  1. yoyo
    this is awesome
    i hope you can give me a tutorial ?
    peace

    • Its done using the mograph module in Cinema4D. If you know the basics then its easy to understand. If you try something first then show me I could give you some pointers.

  2. hey
    i tried a lot things like: explosion explosion FX …
    and nothing worked

    • Do you have a link that I can look at? This is done with the mograph module not a deformer. First learn mograph module then I can guide you. You need to show me something so that I will know your level of knowledge. It will be a lot of work for me to explain if you don’t grasp the basics of mograph.

  3. yea i know the basics of mograph
    and i tried with the cloner object an all that crap
    and nothing worked
    can’t you give me a tutorial?

  4. No sorry I’m not into freebies. Unless you can show me that you have tried and are trying then I cant help you. Don’t want to sound snobbish but I do this kinda work for a living if I were to give you a step by step tutorial for free that would make all my work be for nothing. If you knew some basics I could tell you that you need to use grid mode and use a step effector. Where are you from? What sites do you frequent? What forums do you post in?

  5. yea i have the little cubes already
    i will send it

  6. and what did a wrong?

  7. Hi,

    I am using Step Effector and getting the desired break up and fall offs. But I can’t get the cubes to fly off, I tried using wind/ gravity on Mograph but its not working…

    • Ok something I realized that I left out was that there is a spline effector there also. You can draw a spline in whatever shape you want and then have the cubes clone along it. I think I used a sort of cork screw shape with the spline effector having about 60% weight so the clones follow the spline but are not in a strict shape. Hope all this rambling makes sense.

  8. hi

    I’m trying to build a cube with lots of small cubes (step by step). I tried it with MoGraph and a random effecter but it didn’t work out. I want the cubes to fly randomly from one into another directon and build a big cube.

    Maybe you could give me an idea how you made this up.

    thanks a lot!

  9. Hi Fred, maybe you can show me what you have so far and then I can help. If you follow the steps above from the last comments you should be golden. Also you should really check out our new site http://www.triaxisanim.com as we have stopped posting here. Good luck!

  10. hi leigh, thanks the answer. i found a solution with animated random and wind effectors. looks pretty cool! next time on triaxisanim.com.

    so long!
