From the course: X-Particles 4 for Cinema 4D Essential Training
Welcome
- [Andy] Hi, my name's Andy Needham, and welcome to this course where I'll be teaching you the essentials of X-Particles 4 for Cinema 4D. I'll start by discussing what X-Particles is and what you can do with this versatile plugin. Before we dive deeper into X-Particles and understand many of the components which make up this complex plugin, we go over a quick start guide so you're set up for success. I'll show you how to use the system object and understand the emitter where we will wrap our heads around questions and actions. Then, we'll dive deeper into modifiers, materials, and rendering. We explore many powerful concepts such as data mapping, using particle groups, and caching simulations. And, of course, we cover many new features including the OpenVDB Mesher, explosure effects, and cloth. There's a lot to cover, so if you're ready, let's get started.
