Installing the EPix plugin

• Unzip the file into your CINEMA 4D "plugins" folder.
  Please check you get a folder called "epixwriter" containing epixwriter.cdl, epixwriter.cdl64 and epixwriter.dylib, and a subfolder called "res". If not, select the option to use folder names when extracting.
• Restart CINEMA 4D.

Using the EPix plugin

• Adjust the Render settings
  


• Add the EPix Writer Effect
  


• Set Antialiasing to None
  


• Specify the Image Size
  


• Optionally, specify a path in the Regular Image section
  
• Render to the Picture Viewer
  
  
  The EPix writer will produce an EPix file for each frame rendered. If a Save path is specified, the EPix file will be written to the same folder using the filename with a frame number and a .epx extension added. Otherwise, it will be written next to the scene file, using its name with a frame number and the .epx extension.
  
  Note that the EPix writer cannot produce EPix files for oblique parallel projections, such as the Frog camera.
