alanmac Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 it's a one way street, VW to Cinema 4D, but you can go down it as many times as needed, in other words change the VW file and export to update the C4D one. Don't know about textures because I've never applied them in VW (not Renderworks) to basic a render for my needs. Use it purely for modeling and plans, elevations etc. Apply textures, lights etc in the render program. If you model anything to add to your scene from within Cinema, keep it out the Vectorworks part in the Object Manager or it will get overwritten on update file time. Some have said Renderworks offers better value, but it's all a question of what level you want to create your final output to. I'm bringing in Cinema to replace Artlantis as my render program because of the greater capabilities of Cinema, which if you have you'll know about. Alan Quote Link to comment
APE Design Ctr Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 I am looking to buy this plugin, Can I go back and forth between software packages easily? Does C4D retain existing textures I use in VW, or do I need to re-apply them? thanks Quote Link to comment
