you really helped me out cuz i dont have noronoi fracture (something like that, idk) and the c4d youtubers explains really fast and understanble instead of you. really really helpful, subscribed!
Using R21 and later you cannot just right click: To successfully disconnect polygons like this you must use menu "mesh > clone > disconnect" otherwise it will not let you uncheck "preserve groups"
I am copying every step you have here and everything is identical except when I right click and hit "disconnect" I do not get a pop up window to uncheck "preserve groups" and the effects doesn't end up working at all. What am I missing here?
+TelStewart Haha I figured my issue! With R16 and R17 when you "right click" and select "Disconnect" you have to click on the gear next to "Disconnect" to be able to uncheck preserve groups! Woot!
sorry, but i'm not not understanding what you do mean with "klick on the gear next to "Disconnected"" sorry, but i'm german, and my programm isn't running in english. Thx. JH
really great this tuto... first day learning how to do something at c4d, I got mine today R17, and following you I resolve something like ridigbody tag, there wasn't and also the ringlight. now iguals yours. after learn these steps. there's the question... how to put this breaking in a real scene? do you have tuto doing it?
You should probably mention what version you are using in the info since the version is pretty important to know because they change so much with each release. so, if you are using r16 and above, this is a fairly outdated process and you will not be able to achieve this effect this way.
VideoFort I changed the texture of the plane to glass but now I see all the cuts on the glass. How do I avoid seeing the initial cuts until the ball hits the plane ?
Is it possible to shatter custom made objects in this manner??? Not just a pre made circle or plane. When I add the "cloth NURBS" to my custom object, it makes every shatter element look bubbly and not connected at ALL.
Lets say I am trying to break a character, one made of ice, can I somehow break one of his arms, while still having full mobility and control over the other limbs? Because every time I put my character under Fracture, my skeleton duplicates, the model, the skin, and both of the skeletons go in different directions and REFUSE to be put back together.
thank you for the tutorial realy helped me although i have a new problem, is there any way i can freeze this animation during the shatter and export that specific moment as 3ds model ?
I have a problem because i want to break a plane not in the start of the objetc animation, i want to break it almost at the end but my object doesn't do nothing... Any help?
Hey! I have a question, I have a organic shaped object full of segments already, the segments are not good to produce a good breaking effect, is there anyway i could delete the segments of the object but still remain the shape to add my own segments on to it? Thx!
When I do this, the little shards will bounce off the floor how I want for the most part, however some of them will fall an inch through the floor before bouncing back up. Does anyone know how to fix this so that every shard will bounce as it touches the floor.
When I hit disconnect, the plane dissapears. When I click on the object in object window, I can see the outline of the shape but it's not present nor does it interact with my sphere. Also, when I hit disconnect or set Individual elements to all my C4D stops responding for several seconds. Any help?
Hi, I'm using C4D R 12, I followed your tutorial and some things do not work properly, like when I set the dynamic tag in the plain, hit by the sphere and the plain goes on. When the animation preview restarts, the plain did not came back to position. Btw, thank you!
I have followed this tut before and worked great. Now I need to use elements of this tut again for a project I'm trying to do. I 1st did it in C4D R15 now I'm trying it in R16. when I get to the part where I must DISCONNECT the slices using the right click on mouse option.It wont let me select the DISCONNECT option. AS IT IS GRAYED OUT. PLZ any help would be great... Thanks.
fracture its not an add-on or plug-in , you need to have it . Maybe as you hear MoGraph you go to HyperNurbs . isnt possible that you dont have it , or maybe you didnt install it corectly.
my plane doesnt break when the sphere collides. it just hits it and the plane flies. i used disconnect and unclick preserve groups. any other thing i could be missing?
+HyperTV yes. you need to keyframe it - when collision is done put keyframe to immediately, and the rest of pieces will fall. ( left from a word "trigger" at 5:35 is a keyframe small circle) so if you know how to keyframe than you will know how to do it
Octavian August thanks man! I also use the VRay renderer,and when I render, the pieces arent breaking.. if you maybe use Vray and know how to solve it as well, I'd be really happy if you could try and help me
HyperTV you're welcome. so when you preview clip in cinema everything is ok but when you render with vray they don't break? strange i render with cinema's normal renderer in PNG sequence format and everything is okay
please help me i study 3d animations and know how to to all of this but it keeps flying thru my object no matter what i click on/off i'm getting tired of this problem because i've been working more than 12 hours to fix this but still nothing
Been redoing this tutorial for over an hour, still can´t get it to work. I repeat every step. One thing I notice is that my plane gets completely white after I put it under Fracture. Dosent look the same as in the video. But I do every step right. Still it wont break. Using R17, what to do?
need some help, i notice that when i make the tag for the fracture its different from the one for the sphere (it has a different logo, more options, and best of all: works) when I copy it, it emediatly adapts to the different one, any help?
So I'm trying to do an intro where a bullet hits my text and bounces off right as the text explodes. but unfortunatly in keeps going through the text instead of bouncing off and ends up looking retarted. Could someone give me some suggestions thx. And yes i've tried rigid body but then instead of doing a fly in animation it just falls out of mid-air :P
you really helped me out cuz i dont have noronoi fracture (something like that, idk) and the c4d youtubers explains really fast and understanble instead of you. really really helpful, subscribed!
Using R21 and later you cannot just right click: To successfully disconnect polygons like this you must use menu "mesh > clone > disconnect" otherwise it will not let you uncheck "preserve groups"
Why the upper edge is still in the air? what I must to do that goes down too?
I've used Cinema 4D R13 and plugin Thrausi for same effect.
Great Tips.
Until now i didn't know about the Compositing Background tag.
I am copying every step you have here and everything is identical except when I right click and hit "disconnect" I do not get a pop up window to uncheck "preserve groups" and the effects doesn't end up working at all. What am I missing here?
+TelStewart Haha I figured my issue! With R16 and R17 when you "right click" and select "Disconnect" you have to click on the gear next to "Disconnect" to be able to uncheck preserve groups! Woot!
+TelStewart Ahhh you saved me!
Thanks! Your comment worked. It should be added as a subtitle on this video.
sorry, but i'm not not understanding what you do mean with "klick on the gear next to "Disconnected"" sorry, but i'm german, and my programm isn't running in english. Thx. JH
yes! thanks so much.
*I CAME IN LIKE A WRECKING BAAAAALLLLLL*
XD
really great this tuto... first day learning how to do something at c4d, I got mine today R17, and following you I resolve something like ridigbody tag, there wasn't and also the ringlight. now iguals yours.
after learn these steps. there's the question... how to put this breaking in a real scene? do you have tuto doing it?
3:00 what the frack
JBMB LOL
XD HAHAHAHAHA!!!
i dont get it
why i read it what that fuck?
Fracture*
this is awesome ... Thanx Buddy
So USEFUL,
Thanks for your sharing.
after 5 years later this video helps me thanks a lot
thank you, it helped to clarify some concepts for me!
After clicking disconnect it just showes the wireframe of the plane and the plane disappears, why? Please help!
awesome, I need to make an intro style video... this might make a pretty neat element to add to it.
dude you're awesome !!! i serched this tutorial for a weeks ! thx again ! :D
You click what at 2:40 am when you have done knife. Why color can yellow?
Tnx for tutorial, i like your intro!!!
You should probably mention what version you are using in the info since the version is pretty important to know because they change so much with each release. so, if you are using r16 and above, this is a fairly outdated process and you will not be able to achieve this effect this way.
This is an outstanding tutorial. Thank you!
TANKS, it is really interesting what you teach
there isnt knife in AE 2018 cc / Cinema 4d lite r19
look again i have 19 to
Thank you man, learned a lot from this. Great tutorial!
Hey man, When I disconnect, and deselect Preserve Groups, and Click Ok, THEN C4D CRASHES!
that's really works for me to complete my project
thank you so much~
What if i want the shattered pieces form something else?
how do you do the disconnecting part in c4d r17?
I had trouble too. My Line Cut tool was set to "cut" and not "split"
VideoFort I changed the texture of the plane to glass but now I see all the cuts on the glass. How do I avoid seeing the initial cuts until the ball hits the plane ?
Great tutorial! Thank you very much! :)
Great tutorial ! But i dont know how to do UV and shadow . And after take it to after effect. I wanna break a wall . Can u guide me 😢 please !!
R20 I can’t find the knife!! I tried the Line cut but it doesn’t cuts anything
Have you find a solution for that?
Use plane cut instead
Can i make this to a Greenscreen effect, make all of it green, like destruction wall of a building??
Nice job
Is it possible to shatter custom made objects in this manner??? Not just a pre made circle or plane. When I add the "cloth NURBS" to my custom object, it makes every shatter element look bubbly and not connected at ALL.
Hey I have C4D R14 and don't have the cloth nurbs, or even cloth option! Please Help!
Great tutorial.
Great video thank you
Lets say I am trying to break a character, one made of ice, can I somehow break one of his arms, while still having full mobility and control over the other limbs? Because every time I put my character under Fracture, my skeleton duplicates, the model, the skin, and both of the skeletons go in different directions and REFUSE to be put back together.
Great!!! Bella Main!
press control??
what control
my plane does not explode my version is r17 I also cant choose to switch off preserve
same problem bro ! its been three years to you , u have solution on that ?
Your intro is amazing
Is there any way you can use same exact technic but to break Motext?
Okay, thank you for the info!
Thank you so much!!!
How would you go about making some of the glass pieces break into smaller piece when the hit the floor?
How to fix the not moving parts? I mean how to make everything move after collision? The parts which arent touched just dont move
Great tutorial, can you put a link to the light ring to buy/download pls
Sure. Take a look on www.VideoFort.com under the "Tutorials Section"
Good tutorial Bro
Im running R14 on mac and I dont have the cloth nurbs option. Under simulate I only have dynamics and particles. Why is this
thanks helped alot
how did you open safe lines ?
Such a Great Tutorial, You got a Sub
"Disconnect" button doesn't do anything. i use C4Dr15 studio.
please help
rightklick, than klick onto the gear next to the Disconnect button ;D
Thanks ;D
thank you for the tutorial realy helped me although i have a new problem, is there any way i can freeze this animation during the shatter and export that specific moment as 3ds model ?
I have a problem because i want to break a plane not in the start of the objetc animation, i want to break it almost at the end but my object doesn't do nothing... Any help?
nice tutorial
Nice. But when I start render it shows already broken wall. How to start from the clean one, and make that pieces only appear after collision?
set the dynamics of the wall from "immediate" to "at collision" that should fix the problem
coolest intro ever
would you possibly be available for hire for a future project? not extensive.
Hey!
I have a question,
I have a organic shaped object full of segments already, the segments are not good to produce a good breaking effect, is there anyway i could delete the segments of the object but still remain the shape to add my own segments on to it? Thx!
which version of c4d are you using ? because i cant find clothes nurbs in r13
I download the files, thanks !
awesom ,, keep being awesome !!
I liked your tutorial, you explain everything :D
When I do this, the little shards will bounce off the floor how I want for the most part, however some of them will fall an inch through the floor before bouncing back up. Does anyone know how to fix this so that every shard will bounce as it touches the floor.
is there any way to get the broken object to reconstruct after impact?
Have you a solution for my problem ? , when a sphere crushes a plane the some of pieces are going under the floor.
When I hit disconnect, the plane dissapears. When I click on the object in object window, I can see the outline of the shape but it's not present nor does it interact with my sphere. Also, when I hit disconnect or set Individual elements to all my C4D stops responding for several seconds. Any help?

AS IT IS GRAYED OUT.
PLZ any help would be great... Thanks.
Craig Tack You have to select the faces of the polygon before using disconnect
How did you make your intro?
Hi, I have only cloth surface as an option. I have R17 can anyone help me find cloth nurbs?
No matter how hard I hit my plane it doesn't want to break, it's strong.
🤣🤣🤣
@@gorillaviewer2597 hhhhh I switched to Maya
Help me please! On my cinema 4d R14 doesn´t have the "fracture"... Can I download it?
So how would you make a sphere break once it hits the ground (assuming its falling from above)
leGianflavio just cut up the sphere instead and match the planes settings in the vid to the sphere and it should break on the floor
fracture its not an add-on or plug-in , you need to have it . Maybe as you hear MoGraph you go to HyperNurbs . isnt possible that you dont have it , or maybe you didnt install it corectly.
Hi , is this Cinema Studio ot Broadcast ?
my plane doesnt break when the sphere collides. it just hits it and the plane flies. i used disconnect and unclick preserve groups. any other thing i could be missing?
SAME
CLICK ON THE GEAR NEXT TO DISCONNECT
hey man, i see few of parts are left floating in the air after the collision. do you know how can i do that they fall on the floor also?
+1!!
did u figure how to fix it??
+HyperTV yes. you need to keyframe it - when collision is done put keyframe to immediately, and the rest of pieces will fall. ( left from a word "trigger" at 5:35 is a keyframe small circle)
so if you know how to keyframe than you will know how to do it
Octavian August thanks man!
I also use the VRay renderer,and when I render, the pieces arent breaking.. if you maybe use Vray and know how to solve it as well, I'd be really happy if you could try and help me
HyperTV you're welcome.
so when you preview clip in cinema everything is ok but when you render with vray they don't break? strange
i render with cinema's normal renderer in PNG sequence format and everything is okay
Octavian August do you have the Vray plug in?
My C4D starts to get laggy and eventually crashes when i make an object the child of the fracture, help
Mine after breaking into pieces some piece wouldn't stop spinning and some would float up in the air. Why is this?
please help me i study 3d animations and know how to to all of this but it keeps flying thru my object no matter what i click on/off i'm getting tired of this problem because i've been working more than 12 hours to fix this but still nothing
Can i change the gravity?
Tutorial de intro? esta espectacular
Intro Tutorial? Its wonderful
Been redoing this tutorial for over an hour, still can´t get it to work. I repeat every step. One thing I notice is that my plane gets completely white after I put it under Fracture. Dosent look the same as in the video. But I do every step right. Still it wont break. Using R17, what to do?
can i do this in cinema 4d lite for after affects cc?
need some help, i notice that when i make the tag for the fracture its different from the one for the sphere (it has a different logo, more options, and best of all: works) when I copy it, it emediatly adapts to the different one, any help?
edit: it changes it into a colidor body (same logo at least)
I don't see rigid body tag???? HELP
Where the knife. When I right click there's nothine there
Spectra Blaze gotta make it editable.
just click K
Click on u and then it should pop a short cuts menu and then click k (it should be k)
So I'm trying to do an intro where a bullet hits my text and bounces off right as the text explodes. but unfortunatly in keeps going through the text instead of bouncing off and ends up looking retarted. Could someone give me some suggestions thx. And yes i've tried rigid body but then instead of doing a fly in animation it just falls out of mid-air :P
when i try to disconnect the segments it disconnects just the right-clicked part!!! help!!!
how to make the other parts not hanging in the air
Where is the Knife?
how do you apply this to say car windscreen
6:36 can't you just make the object in the "fracture" thicker itself?
Great!
I have a poly model of an asteroid how would i fracture that? because im fairly sure that it wont work as well as an extruded plane XD
Keep it up
Do you have studio or broadcast?
