    Pleasantly surprised to see your channel resurrected. :) I completely agree with what Mihaly said regarding your ability to bring the complexity of Cinema 4d down to a fundamental level. Not everyone can do that in such a tactful manner, so kuddos to you. Keep them coming!

    Also, Cinema froze on me the first time right after I saw this video. Creepy. (sorted out itself in a minute, also the first time I didn't hack the hell out of the keyboard...)

    For everybody trying to rescue a project with third party plugin crashing the project even after recovery file:
    move the plugin out of the library folder, so Cinmea doesn't see the plugin > load recovery project > delete what was crashing the program > save > load plugin again to library > done!

    this didn't work for me :( it crashed when I was just trying to use the lathe tool and it didn't seem to have anything wrong with the geometry was just a simple spline, however there was some sculpting work in the scene that was high res. The whole program closed on it's own with no option to do the shift delete thing... then if I open the file from the recovery folder in preferences it crashes straight away.... Any idea what could be up here? How did the file go so wrong......

  • @skyhawk77
    @skyhawk77 5 років тому

    To avoid lockups which are caused by yourself and not the software, you should get into the habit of adjusting the LOD (Level of Detail) in the viewport which is accessible from the Display menu of the viewport, if not otherwise docked to another part of the GUI.

    I already made the software crash with another way and received the warning thing, so i open it again and watch this vid on how to get to the file location and i thought you need to do the shift shift delete but that overwrite my work a blank file instead :(
    Man just start over again😂

  • @davidedemurodominijanni9889

    • @3DFluff
      @3DFluff  5 років тому

      If theres no files, then likely c4d didn't crash, something else crashed. eg if your nvidia drivers die, you wont get these files.

  • @chrisp2588
    @chrisp2588 3 роки тому

    • @3DFluff

      Should still work. If there is no file then the crash recovery system was unable to salvage the files.

    Hey so I was making a scene for someone and when I was rendering, it just froze my entire computer. Like my mouse doesn’t work or anything. So now I don’t know if this counts as a crash so I don’t know if the auto save thing activated. I worked for 5 hours and I’m scared to force shut down my pc. Please HELP!!!!!

    • @3DFluff
      @3DFluff  5 років тому

      Well not exactly the place for quick tech support... For the mouse to stop moving, more likely a hardware overheating issue or lack of system memory. You can try but your guess is as good as mine as to what will happen here.

    Is there a way to recover unsaved Takes from the last Picture Viewer session? It just crashed on the last frame. I got a recovery file but of course, there's nothing left in the picture viewer. Is there any way to get it out of RAM?

    • @3DFluff

      open c4d, open the preferences, click the "open preferences folder" button on the bottom left, then open the prefs/cache folder. If youre lucky there might be something in there.

  • @studiospeets
    @studiospeets 2 роки тому

    Another tip for heavy projects that will not open anymore; start a clean/new project, close the viewport view and then open your heavy project.
    By closing the viewport, no polygons in your way too big project will be rendered, which might lock up your C4D.
