1:02 Make the object editable so that you can select faces (Shortcut C).
haha indeed, forgot to mention that;)
Thanks!
Most underated tutorial channel ever
Haha, glad you think so Calico! Thanks for the support mate!
Bro I gotta say you have the most clean and clear tutorials I've ever seen!
Thanks mate, I try to keep them them as straight to the point as possible, nothing worse then tutorials that go on way longer then they need to;)
@@CGShortcuts Keep it up dude! 🖖🏾
will do, thanks mate! If you need a hand with anything or you'd like to share your work with the community, we now have a Facebook Group facebook.com/groups/CGShortcuts. Thanks for watching!
@@CGShortcuts Thanks dude will get on to it asap!
Thanks man! Really simple and educational process that also helps you understand modeling and topography!
No worries smiling dog;) Glad you're liking it! BTW If you didn't already know about it we now have a Facebook Group if you'd like to get involved facebook.com/groups/CGShortcuts. Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial! Hey, please share the lighting and texturing tutorial of your diamonds.
Would love to mate but my list of tutes to do is huge now, there's loads of tips on that one in the comments and you can grab the exact render-ready file from our Patreon page if you need it (its done in Octane). Thanks for watching!
CG Shortcuts scummyyyy
Came here for the textures and lighting. 8:06 "throw a glass material and a few lights and that's it".
Sorry Jesus, I dont go over the lighting and texturing in all of my tutorials because it's often a similar setup from scene to scene. I also use Octane which not everyone has. I put the exact setups on our patreon page though for people who need them. I'm planning on doing some more focused lighting and texturing tutorials as there's quite a bit to cover beyond a 10 minute tutorial. Thanks for watching though, hope the project file helped you out
This was a great tutorial - very helpful! Thank you.
No problem Eric
Great tutorial (nice to hear an Ozzy voice). Could you do a follow up tutorial that explains how you get gems to sparkle? I've been trying to work this out by tweaking materials, lighting and render settings but haven't been able to achieve a nice effect. Thanks
Nice! Your tutorials are really helpful.
I was looking for the same diamond modelling tuts but I can't find perfect until this.
this video actually taught me so much about animating in cinema 4d and i cant thank you enough even tho it wasnt intentional
Haha no worries;)
Hi, I'm just starting C4D and you're my first teacher in it. Thanks for your work, your videos are great!
Unfortunately, you forgot to tell that the layer needs to be made as editable so I couldn't select the cone's faces, so I had to go through other videos before I realized how it works xD
Sorry Steve, must have missed that one. Will make sure I have all the steps right next time, thanks for watching though and I hope I helped you out in the end!
Thanks, you're awesome! You did!
I ran into this issue as well! Thank you for pointing it out. I was easily able to fix what I was doing wrong!
bless you!
Awesome tutorial. So much appreciated. Thank you, great guys.
Thanks again Petabyte!
i found my favorite channel cinema 4d now

一个半成品,你所有的教程都是半成品,为什么不做整个工程,难道你只会建个模型???不会上材质?灯光?渲染?只放个模型出来,封面做的那么好,就是误导阅读量,不做完整的项目哪来阅读流量
Awesome -- thanks so much!

Would be great if you could make another tutorial for the animation, I really would like to know how to do it, but I'm currently stuck there and don't know how to contienue
Hey Ayua, I do show how to animate in this tute, check it out ua-cam.com/video/SYAiQuL2v5U/v-deo.html
Subscribed !
Cheers Haytham!
I was expecting to see the material and light settings
Download the project and you'll see
I'm trying to model examples of different diamond cuts , but it looks like starting out from the base shape of cone might be the way to go
This should be a good starting point for you;)
Useful video
Thanks for watching! 👍
how you created the material and loght for it..can you please make a tutorial on water..where a jug pouring water into glass..I am not finding suitable video like that..im asking.

I am guessing this is not a CD4 Lite tut? At the 1:05 mark I am not able to select the top of the object to extrude the polys.
Sorry Bill, I cant say Ive ever used C4D lite, Id imagine it has very limited functionality;)
can you make the material too, all your tutorial you don't uses to make the material why?
Hey mate, I try to keep all the tutorials under 10 minutes so there isnt realy time for it, plus I do all my rendering with Octane which many people dont have. However I put together a full online course that shows you material creation in standard c4d renderer, you can check it out free here on Skillshare skl.sh/2ONN6GY The glass material I use is actualy the same one;) Thanks for watching!
Please make a tutorial on the material, please. Without it it's an incomplete tutorial.
Hi mate, I dont go over the lighting and texturing every time because it's often the same process. You can get the finished project with lights and textures on my Patreon page if you need it though, they're all rendered in Octane. The good news is I'm working on a huge Octane Material course so hopefully that will help you out;) BTW we also have a fancy new website full of loads of CG Resources if you want to check it out www.cgshortcuts.com/ thanks for watching!
wonderfull

I am trying to teach myself C4D, all my training was in Maya and 3DS Max, so I have a silly question, outside nesting an object to a null, is there a way to switch between Global deformers and object deformers?
Hi Justin, I started with Max and Maya back in the day too, I think you'll pick up C4D easy coming from there. Are you talking about local and world transform? If so you can toggle that up the top next to the XYZ button (The coordinate system button) Hope that helps, thanks for wathcing!
Super bro please do more bro

Hey can you share the lighting and material settings for the opening scene for this video 0:04. ?
Hi Hans, You can download the lighting setups and materials for all of the tutorials including that one on my Patreon Page www.patreon.com/cgshortcuts. thanks for watching mate!
there are comments that asked how to achieve the material in every video I have watched on this channel~~ which means a lot of people(beginners like me) don't know how to do it. I think you have explained before that 'it's often the same process' (hmm~~I think they vary a lot hahahaha.) and that you are trying to keep the videos short(I think a little explanation on the material wouldn't make a video THAT much longer). Also if you don't include materials in the video, you would have to spend time to reply to those comments anyway(and even if people download the project file, they still don't know how to create that material). And sometimes when people follow a tutorial, they want to get the final result(what they see in the intro). wow that's a long comment lol. just trying to explain my confusion haha. and love your videos by the way. I learned a lot :)
Sorry Dong would love to go through everything for you but I just dont have the time. The tutorials take a really long time to develop, record, edit and produce. I'm also busy managing the community, our monthly challenges and a million other things. I do all this by myself in my spare time while working as a freelance artist. I'd love to do this full time and give you guys everything you need so hopefully if we keep growing that will be possible;) Our upcoming Octane course will definitely cover loads of things people have been asking for;) Glad you're loving the videos so far though;)
@@CGShortcuts oh I see~ I thought you excluded the material from the tutorials on purpose lol. and good luck with your channel !
How do I make a render equal to yours?
Hi mate, you can get the final scene file from our Patreon page if you need to see exactly how it was done (I rendered it in Octane) Or you could take a look at our full online course which covers some lighting and rendering skl.sh/2ONN6GY Thanks for watching!
Why do it empty inside when I extruded
wow
Awesome. Really like the way you explain things.
Cheers mate, glad to hear you like our straight to the point style ;) Thanks for watching!
@@CGShortcuts But you also skip alot of steps, when we stuck in somewhere between and think why our things don't work and your work smoothly, it becomes difficult to understand the Tutorial. Pls make every step clear in your videos, that would be helpful.
I'm having trouble with the creating the extra lines. I follow everything exactly the way in the video but when I edge cut the lines are completely asymmetrical and all over the place. I don't know why it's doing that
update: it was the offset setting that misplaced lines for anyone else having trouble
👍
it's a wrong move on the 3:31. you should not move points on that bezel facet or else your square will not be perfectly flat. I've done some jewelry projects for a client and that is a wrong technique to model a perfect diamond. a little misplaced vertex points will have a huge impact on the refraction if you're doing a diamond for jewelry.
Beautifully Explained but please tell me about the material in c4d
Thanks mate, I used a specular material in Octane for that one. Working on a tutorial to show this, should be out soon!
Okay thank you ☺️
Tell me about the texture...how the glass effect come
try this ua-cam.com/video/CXxjrrAcr1A/v-deo.html
Hey! What number "Focal Depth" and "Aperture" in octane camera you use?
I just crank it till I'm happy, probably had an fstop of 1 or so. You can download the original file from our Patreon page if you want to have a look at the settings www.patreon.com/cgshortcuts Thanks for watching!
why can't i live select?
I have a problem
At edge cut step
Doesn't work
There is no lines like yours
What version of c4d are you using?
Why is the animation that the diamond falls and rotates to be plain and not random? These two can have rotating keyframes
The plain effector works fine, but you can use the random if you like
@@CGShortcuts Thank you for your answer, your video is great.
For some reason the edge cut tool doesn't do anything. No clue what I'm doing wrong, I've tried remodelling the diamond multiple times but nothing seems to be working. Any ideas?
What version of Cinema 4D are you using?
CG Shortcuts R19
Hard to tell what's happening, maybe try posting a screenshot or your project file on out facebook group and we can have a look facebook.com/groups/CGShortcuts
Does this work on different type of models e.g a Torus shape?
Not really, you'll need a different technique
in the link you YOU HAVE TO BUY THE DIAMONDS
Just put a 0 in there and it's free!
how do i make it realistic, im stuck on the last tutorial but now what? pls show me
I use Octane to render all of my stuff as in my opinion it's the fastest (and easiest) renderer available. It does require the correct NVidia GPU setup though if it's something you wanted to look into. You can find more information here: home.otoy.com/render/octane-render/ and if you go down that path we have training for Octane on our website here: cgshortcuts.com/courses/the-octane-materials-masterclass/ We also hope to do more rendering tutorials soon! Thanks for watching;)
it is not doing anything with Edge Cut
What version of c4d are you using?
How do I middle click on a Macbook Pro trackpad?
figured it out, I have to remap the MMB control in C4D to another button.
3:36 how can it be close to each other not moving both point together?
Not sure I follow Dina, I just scaled the points closer together in the Y Axis;)
I just figure out iam still in scale mode, thats why 👍🙏 great tutorial thank you so much for the reply 😊
Can you explain the material?
Will have a video up soon about that Jo, I always use Octane;)
this software is funny
陈拉科 I'm guessing you mean fun? I totally agree;)
one tutorial for texture
So many people have asked so thats this fridays video, check back then;)
Thengrabing guy is very funny
Thanks! 😉
where texture? plz
I always use Octane to render these and not everyone has access to the plugin, so I dont always go through the process (as it's often the same steps each time). If you want to see exactly how I've done the lighting and texturing, all the final render ready project files (which include all the lighting, materials and render settings) can be downloaded from our Patreon page here: www.patreon.com/cgshortcuts we also hope to do more indepth courses and tutorials about lighting and rendering soon;) Thanks for watching!
i didnt understand this step 2:14 could you please make it clear for me thanks
its an option in the rectangle select tool (bottom right in that shot)
THANKS BRO !!
I stayed for the material ;(
Sorry mate, you would have been disappointed. Just a modeling tutorial that one. I go into creating glass materials prety deep in our online course which you can watch for free here with a skillshare trial skl.sh/2ONN6GY Hope that helps!
This is with Octane: instagram.com/p/BbU4oRanFWG
Mate, that's looking good, you've got some serious Octane skill there!
Why not edge select ? from 2:23
Not sure what you mean Sejun
@@CGShortcuts from dur 2:23 playing in ..select edge problem ... not edge select..why not....
Please show us how to make the materials and the lighting, never a complete tutorial :(
I'll see what I can do;) BTW If you didn't already know about it we now have a Facebook Group if you'd like to get involved facebook.com/groups/CGShortcuts. Thanks for watching!
diamond text not found >>how ??
Hi there, I just used a simple glass shader and rendered in octane. Was the texture not included in the project file?
how make text diamond on c4d
Oh do you mean you'd like to create text made from diamonds?
yes yes
You could use a cloner to clone the diamonds we made over the surface of a motext object. I might be able to show this in a tutorial soon
this is annoying, "just throw in a glass material and a few lights" good tutorial. that is the hard part.
Sorry mate, more of a modeling tutorial that one, but if you want to know how to create a glass material I cover it in our latest full Cinema 4D course, you can check it out for free on skillshare here- skl.sh/2ONN6GY Thanks for watching!

can you select faces in cinema 4d lite?
Sorry matt, i cant say ive ever needed to use C4D lite so Im not sure. You probably need the full version of C4D to do most of these tutorials;)
@@CGShortcuts yeah thats what maxon told me, too
O meu ficou parecendo um diamante inflado, mesmo eu usando exatamente os parâmetros usados no vídeo na hora de ver o render ele não marcou as linhas duras. Fiz 3 vezes pra ver se eu que tinha feito algo errado e nas 3 vezes foi o mesmo resultado um diamante com bordas arredondadas, tá parecendo que fiz esse tutorial só por fazer... ai que ódio!
Vou escrever em português mesmo e os gringos que lutem pra entender.
Não é preciso muita luta, esses gringos usam o Google Tradutor;) Não desista!

这个人所有的教程只有建模部分,封面就是骗人的,诱导阅读量,请把材质灯光贴图等工程做全,大家都期待的是你的整个项目工程,不是看你建几个模型!!!
嗨,它只是一个建模教程,我从未提及创建材料。 我使用了一种简单的玻璃材料,如果有帮助,可以在Octane中使用它
