Predominantly used in NPR or 'non-photorealistic' rendering, Piranesi also works well adding effects and interest to photorealistic images as here, in a beautifully detailed image by Jacek Mielewski, an architect at MAAG in Warsaw, Poland.
Cinema 4D R10.5 and R11
This plugin enables Cinema 4D R10.5 and R11 to render a scene to an EPix file (a plugin for R11.5 is also available).
The download contains all the files you need for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit versions) and Mac OS X.
To add the EPix plugin:
The download contains all the files you need for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit versions) and Mac OS X.
To add the EPix plugin:
- Unzip epix_cinema4d.zip into your CINEMA 4D Plugins folder.
Make sure you select the option to use the folder names in the archive if you are given a choice. This should create a folder epixwriter containing three files Epixwriter.cdl, Epixwriter.cdl64 and Epixwriter.dylib and a subfolder 'res'. The plugin will not work if all these files are placed directly in the epixwriter folder without creating the subfolders as in the zip file. - Restart Cinema 4D.
- Adjust the Render settings:
- Add the EPix writer Post Effect.
- Set Antialiasing to None.
- Specify the Image Size.
- Optionally, specify a Path in the Save Image section.
- Add the EPix writer Post Effect.
- 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 added.
Note that the EPix writer cannot produce EPix files for oblique parallel projections, such as the Frog camera.
