Digital Meat - Cinema 4d, Unity and Playmaker Tutorials and Asset Store

[BEEFDOCTOR]

Hi Sam.

I hope all goes well. I have learned I great deal from your videos and I recently donated as way of saying thanks. Am I that one guy who donated? If so, well that’s kind of sad to be honest - you have been hugely generous with your time and your talent and you most definitely deserve more support. I hope Patreon works out well.

You have a very appreciative supporter here.

Thank you for your support it is very much appreciated, I just hope I can continue to run Digital Meat, I love it!

[BEEFDOCTOR]

even though i’m a vegetarian i just donated on your website *i chose donatingrather than becoming a patreon, because personally i don’t like subscriptions, even if it’s just a dollar. we all have to have running subscriptions all over the place and i like to keep my subscriptions down to a minimum. it’s just that i have to remember and eventually cancel and all that, just doesn’t feel good to me. and i kinda already lost the overview tbh… buti will happily donate again in a couple of months, i’m just more comfortable with that.i do hope that many other’s aren’t that much of a subscription avoider as i am and your plan adds up. but to be honest, i doubt you will gain enough patrons to be able to run digital meat full time. hopefully i’m wrong though…

Thank you for the support! I understand your deal with the subscription, especially if you have a tonne of them all over the place, it makes it hard to manage. This is really good feedback though, I was going to take the donation page down if the Patreon page did ok but based on what you’re telling me it might be worth keeping.

Thanks again

I like to say I really appreciate all the work you put into these great tutorials. There’s a lot of meat so i only watch some of them once in a while. But it’s an impressive collection of really very cool tutorials. Again, thank you very much for your generosity to share them for free!
As for the patreonpart, I’m not convinced yet to hop on board. Like Everfresh I will make a donation now to show my appreciation for your work and hopefully you get this thing rolling into something financial profitable. Keep that meat coming!

Thank you so much for the support! hopefully this will pan out and my tutorials will get even better

A suggestion Sam -

I worry your tutorials are getting lost in a sea of similar ones. Perhaps introduce a new angle? I feel that, like me, there are a lot of amateur / independent film makers out there looking to use C4D to add graphic and effect elements to their productions. Maybe a few tutorials based around small destruction and particle effects? I wonder if these would be more inspiring and engaging to follow than the usual spinning words, etc.

I really enjoyed your camera and object tracking tutorials - they were amazing. I still refer back to them. Perhaps turn this into an inspiring ‘destruction’ sequence? Obviously nothing on the scale of an ILM production, but enough to stand out from the crowd.

I agree completely, this is why I’d like to branch out into more “expert” level tutorials, but this is time consuming and unfortunately time is money. So I’m hoping with my users support I can dedicate more time to producing this type of content.

In this video tutorial we take another look at the Realflow for Cinema 4D plugin. We specifically look at the DSpline Daemon. This Daemon allows us to control particles along a spline path using forces, these forces can be mixed to control the rotation of particle around a spline, and the strength of the attraction towards the spline.

In this video tutorial we take a look at the K Volume Daemon inside Realflow for Cinema 4D, It’s a nice handy way of killing off particles that leace the volume, plus we can invert it so particles that enter the volume are killed off.

In this Cinema 4D Quick Tip we take a look at how we can change the default Quantize settings for move, scale, and rotate. We also take a brief look at the quantize settings for the texture tool.

[unclebob]

awesome quick tip, but how do you save changes to quantize as default settings? *I made changes, saved as startup, restarted C4D, it reverted back to defaults. EDIT/SAVE AS DEFAULT is grayed out, not selectable.

In this cinema 4D Quick Tip tutorial video we take a look at how we can use a spline as a mask for clones. this could be extremely useful if you need to shape your clones or limit where your clones are generated on screen.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to update you all about the current state of Digital Meat and where i hope to take it in the future with your support. Please comment below because i would really love to know what you think, all thoughts are welcome.

In this video tutorial we take a look at the K age Daemon inside Realflow for Cinema 4D, It’s a nice handy way of killing off particles based on age , plus we can add some variation to particle death so the transition doesn’t look so harsh.

In this Realflow for Cinema 4D Tutorial we take a look at the K Speed Daemon. This Daemon allows us to Kill of particles based on speed and even allows to slow particles down based on a min max threshold.

[BEEFDOCTOR]

In this Realflow for Cinema 4D tutorial we take a good look at the Noise Field Daemon. We go over each setting and I explain how the noise that effects the particles work.

In this video tutorial of Realfow for Cinema 4D we dive into the settings for the Magic Daemon. This Daemon effectively turns an object into an Attractor, but with the added bonus of being able to tweak the approach and escape velocity so we can sculpt our forces for the desired look.

[BEEFDOCTOR]

In this Realflow for Cinema 4D we take a look at the Collider Tag, This tag allows us to make geometry be taken into account with particle interaction. we can also define the surface of our collider object, whether it is rough or smooth or if it has a high friction or not.

[BEEFDOCTOR]

In this video we take a look at all the awesome features that are new to Cinema 4D R19. There have been many updates and improvements including, Viewport Enhancements, LOD object, and Pro render just to name a few.

[BEEFDOCTOR]

In this Cinema 4D video tutorial we take a look at how we can set up a scene that looks like a shot from the microscopic world. We use a combination of the Cheen shader, depth of field, and rigid body dynamics to achieve this.

Cheers Sam - I’ve had a skim through and it looks like a corker. I have never tried this effect before but I have always been curious. Thanks for sorting this Sunday out for me!

Did you save the c4d file as new.c4d at the root of the app replacing the existing new.c4d fie there?

DING DING DING that did the trick. thanks for the answer.
