Maxon Tip 327: How to unleash the power of numeric input fields in Cinema 4D

I organized my UDIMs in a Mesh with Rizom UV in 2 columns and 4 Rows, for better a better overview. Looks like this 1001, 1011, 1021, and so on. In Substance Painter there was no problem, but when i tried loading the texture in octane for cinema4D, the pattern was not recognized and i…

Sometimes the Space Mouse just stops working in C4D. Until now everytime the Solution was to update your 3D Connections drivers. (May 2025)

i had this problem for ages, but it seems nobody else.now i found a solution. At least in the universal material control the metallness with an extra node (float, image, … ). Then the function „solo texture“ also works in metall materials for roughness,. bump, and so on. Cinema 4D R23, Octane 2020.1.5-R4

If you have problems/errors with your opacity channel in combination with displacement in c4d octane, it could be that you are using the exact same texture which results in some kind of fade out effect. You have to modfiy the opacity image in a way that your black and white colors are a little bit…
