit like Vue, where you have to save constantly lest it crash on a whim.
