Maxon has announced significant updates to several of its applications, including a major release for Cinema 4D (R25), updates to Trapcode Suite (version 17) and VFX Suite (version 2), and the exciting introduction of Redshift RT (currently in public beta).
Cinema 4D Release 25: Enhanced User Experience and Workflow
Cinema 4D Release 25 introduces a refreshed, modern UI, streamlining the user experience. Several interface enhancements and a new preset system are designed to significantly optimize workflows. One of the key additions is the enhanced Spline Import. Users can now seamlessly integrate vector artwork from Adobe Illustrator, PDF files, and SVG files directly into their 3D scenes.
Capsules, a powerful new feature, bring the flexibility of Cinema 4D’s Scene Node system to a wider audience. They provide plug-in-like functionality directly within the Classic Object Manager. Furthermore, new Spline and Data Integration capabilities empower users to create sophisticated Capsule Assets.
Trapcode Suite 17: Unified 3D Space and Improved Simulations
Trapcode 17 now allows users to work with Particular and Form within the same unified 3D space. This groundbreaking integration brings Form’s behaviors to Particular, opening doors to new creative possibilities. The release also features substantial upgrades to the Flocking simulation. These include “On Predator/Prey Contact” and “Team” designations. Significant improvements have also been to organizational capabilities within the Designer. All Trapcode tools now fully support Adobe’s multi-frame rendering, enhancing performance.
Redshift RT: Near Real-Time Rendering
Redshift RT, currently available as a public beta, introduces a revolutionary rendering mode. This mode delivers near real-time rendering performance while maintaining compatibility with existing Redshift shaders and lights. It efficiently coexists with the standard Redshift render engine within the same DCC application and scene, offering unparalleled flexibility.
