Cinema 4D Architectural Edition

Anonymous
Not applicable
I was thinking about picking up Cinema 4D to bring my renderings & modeling to the next level. Is it worthwhile to get the Architectural version? I don't really need the extra objects but the virtual walkthrough sounds cool.

Is anyone using this version?

I really really really hate to say this (as I've been using Archicad/C4D/Vray for about 6 years now), but the exchange plugin between C4D and ArchiCad doesn't work at the moment. Ask your Maxon supplier about it! Ask him to guarantee that the exchange plugin ( http://www.maxon.net/index.php?id=21 ) works between R12 Archicad and C4D

see :

There is a plugin made by prot158 that is suppose to be good but I haven't tested it and haven't had time. I'm still waiting on Maxon/Graohisoft to accept some responsibility and stop pointing fingers at each other. Sorry for the quick rant, this is a real bug bear of mine......

When it does work it's dream

It certainly does work like a dream!

I've had it sitting around for weeks and finally got around to testing it. It's just annoying that Graphisoft and Maxon have forced us into this position. Still no news on 'official' versions, that's just plain slack!

I am interested in C4D Architecture Edition with VRay ( 64 bit.)

How do you think this will work with ArchiCAD 13 and Windows 7 ?
