One question. I rendered the view of the object i did. And how do I export it to, for example ps ?

[eyeinfinitude]

I don't know which version of C4D you're using, but I have version 7 so this only works for 7.

You gotta click on the render options button which is the third button to the right of the render button.

In there, click on output and you can select jpg, tiff...etc

Next click on save and choose the path where you want to save it to.

Now that you got all that set up, every time you render in the picture viewer (middle button), it will automatically save your render since you specified it in the render settings.

Thanks, now when I render something, the bg color is always black, how can i change that ?

[eyeinfinitude]

Hmm, that could be a lot of things, but make sure you're not zoomed in too close or your camera angle is out of ranged.

[c!rYx]

The background behind the object, not the object hisself ....

[eyeinfinitude]

oh then just throw in a sky object and apply a color material on the sky object. =)

[c!rYx]

that's it. Tx for the help

I havent used Cinema for a while , though in Maya the black space behind the rendered object can be a alpha, and if you save as a targa with alpha selected you can simply delete the black part in photoshop.

::so then you can create something in photoshop and place it behind.

:smirk:

The Problem if you do that is, that sometimes the shadow really black and then you got a problem...

[.soulty]

not really, because you are rendering to transparent in the 3d program, your object will render out a alpha with everything applied, its how you use the method compositing in after-effects or combustion with your 3d content.

That is tough english for me... I didin't get it.
There are not enough tuts for me, i already finished all. And the last 3 tuts on the kirupa list or down...
