Great tutorial, thanks for sharing man. I have a question, I want to learn python to use it only inside C4D Do I need to learn it all or there is a partial python intended for 3d use only?
Thanks for the kind words - greatly appreciated. You don't need to learn all of Python, you just need to understand the Classes that apply to C4D (and not necessarily, all of them either). The SDK is your first port of call, along with Cineversity and, of course, my tutorials!
I have a question , its a bit tricky to understand but I am sure you will get it , Imagine I have 7 pots / boxes (all different ).they are inside a cloner and they are cloned in in such a way that every iteration is random so we get seven pots but cloned and each time they are cloned they have different placements , those clones were cloned on a floor or a surface and every time they were cloned each one would have a different seed number so that it would have different variation.This is done in houdini and really makes the copy and stamp function really powerful to add some procedural randomness.
Hello ! i just discover your channel. I have a question. I created a dynamic car and i use user data to control the motors, the steering of the wheel suspension connectors, and many other stuff (wheels and floor friction, stifness, damping etc...). It's funny to control my car in real time with the HUD but the best should be to control these user data with the keyboard. Is there a way to link a user data to a keyboard key to increase or decrease value ?
Not really. User Data can be animated using keyframes in real-time, but not interactively, using the keyboard. I have tried to do something similar, but it doesn't yield good results, unfortunately.
@@carlossousaoficial599 Many thanks. The only thing you could do, would be to use the Python Node in Xpresso, to randomly generate index values that relate to a number of objects in a hierarchy, place them in a list, then sequence though them and switch them off. BUT... This still requires Python, so it kind of defeats the object, really!
I totally don't understand, What is the point of coding with this? isn't just easier to know the program? maybe. you explained it here and it was to complex for my small brain to understand
thx man for this python playlist! you so PRO)
Well, I'm getting there!
valuable video
What you call squiggly line is a tilde, pronounced tilder.

Do you have an example scene or link to a video?
@@ExpressoMechanicTV Sure , can you tell me your email , I will email it to you(the example ) along with an explanation.

@@ExpressoMechanicTV ok thank you for your quick reply.
Excelente, tem como fazer usando Nodes?
Not as far as I'm aware. Creating lists is the key to this and there appears to be no way to do that, using Xpresso.
@@ExpressoMechanicTV Thanks. Good job.

@@ExpressoMechanicTV I like so much your videos.
@@carlossousaoficial599 Glad you do - keep watching! Another new one arrives, tomorrow.

Try doing this with keyframe animation. I promise you will understand why coding this, is a far better option.
