Advanced Render 3
The Key to Ultimate Photo-Realism
Take your 3D scenes to the next dimension of reality with MAXON CINEMAÂ 4D's Advanced Render module.
While the standard renderer produces outstanding results in little time, the Advanced Render module provides advanced features like Global Illumination and Caustics to achieve ultimate realism.
Renderings will look even more realistic with Global Illumination (incl. HDRI), surface and volume caustics, highlights, glow and enhanced depth-of-field. SubSurface Scattering provides realistic translucent surfaces for the simulation of wax or skin.
With
the integrated Ambient Occlusion feature, Advanced Render uses the
environment to simulate shadow casting. This would otherwise only be
possible with Global Illumination. This speeds up workflow immensely,
which is especially important when a deadline is breathing down your
neck. With SubPolygonDisplacement your scenes will reach a level of
detail never experience before. Highly detailed scenes can be created
using just a handful of polygons, and rendered with awesome speed
thanks to the highly efficient displacement algorithm. Since details
are first displayed during rendering when using SubPolygonDisplacement,
you not only save precious memory, working in the editor is much easier
as well.
SKY and PyroCluster
Additionally, Advanced Render also contains SKY - an amazing tool for
the easy creation of 2D or 3D volumetric clouds and effects. SKY lets
you create to your heart’s desire. A collection of 50 presets helps you
quickly find the fitting atmospheric environment for your scene. But
that’s not all: SKY lets you create any weather condition imaginable,
“paint†clouds, and even correctly simulate the sun, moon and stars.
SKY even lets you accurately create rainbows.
PyroCluster is a volumetric shading system that uses particles to simulate smoke, dust, fire and other similar effects. Combined with the power of Thinking Particles and CINEMAÂ 4D's default particle system, PyroCluster can create truly amazing special effects.
