Thank you SO much for this tutorial! You are very appreciated. You and Noseman are my favorite and ultimate instructors. I do mostly organic modeling with Volume Builder and your explanation of Fields within is superb and clarified a ton of things for me. Your tutorial is really magical and that is exactly how I feel about the capabilities of Volume Builder and Fields. I really hang on your every word in these superb learning experiences and I would so love to have more of these from you on this topic! It is an almost overwhelming topic but SO magical. Your soft spoken and easy pace style is exactly the way I learn best. I have always been a fan of formulas in C4D and your tutorials on that topic are wonderful. I am very much looking forward to more tutorials from you please on modeling organic shapes (like Endoplasmic Reticulum and such) because I really enjoy them!
Don... The fact that you mention me in the same sentence as Noseman is a great compliment. He is one of my favorites also. His knowledge of what is behind the geometry is unmatched. And his instruction style is the absolute best. Thank you so much for your interest and suggestions, I have several ideas for tutorials in the queue but have found it very difficult to find the time. Be assured that I have not yet given up.
that is a very good animation, good sir! it just blows my mind that you are a retired engineer doing this for hobby. you must be really really smart.!!!
The ants on the floor are cloned on a spline and the Cloner-Object-Rate is set to 5%. That has the effect of animating the ants on the floor. The ants on the Volume Mesher for 2019 are not animated. The effect happens because the Volume Mesher changes size over time. The Volume transition is animated by changing the position.y of the 2019 Linear Field using key frames. I made Linear Field 2019 position.y a driver for the Linear Field 2020 position.y. I did that by right clicking the p.y on the Coord. Tab of the Linear Field 2019 and then choosing XPressions-Set Driver, and then right clicking the p.y on the Coord. Tab of the Linear Field 2020 and then choosing XPressions-Set Driven (Absolute). This makes the p.y of 2020 always match 2019, so I can key frame only the 2019 Linear Field.

@@pappystutorials More please! Your level of detail is superb and a great teaching style.
Amazing explanation of fields in c4d, thank you very much.
Wish there in UA-cam would be more people like you!
I appreciate the kind words. I’m glad you found it useful.
Thanks for the sharing and the tutorial. Really appreciate it so much for the sharing !
I'm glad to share what I love to do 😀

Wow. Thank you!
how did you apply the animation? could you make a tutorial? thanks!

Pappy's Tutorials Thank you so much! I will try it.
